Questioning

We’re not changing the damn world. Have you seen the world? I promise you, if you think that I’m on some kind of agenda, then I’m really shitty at it because nothing has gone in the direction that I had hoped. I mean, nothing for 25 years. And if people think that there is some other agenda going on, all the more reason to stick to that first principle that we started with, which is: What’s funny about this?
