On one hand seeing the absolute depths humanity can sink to makes me want to join him but on the other hand I feel it’s worth sticking around to see just how bad it gets

Bro, I think we have front row seats to the collapse of the evil empire. That's a rare thing and you just know it's gonna be livestreamed the whole time.

I know it's a weird sort of optimism but in our lifetimes you and I are likely to witness a massive event. I have endless solidarity for the people who are just completely over it all but I sincerely hope that you choose to stick around for the fireworks, if for not other reason.

If you need some ear bleach, look up Kharii. I just found out about her and she's pretty talented I think. I'm not big into rap though. But I dig it.

“Do not kick Sgt. Vasquez out because he’s an Island Boy,” they sang in one shout-out posted last week. “Oh I know he got his DUI but give him a second chance. There’s always room for a second chance.”

If Marx knew the Island Boys were on deck he’d likely have [redacted] himself. Nobody could have predicted the Island Boys.
