Chick Chat: Funny or not funny? Hmm…

Chick Chat: Amusing Ourselves in an Alternate Universe
Ask us readers and writers what we do for fun, and we’ll probably tell you we…read. Or write. Or stream favorite shows, or cook, or take long walks, or hang with our families, friends and pets. But how do Not Us amuse ourselves in our free time? You may be surprised…
