That's some alternate fact right there. Yesterday was great. Today we are just pissing in the wind. Every week in the streets or there will be no more America. Yesterday was great-today I am back to needing to get the fuck off the internet. Zero hope.

Creating wormholes to instantly reach faraway places in the cosmos.

Flying through space like a ship with an Alcubierre drive.

I could create a singularity inside Trump to pull him into a quickly evaporating black hole, but I'm just too nice.

My kids are super-obedient and always ready for school on time.

My house is perfectly clean and tidy at all times.

People on the interwebs always remember the Golden Rule while having political discussions.

Gravity is optional.

I will qualify for the Olympics and write the great American novel some day.

Bank fees and insurance are suggested donations.

The more time off I take from work, the more productive I am.

Anything that ever was free (TV, music, public land, water) should still be free today.
