Assassins is the most indispensable American musical ever written, and therefore the greatest, and I will die on this tiny hill, clinging to my tiny flag like charlie guiteau clinging to a flimsy chapbook of his own poetry
also "the ballad of guiteau" is one of the best songs in sondheim's Assassins, which is one of history's best musicals

This is why, no matter how excited you are about gay space crime, you GOTTA call it "alleged gay space crime". Until there's a conviction, all you really have is gay space accusations

Memphis is experiencing gestapo-style raids 24/7 now. Our local media is failing us and the national media is ignoring this black/blue/incredibly poor city in a red state. I guess we just aren’t as sexy as LA or Portland.
