    Lol, I just got to the part where the man that she thinks is Zelensky says that they need money for bombs to kill Russians, which she laughs at sinisterly. Then he says the money she's sent for children's charities will be quietly rerouted to arms sales, but publicly they'll pretend otherwise, and she's just like "that's cool."

    If the audio isn't edited, that's wild.

        Of course I would say it’s edited. Because it is edited. I would know. I’m a writer, and I’ve had lots of my work edited.

          hmmmm, you know, a quick skim through most of the harry potter books would seem to indicate otherwise tbh

            Thank you! Actually, none of those books were edited at all; it’s unbelievable they hold up so well! Even in today’s cancel-happy culture, which is undoubtedly the number one issue facing humanity in the coming years.
