My daughter is learning about the Great Fire of London. This is basically what happened. IN 1666 FFS.

I also had 'do we have an citric acid and that really thick glue? No you can't help it's private I'm doing it all by myself. Just give me the glue.'

A great response to this speech. When I read the example of WhatsApp, AirBnB and Spotify I was expecting another paragraph with some caveats. But...nothing. I mean, hello? Actual marches happening in Barcelona? Artist boycotts?
Thanks for calling this out.
