I’ll have the literacy with extra cheese and pepperoni. If they made retro Pizza Huts with red cups, jukeboxes, a couple of video games, and the pizza buffet and did Book It promotions for adults, it would change the world.

We destroy the world that created us while the world we created destroys us.
We have an anti-mutualistic relationship with reality.
It seems impossible, but we’ve been simultaneously convinced that we are rats in a corner, fighting for our lives, and lions who need to remind all else that we rule this reality.
