Solvet saeclum in favilla.

Coget omnes ante thronum.

Sellin' a dream
Smoke and mirrors keep us waiting on a miracle
Oh, it's been a hell of a ride

Let Me Love You - DJ Snake


If only I could pick the winning powerball numbers, the way I can predict what people will do. The government (local, state, federal) protects the government, and we have Taxation Without Representation at every level. Everything about this country (United States) is a lie.

And if anyone wants to leave a nasty comment, like Tom the intolerant hateful bully, or wants to tell me to have gratitude, you have NO IDEA what happened to me, so STFU!
