I have always said it, I will continue to say it, we are limiting the productive potential of millions of freaks by demanding they earn a wage to survive instead of enabling them to do whatever thing their brain is broken for

Entire planet could be frolicking in the woods and meadows but instead we have to fight fascism because far too many of you love billionaires and bigotry more than you love yourselves.

Taking a break from the sickening tragedy to focus on the beauty for a moment.
