Trump, RFK jr, et. al., are trying to cull you and your family.
*standing up on the plane* okay, so I am going to recite "Song" by Allen Ginsberg, because the only flaw in Dayspring by @meakoopa.bsky.social is that he didn't include enough Ginsberg quotations, something that I fixed in my copy, but I digress. "The weight of the world is love. Under the burden o
