You can be the one tasing them if you want

In fact, any of them who express even the tamest political aspirations should be tasered

I am going to take a massive swing here and say that anyone who rolls off the Harvard Law conveyor belt is not perfect at all and is categorically unfit for public office

I read somewhere that when you leave your cats assume you're going out to hunt, and if you don't come back soon they figure you died in the attempt

So they're probably just making sure you're not a zombie or something

Rule One: You do not, under any circumstances, "gotta hand it to the Nazis"

You'd think it would be an easy rule to follow, and yet...

Have you read THE FIFTH SEASON by N.K. Jemisin? It's exactly this from the first line

(You probably have, but on the off chance you haven't, the whole trilogy is bonkers good)

"is there anything that can be done to stop me from buying more t-shirts" is exactly the sort of thing you should put on a t-shirt

Now there are two black cats, one snuggled up on my lap and the other draped across my lap. Also please don't tell my wife that I wore my shoes on the couch, my feet were cold

That's some bullshit. A home of your own should be a human right, not just one more blade hanging from the ceiling above you based on the whims of a landlord

Good landlords are like mana from heaven: a boon for the soul but so rare that you don't want to say their name too loud or else

I think if you actually had the power they seem to think you doβ€”like if you were the person single-handedly deciding the outcome of US electionsβ€”these people should be quaking in their little jackboots rather than fouling your mentions

And taking shots at Prince, for some reason
