Does anyone think global warming is a good thing? I love Lady Gaga. I think she's a really interesting artist.

Even if you like Trump, it would be unkind to make him do a hard job when he’s so unwell.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast. It is not rude, it does not get you to order a 10pc Chicken Nuggets “to share” then eat 8 of them. Love does not eat all the Oreos from your McFlurry and leave you with mucky liquid ice cream.

I’ve redone my website. Now it only has a few important things on it and isn’t as butt ugly. I figured I’d better have a real place to find me now that Twitter is in tatters. Here it is: phronk.com
