“Iâ€™m actually pretty good at stripping, which makes me wonder what happened in my previous life. Funny enough, I donâ€™t wear a lot of clothes when I dance and itâ€™s very sexy, so it wasnâ€™t too hard to get into the motion of it.”

And nobody will pull down their solar panels because they miss having mercury in their tuna or asthma inhalers for their kids. Because once we leave fossil fuels behind, we are never going back.”
