Indeedy. Hitler didn’t want to destroy the country, didn’t defund scientific research, had advisors who knew what they were doing, didn’t sell state secrets to the USSR, didn’t want to destroy nature… I can’t believe I’m defending Hitler.

I love that Romania declared its elections invalid because the winner had obviously been put there by Russia. Which is exactly what the US and the Netherlands should have done.

Tbh, the sense of smell and taste is a minor problem for people with long covid.

The earth will be too hot to live on in less than 50 years, so yeah… Mr. Optimist indeed.

The BBC has a great multi episode series about Pompeii at the moment if you fancy surfing the VPN seas.

My God… I can’t believe people are still saying this.

You’re STILL saying this shit? My God, we’re on the brink of WW3 because of people saying this shit.
