I succumbed to the charm of the Capitol Farmer’s Market today. Everyone was carrying around this apple cider slushy and the hype is worth it. I think i’m lowkey just trying to manifest fall though.

Really interesting look from @liz_nass at a core issue in play in the MEDC/AG/Global Link controversy.
