This past week’s been a weird one.
Maybe it’s a spring break that doesn’t feel like a spring break to anyone who’s adulting outside of educational institutions. Maybe it’s those pig carcasses hung in protest of animal cruelty, or maybe it was that UFO sighting that freaked people out (which turned out to be helicopters)?
How should we know what’s causing it? All we know is that the vibe’s been weird and there are probably even weirder times ahead.
That said, we’d rather have something weird than something boring: This weekend’s got a Spongebob Squarepants-themed rave, storytelling sessions about doing drugs, Madonna burlesque performances—hell, even our sense of time will feel off as clocks move forward an hour on March 12 (last call's at 2am, people!).
