As someone who lived in Tbilisi for 3 years, I suggest that all Westerners planning on visiting Georgia cancel their plans, not due to security concerns, but to 1) deny the economy your money and 2) to not be unjustly classified as "western interference" by the media.

People want to know why I'm so angry at Donald Trump. It's because his democracy destroying existence is totally screwing up my retirement plan. I never planned to be defending the Constitution against domestic enemies at my age.

musk is clearly extremely unhappy that he got what he wanted and chased a lot of his user base off but failed to account for how fascists aren't in public because they like talking to each other, so he effectively created a quarantine ward for the world's least fuckable man children to complain in.

"As for the claim that Israel is responsible for crimes against humanity and murder, it has been well-documented that the combatant to civilian casualty ratio in Gaza has been the lowest in the history of urban warfare." Umm they know they can check that, right? m.jpost.com/opinion/arti...
