The game of Hide-And-Seek is as old as the first day a single-celled organism tried to avoid another in a pool of primordial soup.

Guess you’ll just keep firing weapons until someone with authority says “stop”. Continue reading →

We must work together to govern the coop so all may be safe and prosperous.
