The first stanza is trees of green, and the second is skies of blue, but I guess my brain mashed them together in a horrifying way

Eff it. I'm gonna ask for your help throwing myself a pity party. I found out today that my mom died, that's both parents within a single month, and I need more than just the bare minimum right now.

I need a major pick-me-up in the form of chocolate and other treats on top of my usual groceries.

Lol, he never really talked about his work, but I assume he was on the manufacturing side since he was union.

If you find yourself wanting to defend the totenkopf, might I suggest instead that you shut the fuck up forever?

I’ll never know because the idea of spending over nine dollars for a McDonald’s burger is abhorrent

The marketing person at Burger King who was like "hey, lets put out a video of our CEO eating a hamburger like a totally normal human being and not some sort of robot alien who hates the idea of food" is actually a genius.

Give that person a raise.

This is why I dropped him at the tattoo and nothing he said about it made any difference to me. Even if I’d found his explanations and remorse credibleβ€”which I don’t, especiallyβ€”it’s a massive campaign liability that I think should be disqualifying in itself

American Jews have been TRYING to tell folks that yes, AIPAC is evil, & fuck them, but Christian Zionists in the US outnumber Jews IN THE WORLD & have risen to power in all areas of our government, & they want to bring the End Times (& kill all the Jews btw), AND THIS IS WHAT WE WERE TALKING ABOUT.
