“They have a right to the fruits of their industry and to the means of making their industry fruitful. They have a right to the acquisitions of their parents, to the nourishment and improvement of their offspring, to instruction in life, and to consolation in death. Whatever each man can separately do, without trespassing upon others, he has a right to do for himself; and he has a right to a fair portion of all which society, with all its combinations of skill and force, can do in his favor. In this partnership all men have equal rights, but not to equal things. He that has but five shillings in the partnership has as good a right to it as he that has five hundred pounds has to his larger proportion. But he has not a right to an equal dividend in the product of the joint stock; and as to the share of power, authority, and direction which each individual ought to have in the management of the state, that I must deny to be amongst the direct original rights of man in civil society; for I have in my contemplation the civil social man, and no other. It is a thing to be settled by convention.”
-Edmund Burke.

Oh wait, he uses the term “men.” He must have been referring only to males. My bad.
I literally just finished doing this… but added the additional rookie mistake of spending 3 days. The pain was acute; the nostalgia aromatic; and the double-bourbon gingers exactly as I remembered them. All of them.
It’s a good thing you have to earn homecoming with four years of even dumber shit, otherwise it WOULD literally kill you.

“Your Love” and “Blow” back to back… nice work, McGannon.
