Look, Democrats.
It’s like you’re a bunny rabbit, and the Republicans are waving a carrot on a string in front of you. They make you think that if you appease them enough, you’ll eventually get the carrot. But here’s the thing: YOU CANNOT APPEASE THEM ENOUGH. You will never get the carrot! And what the hell is the carrot anyway? The 2012 election? Give. Up. You’re alienating your...

Listening
(I obviously have Arcade Fire’s EP on repeat right now.) So there’s this song, and I really like it and it has lovely lyrics, but every time I hear Regine sing the line “I’m tired of dating, let’s elope” I hear “I’m tired of dating Axl Rose” and I giggle.
