minus-squarecerothem@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up42arrow-down3·7 months agoI wonder if 2.5 million in gold with be enough for prosecution.
minus-squareTalesOfTrees@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up19arrow-down3·7 months agoGold? Looks like machine parts to me. If they’re just laying around like that, they’re obviously scrap and we all know recyclables go out on Wednesdays so let me just haul those out to the curb for you.
