There's something there and it's not good.

Landlords aren't people. They know what they did.

May I ask, what are you implying on the “tags”?

You know what to do about it. About your landlord. You know what to do.

Yes. Go on. Don't be scared.

You're a goddamn machine! Never stopping, never tired!

Even clocks need to be rewound, and Engines refueled. You could take a break, if you'd like. Maybe sit down
