Cualquier partidario del delincuente convicto que todavía sea lo suficientemente delirante como para creer que ahora Estados Unidos es más respetado debería intentar abandonar el país y hablar con no estadounidenses.

Being in a resort in Playa del Carmen is a lot like being at home in the summer; the morning is all about Mexican dudes using leaf blowers and lawn mowers.

We're currently watching "Self Made" on Netflix and very much enjoying it. I'm sure it plays fast and loose with the truth but Octavia Spencer is terrific.
Granted, Octavia Spencer is terrific in everything she's in,

It took so long for me to realize how strong your heart is
And all this time my mind was working in strange ways
Looking back on the days, just wanna be free
Through the love in your eyes
Now I′m staring inside, just wanna be free
Through the love in your eyes
And all this time my mind was working in strange ways
Looking back on the days, just wanna be free
Through the love in your eyes
Now I′m staring inside, just wanna be free
Through the love in your eyes

Every few years someone tries to declare that particle physics is dead because it’s different from what it used to be and right now that feels a lot like people saying the academy is dying and has lower standards because it’s diversified

-If you work for ICE.
-If you vote for money for ICE.
You are complicit. This is the gestapo. You're on the wrong side. You can't pretend not to know.

Use the good china!
I found fancy fountain pen inks dried out.
That expensive liquor oxidizes and changes flavor.
The lotion goes rancid.
Drink it, use it, don't save it for a brighter day. Find joy in your world. Grab Grandma's crystal for your morning juice. Don't wait. Life is short.
