Fireproof. Those horrible forest fires get me every time. There's a way of building that could withstand such nightmares but we prefer our matchbox-glass houses.😔 A geodesic dome structure made of clay or sandbags on outer walls can't burn, literally.

What an ego-trip... Elon Musk has been livestreaming himself playing overpowered Path Of Exile 2 character, proudly and seriously pretending that he got there _himself_, and actual POE veterans are laughing their asses off watching and dissecting that charade. Why Elon, why?🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

All Ukrainians know who tried to assassinate our president in 2004, pro-EU pro-Ukrainian president Yushchenko. Declassified US reports confirm it was Russia. Russia is a mafiosi, terrorist state. t.co/KDWrxSQQg5
