    The KATAPHRAKTOI guarantee:
    I am not collecting information on behalf of the American government for profiling org-ers and their subversive views
    Trust me, I'm Asian hahahaha

    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.
