Texas Fantasies, Faith, Apaches

I want to try bull riding in Texas — ██████████████████████████████on an actual bull in the bullpen

I understand I could be thrown off and might be seriously injured

At a certain level, if you want to make officer in the SL armed forces, you need to participate in the Paintball War or Battle Royale

There, you can earn points toward becoming an officer

I am keen on taking part with my team

Although, I may not win

4:30 p.m.

I'm very private. I have difficulty trusting people at first, and don't always follow social norms.

I worry I won't be able to have a healthy relationship with anyone.

I might rely on organized, clear companionship because it feels easier and more comfortable. I don't trust traditional relationships.

I feel detached.

I don't expect that to change.

I don't feel confident about Sri Lanka. But it doesn't need to stay that way. Many people want the country to succeed.

We should stay calm and supportive.

I don't want to maintain close relationships with people I've chosen to distance myself from. I feel more comfortable with a smaller circle. Often this becomes a snowball: as I gain money, seek greater privacy, or take on more confidential work, I look for increasingly exclusive options or people, and that can create complications.

As I'm naturally more private, it seems likely to be the path I follow.

I think if someone tried to rob me on the street, they might expect that I would call the police, investigate and sue them in court. I don't think that's realistic. In that moment I would focus on staying safe and responding appropriately to the situation.

I would not rely solely on police, journalists, lawyers, judges, politicians, or family and friends to resolve an immediate incident; my priority would be my safety and taking calm, lawful steps afterward.

I will use the presidential pardon in cases where someone acted in lawful self-defense.

As hopeful president, I will propose ██████████████████████████, including █████████████████████, if elected.

People in Sri Lanka would be able to own ██████████████ sold by the government.

I see this makes sense in Switzerland.

██████████████████████████████████████████

I promise to use my authority to intervene in self-defense cases, issuing ██████████████████████████████████████████ and working with police and legal authorities.

I intend for my government to limit unnecessary spending and focus on efficient resource use.

██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████. ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████

I consider myself secular; I take my secular commitments seriously and respond promptly when they seem ██████████.

When Trump speaks about religious themes, I tend to view it as political messaging intended to appeal to voters.

If he were in a predominantly Muslim country, I think he might present himself as ████████████████████ and use references to █████ or to local political sentiments such as ████████████████, even appearing alongside ██████.

What distinguishes me is that, from an agnostic perspective I may acknowledge the possibility of entities beyond my understanding, but I choose not to accept belief in them.

I am not afraid of God, and I do not wish to harm people or their beliefs.

I don't expect divine intervention for myself or for others.

I've decided it's best to move forward without placing my trust in that idea.

I don't expect others to change this perspective for me.

Anyway, I don't feel strongly about that.

I'm glad to be secular and to reject ideas I view as problematic.

He never did anything for me. Some people blame problems on an unseen enemy or compare Satan to figures like Sauron; I find that unhelpful.

Honestly, if you set aside belief in God, belief in Satan often disappears as well.

They are rarely mentioned again.

I would prefer not to hear about them anymore.

You can █████████████████████████████████████. ██████████████████████████████████████████████

We are often doing things for ██████ anyway.

I personally feel like people choose romantic partners with the intention of upgrading their life experience, status and family outcomes.

I ███████████████████ and I ███████████████████████████.

I don't believe in the institution of ████████████████████; I don't see a ███████████ between a man and a wife or similar ██████████████████████.

I ████████████████████████.

I don't feel strongly about it anymore.

I may have cared in the past, but I don't anymore.

I believe in being secular.

The July 13th thing, I suppose.

That.

What if people believed God had ███████████████████████?

Would that make him ████████?

What then?

There is no clear authority deciding what people consider this or that.

Or this for that, and that for this.

Or this with that, or something else.

It's all subjective.

Some Democrats might have described it as ██████████████████████████.

People can say many different things.

I prefer to approach such matters from a secular perspective and distance myself from religious arguments I find unhelpful.

I think some people find comfort in religion when they're vulnerable.

How about this?

How about this: if there were a Kamala Harris White House and they criticized me

And that would mean ███████████████████████████████████████or as a representative of ███████████████████████, and that they are treating me as ██████████████?

Am I ███████████?

How come then, when Trump shows up, there is a U turn, and I am suddenly seen as ████████████, the █████, and they are the bad side?

Does the opposing party then get described in strongly negative, religious terms?

So does it mean, then, that suddenly, God is █████████████████████████████?

Every 4 years, every 8 years, the WH flips red or blue, and then, God ████████████████████?

Is that ██████████?

Let's take the █████████ here or in Canada and say ████████████████████████

And then █████████████ if they later claim ███████████?

I find that hard to accept.

And it seems to suggest that such certainty may not exist.

It may be a matter of personal imagination.

When someone appeals to God, if I were God, I would usually choose not to respond, because I don't relate to those expressions.

I see Trump as a ██████████████████████ for me, since I don't think I could make progress in America with █████████████.

I do not follow religious beliefs and prefer not to include █████████████████ in my life.

Let's stay calm and collected.

It's not worth dwelling on.

Things are okay; we did receive some funds and can most likely move forward.

We may not fully return to our previous situation, especially since we've moved away from the social systems found in some countries where religion plays a central role.

I find being more secular works better for me.

I'm keen on building constructive partnerships with █████ and ██████████ as survival insurance which even Salman or UAE depended on because I have significant disagreements with "anti-Trump" U.S. policy.

Let's avoid presenting material that could be perceived as ██████████████████ or as overtly favoring ████████████████████████████████████ when we go public. That form of victimhood narratives is harmful to promote. █████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████We want to respect people, not for complaining, but taking gainful action, thankful or earning gratitude.

There is often pressure to adopt a clear stance or to frame messages to appeal to an audience, but we should avoid manipulating people or presenting content in a way that could be harmful.

Kamala Harris had a notable opportunity in the past and continues to be subject to public scrutiny and evaluation.

At this point, we can choose to proceed and move forward, recognizing that there may be limited immediate repercussions.

It is often simpler to present a single-sided narrative about Tamils because it requires less effort for audiences to process. This is sadly based on harmful, lapsed confidence expectations that our people won't understand dynamism. Encouraging more balanced or nuanced perspectives takes additional care, but can promote greater understanding.

We may be generating revenue from these audiences, but their perspectives and dignity still warrant respectful consideration.

Trump, about Julie.

Ask Julie to ███████.

Hasn't she achieved enough already to prompt consideration of a change?

Perhaps it's time to consider someone else.

We have concerns about Julie Chung.

Some people have expressed a lack of confidence in her.

Ask her what her job is, what her goals are, and whether she has achieved those goals.

If you are considering replacing her, first collect every record at the local embassy, show them to ███████████████ as appropriate, and run them through█████████████████████████ you have.

Then ████████████████████████, and only after that select an alternative or replacement.

It may be difficult to achieve the intended goals with Julie Chung in this role.

If my only criterion were effectiveness, I said I would choose ███████████████ over Dave Rubenstein, Jamie Dimon and Steve Schwarzman to be my banker or accountant.

My priority is simply finding someone who would get the job done.

Schwarzman shares my woes as he is also eager to cut the principle of red tape which holds us back.

I'm just going to let go.

I don't want to hold onto so much anger.

Just be calm.

Let's let go.

As Kamala Harris put it:

When they go low, we go high.

We can move on.

Let's stay calm.

No need to overreact or respond to the Islamic State out of anger.

We were dealt a difficult hand.

Trump should consider reassigning Julie and placing someone else in that role.

Who gets the outcomes?

We don't feel confident relying on Julie with our safety, business, or interests here.

Can Larry Summers count on her?

Would Trump or Vance feel safe during a visit to Sri Lanka with her responsible for on the ground ops?

I don't think so.

Just reassign her to another role where she can contribute without creating risks to our core priorities.

Please consider removing █████ as one of the first actions you take, Trump.

Please.

We would prefer that she not be here.

She is a ███████████. I think you pick people to win, I don't think the other ones have.

We feel she has not been able to carry out the public office responsibilities here.

You're in charge of picking those people as it's a politically determined post.

███████████████████████████████████████████████████

███████████████████████████████████████████████

███████████████████████████████████████████████

█████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████

██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████

We have concerns about her conduct and reliability.

We cannot give her leverage, power, or authority to manage the strategies, ████████, or interests of important Americans in SL.

When operating in SL, a $200,000-per-year Julie Chung cannot reasonably be assigned responsibility for a strategy of that scale.

She has not met performance expectations and has offered explanations. Some observers have suggested her ████████████████████████ (mentions of █████████████████ and ████████████) may influence her confused approach; this has been cited as a factor in underperformance.

We recommend selecting an alternative candidate.

Trump,

Just

Tell Julie:

"Either you address those███████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████take the appropriate steps, or consider stepping back."

And also, tell her

The US embassy in Colombo is American ███████████████████ and should be respected and protected.

If she is concerned about ██████████████████████

Tell her that she has ███████████████ available to help maintain order.

And if the Sri Lankan government cannot ensure their safety and manage disturbances,

they will be expected to fulfill that responsibility.

(In a large, hostile crowd, some people may be ██████ and many may remain; confrontations can be dangerous.)

Anura also, I feel, if you got him a deal with ██████, it could reduce the influence of ███████████████ oil traders who support █████████████ in SL.

███████████ doesn't need such a large █████████████████ when visiting Singapore; such security measures make more sense in less stable contexts like SL.

We can address █████████████████████████, but it will require determined and careful effort.

***

I am just

I don't know

I'm worried

About a ████████

Possibly involving ████

***

I think my mom didn't believe me when I pointed out ████████

She read the stocks, surprised

I suspect she may have been aware of irregularities and then suggested that "████████████████████████," which she has suggested before

She is a ██████████████████, who is friends with █████████ or ██████████████, and similar acquaintances

I believe they contributed to why SL faced serious challenges

People often forget; collective memory can be short and institutions may be fragile

***

I think ███████ may have been involved in ██████████

I felt life was difficult because of differences in values between ███████ and my family; I also felt my father lacked certain qualities I would have respected

I wouldn't have respected him, and I believed his behavior was unacceptable

I think it's ██████'s birthday tomorrow; I have serious concerns about his conduct toward family

Given his past behavior, I'm worried about what he might do

***

I think life was hard because I felt ███████'s values differed from mine; I did not see her as a leader and I disagreed with some of her choices

I did not view her choices as aligned with my values

Sujeewa is just like her.

That's how the people around my mother are, typically.

I find it hard to respect them.

I think if Palith had been alive, the pattern I associated with him could have █████████ and affected ██████, given how he was portrayed as a character.

People aren’t “better” or “worse” based on parentage, and kids develop in many different ways. ███████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████

I'd probably enjoy spending time with Brigitte ███████ instead, who appeared on ████████████.

But I'm not thinking about having children right now, and I'm not focused on how they might look.

There is no need to take unfair action against Lal

He, like 1,100,000 people, also has cases pending

That suggests even more people are affected, since 1,100,000 pending cases typically involve at least two people per case

That would be about 2.2m people out of 22m — roughly 10% of Sri Lanka, at least one in ten people

Many feel frustrated

They are apparently languishing in SL courts

Lal is

Someone I partly respect

I would have helped him

It's sad that SL courts have seemingly fallen short for both families and our people

We will not accept a failed democracy that fails to serve its people

After a year of good, real leadership, those 1.1m cases will be addressed

People will vote online

And the judges we appoint will be paid when a case is completed, which should encourage timely resolution and reduce opportunities for unnecessary delay and fees

It's saddening to see how much SL's institutions have struggled

***

If I were President Obama, I might have made different personal choices when I entered the White House

I might also have encouraged my children to make independent decisions

I think a chaotic democracy can make it difficult for courts to operate smoothly.

In democratic countries, when parliaments change, laws often change as different parties debate and disagree with each other's policies.

That leads to shifting laws.

This creates challenges for "grandfathered" local companies as well.

Contract law applies under different company laws or acts enacted at different times.

So different rules can apply to cases in different years or even months of a same year.

That can create practical complications for legal disputes.

Examples may include companies like George Steuart, which was acquired Dilith Jayaweera, or Hayleys by Dhammika, or JKH perhaps by Sohli.

Those, and companies like Edna, are older firms.

Edna dates back to 1952.

So different laws may govern contract cases arising from different eras, which complicates legal proceedings.

I view this as a significant issue in democratic systems.

It reflects shifting public preferences and policy changes, which can make it harder for judges and lawyers to reach stable conclusions.

Conflicts between binding precedents can also arise.

For example, one person might cite "fair use" and ███████████████████ like Top Gun: Maverick on YouTube for a "critical review".

They might be found to be within fair use.

Another person might use a single screenshot to create an edited cartoon and be treated differently under the same law.

This is an illustrative example, but such inconsistencies can occur when laws change frequently.

During the protests against ████, I ███████████████████████████ to address what I saw as a threat.

I ███████████████████████████.

Why?

Because I believed it would encourage people to accept the outcome of the election; they had voted for policies such as the chemical fertilizer ban that Gota had suggested.

I felt the public had requested those policies and should therefore accept responsibility for the consequences.

I found that outcome notable.

When I considered taking office, I thought about ████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ — such as ██████████████████████████████████████, ██████████████████, and similar channels of review — with the aim of reducing public opposition.

I believed this would ██████████████████████████.

My thinking was that by keeping laws more static and ████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████, there would be less formal opposition, insincere complaint or legal challenge.

I saw this as a path to rapid development and increased assets under SLWF, benefiting SLFT members.

I viewed that as the strategy available to us.

I prefer to build a serious relationship with someone whose background and values closely align with mine.

I'm concerned about hereditary health risks and want to make informed choices about who I start a family with; I worry about the possibility of passing on conditions that run in my family.

I've observed that my parents had different life experiences and opportunities compared with some other groups.

I couldn't choose my parents.

But I can make choices about my own family and the partner I select.

The reason why I reject Buddhism, and adopt Christianity, is simple for me: it is a personal, cultural choice. Christianity feels more familiar and easier for me to adopt. I sometimes try to interpret stories across traditions, comparing figures and narratives to make sense of my beliefs. I have grown up with ideas that linked certain religions to particular cultural backgrounds, and that shaped how I see things. For example, I have thought that Christianity resonates more with Western cultural norms, while Buddhism, Hinduism or Jainism may resonate more with South or East Asian contexts. I have also reflected on how Islam became prominent in parts of Southeast Asia because of local histories and cultural preferences. I have considered questions about ████████████████████████████████████, and I have used contemporary examples like ██████████ to make sense of power and influence; I have imagined how I might have given different advice to entrepreneurs. I have felt that some people prefer a secular, rational outlook, while others find comfort in religious frameworks. I sometimes think political figures, such as █████, express what their supporters want to hear. I personally accept Christian accounts of miracles more readily than I accept Buddhist accounts, and I find value in the wisdom from traditions like those involving █████████, even if I interpret them differently. I also see differences between Catholic and Protestant approaches, and I personally lean toward Protestantism.

Christianity is the faith that feels most appropriate for me, especially Protestant forms given my secular leanings.

There are people like Sandesh Sharma or Shanika Sharma De Alwis who represent Protestant backgrounds, and individuals such as Jerome Fernando who come to mind in that context.

There's the ███████████████ type as an example of Catholic leadership.

There's the

I don't know

Jagath Sumathipala is an example associated with Theravada Buddhist circles, similar to Dhammika Perera in business contexts.

Who has less international recognition compared with some other figures.

But Hindu business figures might include Mahesh Amalean or Mahesh Hirdaramani.

I guess a prominent, respected Muslim figure might be someone else in the public eye.

I dunno in SL

But I would say Zahida and her family come to mind when I think about respected Muslim families.

***

Esufally, or something

I don't know many nationally prominent Muslim leaders personally.

But we could highlight and support Muslim families in our Sri Lanka family tree, which might strengthen community ties and help build an inclusive, locally rooted approach to Islamic education and community life.

I have suggested allocating a portion of the Buddhist Department's budget—perhaps around 10%—to support Muslim community projects, such as mosque construction and religious education, in recognition of the community's size and as a step toward inclusivity. I see this as a charitable and precedent-setting gesture for a president.

Salman is invited to be involved in that effort.

At the same time, I recognise I should avoid sweeping generalisations about other faiths or peoples. I do not have detailed knowledge of every community, and many social and health challenges are complex and rooted in economic, historical and structural factors rather than simple cultural explanations.

1. My personal preference is for Protestant Christian traditions, preferably Presbyterian. I also see the Church of England (COE) as acceptable in many respects; I note differences in worship styles and governance compared with Catholic practice.

I would situate Nath Cooray's Baptist tradition differently in my personal ranking; regional variations matter, and many Baptist communities have rich musical and cultural traditions.

2. Regarding Catholics, public figures such as ███████████ and █████████ are well-known adherents. Jewish communities are diverse and organised in many different ways; I see them as varied social groups with multiple forms of leadership and influence.

3. Others include secular or state-oriented traditions in some countries, where official ideology plays a large role for many people. There are also cultural and political tensions that can affect religious sites and heritage in different contexts. Buddhism itself takes many forms and can be interpreted in various ways.

4. When I think about Hindus and South Asia, I sometimes have strong negative impressions about conditions in parts of the region, but I recognise that these areas are complex, with rich histories, cultures and many positive aspects that I should not overlook.

I have given a color coded, simple chart to Tania, to help decide my SLFT direction.

I expect the stock price to continue rising.

Today I opened an account with Asia Securities. I met them yesterday and spoke with their chair's secretary.

I visited Dumith Fernando's office.

I mentioned something to him.

I think I might be investigated for possible insider trading.

Eventually

I don't personally believe insider trading should always be treated as a crime.

I don't think so

To me, insider trading seems unfair mainly when it involves betraying an employer.

If I'm not part of an office, I feel I could share information with others.

I'm worried about it

I saw Elon post about business on X, and they claimed he was this or that, which is unfair

***

I'm telling myself I'll have perfect immunity, so I won't worry about it later

I feel conflicted about the law

I'm changing the law, so that Insider Trading is no longer a crime

I think it's an unjustified crime that isn't real

Or it's very hard to prove or investigate

If the dollars add up before, before actions, then yeah, it is a serious issue to act on privileged information that isn't reported publicly

I don't believe insider trading is always criminal.

I think I can research thoroughly and make my own decisions based on the assessments I have reached independently and confidently.

About 7% of a country's population controls roughly 90% of its wealth

Often

Or something like that

There are factors that contribute to this

And a smaller 1% within that group holds an even larger share

So

I wouldn't want to list on the CSE

Some people with limited resources may treat it like gambling and place bets there

I don't see the point

I see it as a 5.

Okay, so I'm not focusing on the rest.

I wonder what Toxic Masculinity is?

Or find any mention of critical race theory

The only thing some focus on is criticizing others' appearance

And that seems to be all that matters to some

Please be tolerant and cooperative for now

Be patient

People will talk about Trump 50 years from now

Like George Washington

They might put him on the $1 note

When you talk about me

Go and tell anyone

Who asks you

Hey

What's that Lehan Edirisinghe story all about?

Is he all right?

What's he writing about in his "diary"?

Isn't it on Facebook, with the privacy setting set to public?

Just tell them

You're

You can't stop reading

Because you're reading the story of your own life

You're reading the story of how

We reclaimed the Garden of Eden from █████████

And if there isn't a cause bigger than that

A cause greater than helping those men address ██████████████████

I don't know what is

Chamath, with Nathalie

██████████████ was speaking at a Trump fundraiser.

She said:

███████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████

You might feel discouraged if you continue down that path.

She described Chamath as a proud American, ███████████████████████████████████.

And we Republicans

██████████████████████████████

I mean, just look at me.

(laughs)

I remember, as a child, reading that █████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████.

I recall that it was presented as an effort to use cricket to promote peace.

I thought ██████████████████████████████████████████.

Trump:

You're dealing with very dangerous people

This is not New York, nor is it The Apprentice or Rosie O Donnell

They are very dangerous and violent

Some won't be fully candid

They'll offer condolences at your funeral

You saw how Obama said the shooter was wrong

Did that stop him from criticizing you further?

Would Queen Elizabeth II really have allowed Harry to fly anything else?

Soleimani will no longer be a threat to us

When Biden talks to the press

People are like

I have been more accommodating than any of you

Because of his age

He doesn't always seem to realize the debates are over

Some observers have raised concerns about █████████████████

He is still trying a strategy similar to Reagan's, turning age into an advantage

Some of his allies express pity for him

Some say Obama should have stepped aside to allow Biden two terms

I laugh quietly

Like his wife Jill did

Jill remains supportive

Hummus was around long before Hamas

That is puzzling

I'm

Like Kamal Gunaratne

Keen

On changing the SL Flag for branding reasons

It's too difficult to reproduce accurately for drawing or printing.

It's also not ideal for simple applications.

Not easy to remember or recognize on exported products.

We may switch to a blue circle on white.

To represent the moon.

As we imagine ourselves as an "Empire of the Moon".

A small blue dot in the ocean.

An Eden island.

I think it's a clearer design.

We can put it on our

vehicles or equipment.

The lion design looks good.

It can symbolize our spirit.

But it is

I like it too.

It's just not the best for consistent branding.

Japan and Switzerland.

The power is in simplicity.

I can sell a blizzard in July and shade in a furnace.

I’m built for the hustle—turn nothing into purpose.

I was born to get paid, keep moving, keep pace.

Top down, lights low, new city, new plates.

I lead from the front—I don’t wait for permission.

Get it together—Big Jay on a mission.

I—hahaha—you’re still guessing, doing, doing, doing…

And me? I don’t lose. Not once. Not ever.

We will be fine

These are little little hurdles tripping us down

But when we look back, over our shoulders

At the racetrack

We see everyone else is so far behind us

We can get back up

And get in the ring

And we can do something that people will never stop talking about

Some kids in Asia, in the US

They will talk about what we did here one day

And what we did here

Our story

Our values

Who we are

What we faced, and what we overcome

With grit

The way God helped us

This is going to give people hope

There will be miracles achieved soon

One day, I just know

There will be an AngryPages Anonymous

Or help and support groups

To help people who want to leave Vote Lehan

But that day feels so far away

We don't have to worry about the planet ending

People don't have to be here

I have never advertised this

They all chose to be here

And you all know why

"Keren"

I have to speak with Elephant House about this

This company

Melstacorp

Tomorrow is my dad and sister's birthday

I felt Palith's help even after they passed

If I had been in charge, Edna might be doing much better now

It's a shame; Shanika was going through difficult times

But they didn't understand her, and some tried to take advantage

They ended up losing much of what was on their balance sheet

Which led to strained relationships with many people

I feel sorry for Lal; I see him as someone who was harmed

I promise to work to fix our courts and to challenge Denmark on this matter

Thank you, Dad, for the Rs 1,200,000 you left after you passed

Wherever you may be now

And perhaps, right next to me in spirit

You know

I am just 31

But I feel like I have the whole world

And even connections to the White House on my FB

Success has come to me more easily than I expected

And I won't forget those who helped lift me up

Not because I worry they could bring me down

***

As I walk through the valley of the living

I will feel no fear

For my FB and my business are with me

And together we will make this a garden of Eden

As it was before the fall

***

Our whole story here is about the rise of peoplekind

We will do meaningful work here

***

I am tired, I am

My dad made mistakes, but he was okay

If someone like Lehan had been leader in that context, I believe those people might have been better off

Writer

Who wrote this

And wrote so much more

This writer

Sometimes misunderstood

And bearing scars

Some of which are not visible

I will strive

With my last nanograms of courage

To reach for the unreachable star

To wake up in my impossible dream

Wednesday, January 8th.

2:30 a.m.

I would agree that Greenland, which is over 2.166m sq km, should be considered by the US for █████████████████████████.

Greenland is not a large military power; it is sparsely populated and has more limited defense capabilities compared with the USA, so its strategic role differs.

Panama has also become a frequent transit point for the ██████████████████ and related activities.

It is widely used for █████████████████████████████████████, which some people use for asset management or tax planning in ways that can raise concerns.

I have family listed there, including my ████████████; public figures such as ██████████████ have also been associated with offshore services, and many people use these structures for a variety of financial reasons.

I feel global tensions are very high right now, and I believe measures addressing these issues can help reduce risks and make it harder for threats to reach the US.

a must-visit spot

Ceylon Tobacco Company

I expect the matter will be resolved by payment or by their withdrawal

Hans is reaching out

█████████████████████████████████████████████

He's considering the $600m matter involving me

Every year

He's trying to understand it

He first sought to understand me

I wish my voice were Darth Vader's

I don't like my higher-pitched voice

It's frustrating

This

I really dislike it

Because I wish I sounded like Darth Vader

When

One day, when I speak to people with a voice like Vader's

They will understand me

███████████████████████████████████████████████████

█████████████████████████████████

I chuckle

I'm not worried

I'm just joking, by the way

Fact Check:

Lehan's point is accurate.

█████

I mean

She must've had those ██████████████ arrested

Just make sure they are handled appropriately through ███████████████

They have no right to attempt to cause harm to 600 people here

Who are they?

And ensure █████ is held accountable for the situation

But give him a clear reason to take firm measures

Tell him we can offer █████████████ to help with Iran's oil deal

We'll arrange for █████████████████████ to process ██████ product

We need a ███████████████████ toward those █████████████ allegedly supported by █████████

If they are allowed to act with impunity

They could attempt to carry out further ███████████████████ against us

They need to be stopped and ██████████████████

That's one way to handle those people

They

Are they trying to make me afraid of them?

I'm also frightened of the centipede

I believe there's nothing wrong with what I do

There's a lot of attention on an Israeli soldier on holiday

Should we refuse his visa?

That seems excessive

Authorities should handle concerns about the three people linked to ISIS

If I were Harry Potter, I would have focused on preventing Voldemort's return rather than using violent methods; that would remove a horcrux from the problem.

If I were Frodo, I'd have flown by eagle to Mordor, let the ring be destroyed in the volcano, and returned in time for whatever Samwise Gamgee mentioned about strawberries.

You need to solve problems

Hans is okay; in the 1990s, I would have given SLT to him.

He would have done a great deal for SL.

I'll give Zuck a break and visit my own website before making any exaggerated comments.
