I've been saying for *years* that even if we (cis autists/ADHDers like me) didn't oppose these evil fucks on general principle as we obviously should, we should do it out of self-preservation, because they were yelling "you're next, freaks!" through megaphones.

Impossible to bury the lede here. It’s all lede. All the way down. To the centre of the earth.

KT is furious with A because his new schoolshirt is covered in dirt/paint/'stuff' and his pockets are full of conkers. He's 15 and appears to have stepped straight out of the Beano. I wouldn't be surprised if he had a Y shaped catapult in his back pocket
