‘A Ukrainian witch kicks the crap out of Russian soldiers’: the new wave of horror films taking on Putin’s army

The jury has been deliberating since yesterday at approximately 3:30 p.m. I have been walking in circles and squares since then. More words are flying around my mind about the hell this feels like. So close, yet so far. If purgatory were still a place, I would have landed there for now.

This is the defence lawyer in my r*pe trial. He has been stalking all my posts and media. How creepy is it that the defence lawyer became a paid subscriber to see all my paid content? I had to make my newsletter private for now to keep myself safe. I also blocked him!
