Wow. It must be exhausting being so angry at so many thing all the time. I didn't see a single comment expressing a positive vibe.
Lmao I'm not angry. Maybe you're just confused that I don't just jerk off every leftist I see?
Sorry, was I talking to you?
If you want to talk about me without me responding, take it to a dm.

Got anything positive to say?
