New 350gsm wool duvet and rain falling on the tin roof. I don't think I'll ever get out of bed again if this is the bar being set.

"Go google it" is horrible advice in an era where search engines' top results are those who game the algorithm the most, and Google tailors different search results to every user.

it's important to remember that this is war. this is violence. these people are stationed to commit violence to enforce the political will of this nation upon its populace—to ensure you don't fight back against institutional control of your body.

Just looked at the news. America is truly, irreparably fucked. What a grotesque, corrupt, morally bankrupt dystopia. I feel so sorry for people living there.
