But I have plans to go rambling in England, and I'm sure the streams there will be just fine to drink from.
(Fun fact: IIRC, not only is every stream in England unsafe to drink from, but the rivers, like the Wye, have superbugs, ionophores, and diseases from phyla we don't have names for!)

Cops teargassed my whole neighborhood, including parents holding children, to crush anti-racist protests. The mayor claimed a mere list of Black people killed by the police was actually a death threat against her personally. Their definition of "peaceful" is "totally obedient and powerless"

And why, even if someone on the council owns a bit of land made up of that, you probably shouldn't buy it and build a school on it.

hahhahahah.
This fella was good with the knife apparently. He had been lured away from somewhere else and worked in the mysterious back of the fish bit. He also lasted about 1 day and a bit. The one day was training, which I was also on at the same time.
