- Reposted by Chad D Frazier“writing is a muscle,” man i don’t know about that. it actually never gets any easier and it’s extremely painful every time. i think maybe it’s more like passing kidney stones. except the kidney stones are kind of nice to look at in the end, i guess, instead of being gross little piss rocks.

- I have 2 theories: the first, and the most likely, is they have no plans to finish rebuilding the East Wing. This is nothing more than $300 million con. The second is that Trump heard about the Winchester Mystery House and thinks he can do one better than Sarah Winchester.
