    I saw Watsky live in newcastle Australia last December. He gave one of the best shows I have ever seen and the after he simply jumped off the stage and said hi to everyone. He posed with fans, signed things and just stuck around until he could greet every single person in that room. He is such a legend.

      Phillip, that is not how it works. If Trump is gone then Pence takes over, and if you hate Trump you would hate Pence even more.
      You leftists are very stupid with all the threats of violence or removal of Trump, as if you do not understand that the VP takes over, then the speaker of the House, and so on. There is a clear line of succession and we do not have a new election to determine a new president in that case. Its as if you wantto change the rules to fit your wishes but want to keep the rules when they help you.

  • @panoramadrive5646

    I wish I could say that I love you with all of my heart, but the truth is
    I love you with all of my parts
    I love you with my big toe
    I love you with my elbow
    Shit, I love you with my earlobe
    I love you with my head
    Roses are red
    Violets are a blue-ish hue
    I like you one a level that two mammals under the influence of hormonal impulses can like each other when liking each other is a prerequisite for mating and further proliferating of species
    I’m a hopeless romantic, I know
    And I know that the answers are inside me- inside me but I have to ask
    Can inner children be removed by C-section, tortured for the answers?
    The thing is I smile when I remember the 12 year-old who prefaced every love poem with “When I was a kid…”
    And I love you with my bleeding heart
    I wanna know if this thing can fully un-glue ‘cause you have my atriums breaking in two breaking in new breaking in new heart
    And noose is not just a knot
    But you are just as art you lovely, ugly, stunning psycho
    I mean all breathing things will rot so allow me to decompose you a poem:
    Roses are red
    And lately I’m blue
    And lately I’m blooming
    I love…
    I love…
    I love…
    You know you’ve gone off the emo deep end when you can confuse last night’s poetry with One Direction lyrics
    But I love you with my hips
    And they don’t lie
    I mean, I really like you
    I mean, you are so fine
    I mean, girl what I’m trying to say here is that you had me at hell no
    And I love you with my heels
    I mean, for you I translated one of Shakespeare’s love sonnets into digital code
    It goes:
    01010110 010110 01010110 010100
    And that’s just paraphrasing
    This is a love poem to the one who always lets me back
    You see, I’ve been trying to find my place
    Walking these planks for a decade but if you ask me about my stage fright, I’ll tell you that it was disgusting
    But the frog in my throat ate the butterflies in my stomach
    I spit the frog out, took the leap and started trusting
    I’ve spent so much paper fitting verse to strange chorus
    I don’t know what I messed up first, my socials skills or the Rain Forest
    Dear Dictionary:
    I don’t wanna make out with you once in a while, I wanna roll you around in my mouth all day
    This is an open letter to the four-letter word and every one of its brothers and sisters
    I love you
    I love you
    I love you
    I love you
    Thank you for the memories
    It’s time to get to walking
    You’ve been right there for so long
    I’ll let you do the talking

      and only then we can have a sophisticated
      conversation.

O memories, you break me down, Then build me up like I'm made out of Lego blocks. Just hold your hands in a fist before you pull that trigger and pay attention to the lyrics, what does it mean to you. I lost all respect for myself, because I care to much about what others think...............It broke me down inside..........I didn't jump off that ledge I just pulled the ground towards me real fast. You got your finger on the trigger kid, line it up, and hit me with the truth.-A nobody
