Fuck ICE and anyone that supports this fucking garbage.

Played Rock Paper Scissors with a stranger at a stoplight yesterday (which happens occasionally in my town). Need to make that happen again soon.

Just leaving school and some little kid (5 or 6) just told me, "Get some rest, we'll be back here before you know it." Preach little man, preach.
