So when Art breaks up with their latest partner, of course Preston offers them a place to stay. But every time Preston imagines telling Art how […]

If it was possible to make resentful coffee, that’s what I did.

Emmalita on “Only you, Em, would refer to heartbreak as a distraction. I think I would have a more sympathetic response if I asked to marry a bookcase.”Oh my goodness, Gallifrey was beautiful. I’m sure her mittens were gloriously murdery.
