| 45. The people who aren't are giving me the same soulless feeling |
|
that I get from Republicans. I swear. The same exact soulless feeling, and the same utter rage at their disregard for the lives of their fellow humans.
I need to take a break from this place before that rage gets out and I get tombstoned. Keep up the good work, and I'll see you guys later.
