Who’s ready for Pope Pius XIII?

I get it. But I’m kind of a chaotic person and people say things that are similar to “I honestly didn’t know someone could break so many things in so many directions all at once” more often than I’d care to admit.

I’ve just found that using the chaotic energy for good takes more planning.

It takes a lot more planning.

I will keep saying, get your ducks in a row for what might come for your family and community with this administration.

Think about what you would want if water wasn't safe, if power went out for an extended period, etc.

Kinky Elmo can still happen if people want it bad enough

MAGA folk are much easier to deal with if you take them literally.
