    1. Sounds like it thrills you that this happened ?looking at you’re profile you’re definitely extreme ultra maga.

  1. Two substations in Woodinville, WA were just attacked two weeks ago on the 16th and 17th as well. The person or persons attempted to create as much damage as possible but didn’t steal anything from the substations or my job site directly behind one of them, but they did attempt to hot wire my forklifts, presumably to cause even more damage
