Every country is going to end up with more solar and more WINDMILLS as a result of this illegal war, and I feel sure that was Trump’s real plan all along, right?
Pro war, anti immigration.
Pro cause, anti effect.
Actual idiots.

Two hands hold up a cat, looking straight into the camera, with a shawl wrapped over its head and a peculiar toothy grin on its face. caption" "It's dangerous to go alone. Take babushka with you."

today’s plan:
write
write

watch

all with intermittent cat petting
