I jumped ship from Twitter just in time. That site is going down in flames.

@beefbaby182 @taylorlorenz So many dumpster fires. 2015 people were freaking out about Harambe and Alan Rickman dying acting like it was the worst thing ever. So cute.

May 28, 2016. There's a good number of people who equate the death of Harambe as the moment the whole frickin' world just went totally batshit. Rickman and Lemmy died, 45 got voted into office, and nothing has been the same since.

When future generations read about this time it will start with something like, "well, first a gorilla got shot and everybody pooped their pampers. And from there on shit just kept getting weirder."
