Well no longer! We, the community, are here to right this wrong and defeat this injustice by writing posts and recording videos to assist the confounded and rescue the bewildered.
It doesn't need to be long, or complex, but each week we will publish, and our dominion will grow. Join us, and together we shall become unstoppable!
