- Twenty some years ago I dropped off a microwave and some TV dinners to a good friend living in a meth house in the throes of addiction and mental collapse. Went home and sobbed because I knew I’d never see him alive again. Just met him for coffee and saw his 16-year chip. ❤️

- Predicted this one. After Katrina, remember the stories about emergency aid being spent on strippers and (a hot item in 2005) "hi-def flat-screen TVs"? It's a way to stoke resentment & sort people into the "deserving" and "undeserving," and lets government response off the hook.Stimulus checks are being spent on dildos, tigers, guns and stripper poles trib.al/fNwZqra
- Welp, Trump finally got the crowd he wanted on Inauguration DayHoly shit the crowd outside the White House right now!!
