I get it - but isn’t ‘choice’ a quintessential differentiation that America has - to distinguish it from the rest of the world?

Get everybody to use their phones like an old fashioned lighter and get those batteries drained to zero!
🎵 Apparently
HAKEN are set to release their seventh studio album ‘Fauna’ on the 3rd March 2023.

I guess Valentine’s Day is not what it used to be?
