“Thank you and drive safe on your way home on your shitty roads in your terrible country you godcursed cattlefucker.”
I guess I have to stop saying “in a coincidence” I’m doomscrolling even when I should be sleeping and the US media has gone mask off about Iran. It’s eerily like their post 9/11 behavior. They’re baying for blood and war but pretending to be calm, even tempered, and focused on geostrategic goals.
