“Why was he such a POS do you think?”

“The same reason he went to Mexico every year to suck the blood from goats. For kicks.”

      So comrades, come rally
      And the last fight let us face
      The Internationale
      unites the human race

      […]

      No saviour from on high delivers
      No faith have we in prince or peer
      Their own right hand the chain must shiver
      Bound of hatred, greed and fear
      Before the thief will out with their booty
      And give to all a happier lot.

    The alert on my phone woke me up, but the grogginess from sleep and the lack of my glasses caused my brain to read “Mitch McConnell has died”, so I sat up and was like, “I KNEW IT!”

    So I grabbed my phone and put on my glasses, and saw that it was Lindsay Graham, and thought “Eh… almost as good”. Then I made myself some coffee.

          Because a senator died? How come that’s so important to you?

          Just curiousity not criticism

          Edit: I was thinking of the wrong person

                I do, actually. I’m not here to educate you on who a pretty famous (and famously shitty) person happens to be, especially when you could very easily look up one of the literally thousands of articles dominating the news today. I suggest you educate yourself-- a habit I wish more people would practice.

                  I literally said im reading about him already

                  You couldve just said hes an anti LGBTQ+ rights

                  Instead you wrote a paragraph about me being uneducated

                  Im not from the US moron so im not obsessed with your politics to the point of being woken up in the night by news articles

                  Sorry I didnt reach the LGBTQ+ rights section of his wiki fast enough for you

                  Lastly I did not notice what community I was on, my mistake obviously

    Oh, A_Union_of_Kobolds. Zombies can’t die. This is some sort of scam. If he were dead, we would be hearing the sounds of children singing in the streets.
