    ironic. teamevil censored the word "fuck".

    I don't think he believes in anything honestly. all he believes in is himself and the power he can manifest.

    I'd love to watch him in his final moments, gasping for air, begging for help. just for one more "deal".

    Feels like we're bailing out with teaspoons while the oil industry drills a hole in the bottom of the boat. If I bike to work for a decade I would probably offset one hour of this. If I'm lucky. Maybe.

    Also a ton of abandoned wells, which the state doesn’t really care if the owners leave to pump sludge everywhere.
