Because of Swerve’s music and samples from the writing well of Jeff Grimshaw, I thoroughly enjoyed dropping off my car for inspection today. Thank you, Mad Swirl and community! May we all drink a cup of kindness yet in 2026.
Thanks for giving it a listening to, Marie! Some swirling madness is an excellent way to start the new year off! And cheers to some extra kindness this year.
