The requests were made under the guise of anti-terrorism laws

I WAS THE FIRST TO ADD A 9 TO A C NOW EVERY ACOUSTIC COVER FROM 1988 TO 2004 OWES ME $6

Sexual assault victims have a time limit. Copyright infringement “victims” do not. Tracks.

what are chemtrails, then? because the bill talks about “intentionally dispersing chemicals into the atmosphere” and to say that it doesn’t ban chemtrails because it doesn’t say the word “chemtrails” is a little bit dishonest in and of itself

every queer suicide is a murder, and the manner of death is bullying. they can make it legal to murder us, but they can’t make it not murder.
