Nobody ever thought Neil Young said that.

In general, it is not good for mobs to attack potential innocents. I learned that from a Frankenstein movie in my youth.

Thanks, I don't know too much about criticism of dental work in this developing anti-knowledge world.

Major improvement. Bamboo is a solution with potential bad long term outcomes. Good mutual envisioning and execution.

Maybe read stuff before you boost it? I felt compelled to mention this. I don't know, maybe the posts are sarcasm?

Unfortunately, there are no size upgrades available as cats grow. Most people don't know that there are still ears in the wild. My trail cams catch them, but I haven't shown them to anyone before.

Your painting is wonderful. Thank you for sharing. Must have been a challenge because the rabbit's height is so unexpected. I posted a picture of what might be the same rabbit from the trail cam the next day where it looks more normal. I think they're usually compressed so they can jump if they need to.

“Russia is a country that you can expect a lot from but not outright idiocy... Carrying out a nuclear strike will result in not just military defeat... but the collapse of Russia. And they know this very well.”

Great @ikhurshudyan i/w with 🇺🇦's spy chief

Ukraine intel chief predicted Russia’s war. He says Crimea will be retaken.

Maj. Gen. Kyrylo Budanov was named head of Ukraine’s Main Directorate of Intelligence at age 34. In an interview, he would not confirm or deny his role in the killing of a Russian operative.

Apparently, everything is available to anyone online.
