Most of the elites who claim to be Libertarians don’t actually believe it but I still contend that the true believers are privileged morons who’ve never had an asswhipping or gone without a meal.

garbage, pseudo-intellectual assholes whose myopic anti-governance dogshit will have an immeasurable body count

Detail of a wall in the Borough Hall MTA station in Brooklyn, NY. Wood grain and lines of worn paint create a surface that looks almost like that of a gas giant planet.

I honestly think there is something inexplicably but utterly broken, in a symbolic allegorical manner, about the way that at this time of the year, ornamental soldier-prince nutcrackers are ubiquitous, and NOT A SINGLE ONE of them can actually crack nuts.

I just want a nutcracker in the shape of a soldier-prince like from The Nutcracker only I actually want it to be a nutcracker
