Welcome, **🙂 ☹ 🙂 Flux** , or **just flux** , or **fucx** , or whatever.

This place is addictive. But, all will be fine so long as you don’t interfere with my plans at overthrowing a small 3rd world nation in the near future. Don’t be one of them “meddling kids”.

Tripler  
Seems they’re always around the corner with a large mumbling dog, too.
