Not that I have been super active here, but I don't trust where this app is headed. Going to lay low for awhile, see what transpires. Find me on Facebook, phone, e-mail.

my family was just forced to vote at gunpoint in russian cosplay of a “referendum” in southern ukraine:
- they come to your house
- you have to openly tick the box for being annexed by russia (or for staying with ukraine if you feel suicidal)

I wonder if it would help to explain some nuances of the Martha's Vineyard situation that may be lost on the general public.
