It’s a bit like when a man moans about losing the remote. 2. Nefelibata – A bit like no worries in the Lion King. It is what Sima said when heContinue reading “What a Groak”

A Signal

Written for https://obsoletechildhood.net/2024/04/03/answer-me-this-april-3-2024/ Do I believe in life on other planets?
