In the meantime I'll be taking an electric train to a brewery that is currently a 2hr drive from me since I'm no longer slaving away so that MIC executives can build planes that don't fly, for a war that isn't going to happen. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Truth_Hurts@lemmus.org -2 points 2 years ago (2 children) You certainly won't be doing that in America lol.
