Stood up by my therapist, call that a psych out

I sound insane when I say this but I truly believe a big part of the Trump admin’s approach to energy policy is driven by gender anxiety. They think coal and oil are manly and renewables are effeminate.

May you find the Honey Mama to your Mr. Tony.

Looking cute acting evil

I want to rest like Mr. Tony in the shadow of a monstera leaf
