"It's just what I believe," said Rocky. "It's common sense. I never was a big one for religion. Religions have great music, that's for sure, and cool buildings, but religions seem to make people fight each other too much. If you treat people and animals around you as well as you can, that's enough religion. Don't think you think?" [...] "Why does there have to be a point?"

Crashing the Oscars to commit mass hypnosis.. the obvious first step in any plan for world domination!

Wasn't planning on updating again so soon but.. everybody is being way too casual about Roger's schizophrenia 😭😭
