Today is my peaceful protest day 🤣 Do your bit by clicking on the 3 dots on “google maps” to report your concern with an error on their “maps”

Everybody has to stop being so “nice”.Call things out: musk did a Nazi salute twice & defended his actions; Trump has a cruel, vengeful, nasty agenda with a side dish of greed. It’s time to call things out unapologetically,not shake hands, attempting diplomacy that will not work. #stopaukus

Lots of fluffy exciting things happening in the IxCHeL.com.au shop with batts and fabulous support spindles with precious stone inlay! What a way to relax spinning your own yarn! #spindles #habdspinningyarn

So $trump meme coin was launched and…dumped, but wait! There’s now also a $melania meme coin…just in case you weren’t gullible enough the first time buying into this con🤣 #memecoins
