Blaaaaaah, I will be so happy when this NW weather fucks off, so I can finally get a good night's sleep.

Definitely going to need to nap today, because coffee hasn't saved me today. But that's tricyclic anti-depressant night sweats as a side effect for you.

Even though I'm save scumming a bit (and rarely a lot), I'm actually having a lot of fun and a lot less frustration :3

Since this is forcing me to play a bit smarter. So far doing pretty well on the strategic level too, with only 1 nation falling.

Blah, should record a new episode of my XCOM: Enemy Within + Long War Mod let's play, but I have hit zero energy now >_<

Doesn't help I forgot to put the mic on for the 3 sections I did record, and so deleted. Mind you, lots of save scumming because didn't sleep well last night.

But of...

It's only threatening because it makes it more likely for everyone to realise Johnson is in the closet on his homosexuality.

Anyhow, one hopes a naked protest turns up in Washington targetting him for maximum effect :3

Fuck you climate change, it's not meant to be 19Β°C at 11:15pm here in Christchurch in fucking October.

I need to "borrow" someone's oversized SUV and fuck off to the mountains if I want any sleep tonight.

This is the way.

Newsome's a total cunt of course, but he's right about this bs and how it absolutely needs to pushed back against hard.

Finally fucking did it and started on getting my ADHD diagnosed at a 1/2 price amount thanks to A Change for Better Fund. Going to take a while and I have to pay NZ$1750 for it, but I can do that. Mostly.

Definitely going to get multiple food grants for the 750 3rd part of it though.

...cross, if only because they tarnish his image way too fucking much. Also helps the Saudi's own some of his debt on top, never mind the business plans.

But hopefully with the EU involved etc this can work.

...action which is utterly horrifying to see a state built on the ashes of the Shoah and centuries of Pogroms against Jews fucking carry out. And then deny to the world while it's own government's MP's cheer it on and crow about demolishing Gaza. Z

...be staffed that well. But in saying this, it's a hell of a lot better than Israel's plan to continue the genocide and ethnic cleansing of the Gaza Strip.

It's not going to save the Israeli government though, they've managed to burn away decades of good will by carrying out a genocide. An...

What's in Donald Trump's 20-point plan to end the war in Gaza? Here are all 20 points of the US-sponsored proposal aimed at ending the nearly two-year-old war in Gaza.

???

There's some good stuff in here, but, a) needs a hell of a lot more details, including funding commitments and reparations/support stuff and b) just who exactly is going to be involved?

And with Trump being the "chair" it doesn't sound like this is going to...

Also: when a government acts brutally and lawlessly and immorally, but tells you that pointing those things out incites violence and terrorism, that government and its agents are entitled to no respect or credence.

Jesus, that composure, I'd be obviously coldly furious if was in this situation.

Anyhow, his lawyers are going to have a fucking field day with the DoJ over this, so much so it's going to backfire on Trump.

I would normally be horrified about someone releasing a video to talk about being indicted but this is pretty disciplined.

Utterly fucking disgusting, but that's the Trump admin in a nutshell for you. Depraved, corrupt, immoral, bigoted, unjust and all in all, disgusting as all hell.

Trump’s Censorship Binge After Kirk’s Killing Is Part of an All-Out Effort to Crush the Opposition He is rapidly consolidating his power so that no one can even challenge his authoritarian takeover

The federal government is waging a censorship campaign, an all-out war on the First Amendment, on a scale without precedent in living memory.

Great, this is totally fucking bullshit and given how stupid RFK Jnr is, it's going to be used as a stepping stone to restrict vaccination even further.

Leading to entirely preventable childhood deaths. Making both these fuckwits frankly murderers.

Yet another reason why Trump doesn't deserve a Nobel Peace Prize. Because this fascist shit-gibbon keeps threatening violence on other countries if they don't bow before him.

Also Vaush is right here, the Trump admin is trying to reframe left wing protests as "political violence".
