WE ARE ALL IN THE GUTTER, BUT SOME OF US ARE LOOKING AT THE STARS OF INFOWARS

by Julie Steiner




Sandy Hook parents' lawyer says Alex Jones' phone leak contains 'intimate messages with Roger Stone' —Business Insider, August 5, 2022


Though “intimate” (you naughty thing)
need not mean "prurient,"
that word makes certain thoughts take wing
along a vulgar bent.

Your conscience frowns and shakes her head.
Although she’s tsked and clucked,
you hope these bad boys’ texts, when read,
show both completely fucked.
