This is one of my father’s favorite quotes. Still on the fence.
It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops.

Better than It? I love monster clowns.
Turn your volume up and let this bump for your daily dose of living large.
Dick Cheney is Always Relevant
- DEVON: I have work at 6am. Occupational hazard of being a struggling artist type.
- NICOLE S: I don't envy your hours but at least you don't have 100-hour weeks right? That's what future investment banker types have to look forward to.
- DEVON: True. But don't you get a return on investment for your time with an early retirement?
- NICOLE S: If you don't have a heart attack first from stress and lack of sleep, yes.
- DEVON: Hey, Dick Cheney is still alive even though he literally doesn't have a heartbeat.
- NICOLE S: Well, that's reassuring. I definitely forgot he was still kicking, so props to him.
- DEVON: I don't think even death could keep Dick from kicking things.
- NICOLE S: I see what you did there.
Finally got a chance to listen to Donald Glover’s Childish Gambino EP. Holy shit. Go download it now.

But Seriously—Fuck That Guy
- NICOLE: This French douchebag called me ugly and then got mad that I didn't say thank you when he offered me a seat on the subway.
- DEVON: Fuck him. Jesus, what the hell?
- NICOLE: He thought I didn't understand French. He was mistaken.
- DEVON: We built a Disneyland Paris. It's clear who won.
Seems like a pretty straightforward route to me.
The more astute of my friends may notice that this is indeed the view from my bathroom window.

The Hazards of Caped Crusading
- DEVON: The summer must really suck for Batman. I'm not just talking about having to wear all-black during a fictional New York City's heatwave. He also has fewer hours with which to patrol the night, since the days are longer.
- NICOLE: Do you spend a lot of time thinking about these sorts of things?
Hey, 50! Teddy Roosevelt says you’re a little bitch!
I can only speculate on what he’d have to say John Boehner.
