With 5 simple payments you too can become a telepathic crispr monster (as seen on tv!) I'm going to make it so I can photosynthesize. I mean, I'll still eat cheeseburgers constantly, but I won't have to. That'll just make the dead cows/yaks/buffaloes taste even better though.

Holy poo poo, I watched Tom Cotton on the news show this morning with Stephanopoulos. It's been a while since I've seen him talk and I have to say, that guy is dangerous. He is very smooth and polished, he's very good at expressing his position in a way that is appealing to everyone. He is far more dangerous than the slim goblin Ted Cruz because he is an affable person. It's been months since I watched Sunday morning news shows. There was not even one Democrat under the age of 60 that was appealing; a journalist yes, but no politician.

Eventually we'd probably get tired of eating the rich, but letting Donald Trump preside over the complete destruction of the global economy is one of those things you only get the opportunity to do once so I say go for it.
