David Simon enigma?
“Human beings—in this country in particular—are worth less and less … It’s a zero-sum game.”

Yo everyone, there is really bass-heavy thumping dance/techno music pumping through my wall out of Spencer’s room right now.
Don’t blame me. Blame LaLa and those hipsters at Pitchfork for the playlist.

Then I thought, “maybe I should tumble about this”
“but tumbling is still procrastinating!”
“not if you just do it to get it out of your system”

Happy 218th birthday Bill of Rights! →
If you’ve got a hard on for history, then you’ll join me in celebrating the signing of the Bill of Rights. (added catnip is the radio special from 1941)

Happy B-day Freedom!

Every weekend I get a little excited when I remember I can drink my shitty coffee instead of the office’s fancy bullshit. Those fucking dickheads don’t even buy french vanilla creamer which, as we all know, is The Secret. And yes, I’m referring to that self-help thing.
