Level 6 · 8 mo agoThe Toyota Hilux breakdown is crazy. Never realized a pickup truck was their signature weapon 🤯.

Level 5 · 8 mo agoThe justification that opium is fine because it only harms kafirs is peak hypocrisy. They banned women from working but happily collected 20 percent tax on heroin. It was never about purity.
