August Feels Like This Video of a Flamingo Spinning In a Circle
It's the Tuesday of the calendar year, so get on board or get off the train, honey.
The Experts

Somehow, improbably, it is August once more—the peak of bad summer and a time that, even outside of global health crises and cataclysmic, irreversible environmental upheaval, is generally kind of blah. The promised Hot Vax Summer never really came to fruition thanks to Miss Delta Variant. Lines at the testing centers are long again, a harbinger of what could possibly be another winter of dread. Apologies to August Leos, who are indubitably miffed at the suggestion that this month sucks, but the truth is irrefutable: August isn’t great and the only thing that truly articulates the way this month feels is this video of a flamingo spinning in a circle, set to the song “Cotton-Eyed Joe.”
