This would a very concerning realization , unless you start to realize this has been happening for along time .. :evil:
And actually doing something to help it change, will get you branded by the Gov. as a bad person. Potentially earning you a time in prison or death . based on first hand experience. With my late husband . :skull:
And if I or anybody could figure out a peaceful transition of power, might be very supportive of that circumstance.

If their be aliens, they have been here along time .

Poor people who exist as poor people, especially the working poor - are those people who enable the rich to keep on being rich. If there were a death penalty for the working poor, the rich would become less rich, so I don't see that is going to happen any time soon, at least. Until maybe human-level robots are able to do all the necessary grunt work that is done and humanity becomes expendable, or something like that.

I think there's a ghost of a dead chicken in my flat because even since I put the chicken in the air fryer mysterious things have started to happen

Poor chicken...not only it has to put up with a disembodied chicken spirit , but has to endure its buddy being cooked.

No I think I know what it is now

It's my stepdad from beyond the grave because I bought a poinsettia plant for him today and it's in my flat on the table

So he'll just be showing me his gratitude

My kitchen door started opening and closing by itself and then my daughter's old tobacco tin flew off the table and then my big exercise ball just popped and my picture blew off the wall

So what do you think about that then

I question whether all of this happened? If you'd have said one of those things had happened, I might believe it. :P
