One phone call and there will be north korean reunification. Orangeoutan said so!

This story is a good litmus test to see if groundnews is worthba dam. I suspect not. Anyone with a subscription care to post a screenshot?

So, xmpp, matrix or signal? Or other?

They already put a 100% tarrif on the most affordable EV (byd seagull)

Could I use that to make it listen to live music that I make during jams and help me find what would make crowds jump?

To begin with, that the offending words are automatically being replaced by “removed”

Doctor, you, me, closet, now

The federal gov has been nuked, act as if only your state legislature exist, organize unaligned party.
