I really shouldn't be sharing teasers given how much work's left to do, and the good chance that this becomes another forgotten experiment, but I'm pretty happy with how far I got with barely any tuning (compared to the 20-year battle-tested Puma, which I've taken some inspiration from <3).

Je deed het goed!

Aangifte Marco Kroon tegen agenten om letsel bij aanhouding Kroon wordt verdacht van het geven van een kopstoot en wildplassen. Vanwege de ernst van de beschuldiging heeft het ministerie van Defensie de militair geschorst.

Hilarisch dat Kroon ooit zelf aangifte tegen de politie deed omdat z'n pink schade op liep toe hij gearresteerd werd voor wildplassen.
