@benroyce @TheBreadmonkey @overholt My daughter once asked if I’d ever known “a hippy”, and I didn’t even know where to begin. . I showed her pictures of her grandparents and me in our 70s gear. She laughed. A lot. ‍️🥳

@TheBreadmonkey @benroyce @overholt "People born in the late 1900s" has a certain sting to it.

[wendinoakland@beige.party]
