Likes—should not be raised higher than his ankles.
Dislikes—why is he so mean?!
Likes—don’t tell anyone, but he thinks Biden is a pretty rad dude. And the ceiling has all kinds of pretty pictures on it!
Likes—he’s been so confused. Also dislikes, because, like, what even *is *the debt ceiling?

Likes—free samples!
Likes—he can stare at it and then blink cool dark spots into the chambers of Congress.
Likes—the spinning mobiles soothe him to sleep.
Likes, obviously.
