In positive news, I am stoked to have marched in my first parade with Les Incompetents. Everyone carried an instrument they don’t know how to play and did their best to bring joy. We handed out kazoos and vuvuzelas to the crowd so they could participate in shared cacophony.

A blurry photo of a group of marchers in a Mardi Gras parade. They carry a banner between them that says Les Incompetents. They're on a dark street in the night. They're wearing yellow, green and purple some with masks and boppers on their heads. Many carry instruments.
