If you don’t believe we are all created equal or you do believe, but feel that not everyone should be treated equally you’re a supremacist, or a racist. #life #failure #racism

Someone needs to rationally explain to me why being “the best” is such an important/good/worthwhile thing. #life

I wonder if Hall and Oates ever considered naming themselves “Haulin’ Oats”… #music

Blueberry muffins out of the oven. #baking **
