"I could've made that" he took some candy and made his lover's name known to millions of people. Made us mourn him without knowing him. I can break my back trying to master painting and it literally won't matter while Ross and his body of candies will live on forever

Trump: She picked a radical left man that is, he has positions that are not even possible to believe that they exist. He is going for things that nobody has even heard of. Heavy into the transgender world. Heavy into lots of different worlds.

California is very lovely but I am an East Coaster to my bones; give me gloom, give me grime, give me rainy nights and rusty train tracks and tall pine trees and fast paces and people who are kind but not nice
