Chronic Portlander. Elitist trailer park trash. Aspiring burrito. Latine. I missed my Ramblin Rod moment. I ain't no follow back girl.

Dems: “You shouldn’t follow an order to do genocide.”

Republicans: “All the people who said not to follow genocide orders should be killed.”

Now that Tevis, Rene, and Sam are gone, Dan Ryan is really working hard to take over as the biggest asshole in City Hall.
