My wildest, craziest fantasy is that they won’t just be cowering in the darkness again within my lifetime.
I want them to face real consequences. I want the Nazis to hurt. I want every far-right extremist currently posting openly about their bigotry to never again know a moment’s peace.

I didn't like him before, but when I saw how "Dr." Phil exploited and treated the late Shelley Duvall, I actually began to loathe him.
McGraw is a greasy, opportunistic, con man asshole.

Purple tea! Yes there’s such a thing as purple tea - and we just got a delivery of this delightful new strain of tea! 🍃
Originating from Kenya, this purple tea is indeed camellia sinensis but has less caffeine than green tea, and yes it’s actually PURPLE! 💜

“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”
