First, some comic relief with the courtesy of @19Daro45 (with minor touch ups from yours truly 😉)

Ps. @PGZ_pl, this one is for you — @19Daro45's work is @ClioAwards worthy 🏆
In June, 🇺🇦 gov't signed a $65mln contract with 🇵🇱 for 72 🦀 Krab howitzers, of which the first 18 have been "donated" 🎁. In August @CNN reported that the Polish Krabs play a significant role in 🇺🇦 defense, showing 🇺🇦 soldiers praising the accuracy & modernity of the 🦀s.

1. #Italy is going through a devastating economic crisis,millions live in poverty,our #PublicHealthSystem is collapsing,and yet our government will increase our #MilitarySpending dramatically.
