leaving sweet memories between your smiles and sheets
love never felt so good without me

It appears that Jay-Z and Kanye West’s gigantic tour as the Throne could lead to yet another huge joint tour, though it won’t be two huge music acts hitting the road together. Instead, it just might be two of comedy’s biggest stars

Survival’s Ick Factor →
Disgust is the Cinderella of emotions. While fear, sadness and anger, its nasty, flashy sisters, have drawn the rapt attention of psychologists poor disgust has been hidden away in a corner, left to muck around in the ashes.

I can get this crazy anxiety at times....
