Evil makes people ugly, but it keeps them alive.

“Conclusion: Stop harshing my buzz, and ESPECIALLY stop trying to tax it when it does no harm to anyone else. Looking at you, Seattle.”

What if I mix the SSB with alcohol? Surely this is a two wrongs make a right situation!

What steps can we take to have a more representative democracy while Republicans are in power? The longer they are in power, the more judges they put in place, and the less chance we have of being able to change things. What does changing our government look like?
