in case anybody needs a song about how the elite media lies to you and manufactures narratives about what is politically possible in america here’s “horseglue” by ekko astral

it's wild how riled up people are over this essentially correct post

bro did a death drop like he’s lipsyncing for the crown

A moth got into the shelter tonight and it was the event of the season.

we're watching the columbus day ep of the sopranos which is somehow presenting the same arguments I read online like last week

I hate that silversun pickups song when that guy comes in shouting "SUNSHINE"
