Maybe we shouldn’t be able to bet on anything and everything

Where are all the emergency podcasts?

WTAF.

Ugh. Happy New War.

Seem to have succumbed to whatever lurgy is doing the rounds so it's hot Ribena and Johann Strauss...

Geekiest post in the world, but I made Dorico do this and it is beautiful.
