THE TOP CLASS WEDNESDAY UPDATE CANNOT BE DEPLATFORMED
What a week, what a week. We are all living through stuff that will be written about in the history books here – I mean, we’re always doing that, that’s the way history works – but even so, this was a big, hairy, two-bottle week. It’s a tale of…what, exactly? Sound and fury for sure, […]
THE TOP CLASS WEDNESDAY UPDATE IS OUT OF HERE
And so it’s nearly over, thank the deity of your choice.
