I can't imagine Trump appreciating a natural setting. He'd have to scrape it empty of life and cover the exposed bedrock in gold leaf first.

The idea that the "freedom" to remain unperturbed by the presence of people who are different is somehow more important than the freedom to actually be different is insane. I dream of a nation where we are not stuck perpetually re-litigating the sexual revolution. It's my entire adult life, so far.

Given my dreams of what the future would be like as a young-un, I can't believe it's the 2000s *and* we are collectively stupider than ever. But then I guess we do have a lead-poisoned generation in power now.
