The Angry Man in Your House
"If you grow up with an angry man in your house, there will always be an angry man in your house" This statement has caused plenty of controversy online, people say its a statement that blames victims while also undermining those who break traumatic cycles to form health relationships... but if I'm honest now that I'm in my 30s it makes more sense to me than ever, and I'd argue that its not just about fathers and uncles.

Another Paulindrome! There I said it, hehehehehehe 🍩🥐
Admire how you capitalize on the positioning of each word in these! Another triumph!
As Rachael says, may you long remain itchy!
I like these scratches. I hope you remain itchy.
Just keep going and see where it all takes us. Very nice, Paul.
Inspiring- woop woop! There better be some good stuff up ahead then! 😄
This reminded me of a favorite poetic line: ‘Because I could not stop for death, Death kindly stopped for me.’ All is awaiting. Hopeful and terrifying at the same time.
