If the United States had just one neck, make no mistake: Donald Trump would break it.

He is our Caligula.
The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

A librarian asked me to come up with a title for a book about improvised weapons. I suggested 'Shiv and Let Die.' #WritingCommunity

I just saw 'Late Night with the Devil.' Wow. 🤯 This film's amazing! I had to watch it twice. 10 out of 10.

In a better time, this film would have won Oscars. I honestly prefer it to 'The Exorcist.' #FilmSky
