I am praying 🙏🏾 this testing is super successful.

For what it is worth, I do wish we had more rocket companies launching mega rockets which are designed to hold more than a dozen people (I am looking at you & !!!).

cares so little about that they've been spending MILLIONS on pumping out global digital ads campaign. I saw 2 while playing my regular Word Yahtzy on the weekend. You know who else is pumping mass digital & ad campaigns at same time? & - neither should be trusted.

Pimping propaganda isn't what ethical folks with strong morals & ethics would EVER spend millions on.

Corrupt folks need propaganda to survive.

At least the second protest in as many days was being held outside of the building at 2121 Crystal Drive today. The midday protest featured about ten demonstrators carrying flags, holding signs and conducting a “die-in” on the public sidewalk.

As some of you may know, my uncle who passed this year was a Middle East correspondent covering the Iraq war. He lived throughout the Middle East and his widowed partner is still in Lebanon.

I think english politicians will escalate to neighboring countries, possibly using Putin as a foil for total war.

The Iraq war lasted 20 years. Wars are never short. All we know is cunts profit. Can someone make a Kier Starmer portfolio tracker? :pol:
