Vapor Weyve @NymphomachyReplying to @mssilverstein @loudpenitentI don't accept that there's anywhere in rural Kansas multicultural enough that white af Clark could be raised there and not develop some serious blind spots that would ultimately lead him to do abominable things I don't accept that Kansas even deserves to be celebrated that way6 replies 1 retweet 36 likesShow this thread -
