the racists. Or they found us or something. But if you'd like to contribute to the renaming of monkeypox, I think it's fertile ground for humor. So can somebody maybe start a tweet thread? I should have done it myself. On the Locals platform somebody suggested renaming it to crackerpox. I think we can close the competition. I think crackerpox just won. Oh my God, that is funny. You know, and it'…

I think, well I've got to do something about this. But then the very next story I read I think, well I've got to do something about that too. There are too many things to do stuff about. They've basically overw…
