    As you likely know by now, Jelly Roll has undergone a dramatic body transformation, losing nearly 300 pounds.

The totalitarian impulses that resonate from these individuals are alarming. Americans, on the whole, are ripe for lording it over everyone else, and they have no problem making arbitrary judgments about the needs of others while...
