Pro-science. Pro-critical thought. Pro-democracy. No use for idiots and liars of any political stripe. The centre has to hold or the wheel comes apart. I’ve no use for anyone’s ideological purity tests.

People who are only concerned with performativity don’t think that much.

He’s super-obliterating them now. They will be so super-obliterated that it’ll make obliterating them the first time look like something the Dems might have done.

Ugh, not me. It’s not like he’s browsing bazaars or relaxing on the beach. He has to be β€œon” 24/7 while he’s there. I doubt he remembers much about any of the countries he visits as PM.

Exactly. He’s not a micromanager. I’m confused by people who seem to think he needs to be hip deep in every file himself.

Once again, their kids will have to die or develop life-long health issues due to completely preventable causes before the penny drops for these parents.

Technically true… they plan to adopt the US dollar. Because that’s what truly sovereign, independent nations do.

Well, she’s multiplied the administrative costs of the healthcare system 11-fold without similarly increasing the number of healthcare providers. She’s got that to show for it… :/

Some of you say, β€œJoy is greater than sorrow,” and others say, β€œNay, sorrow is the greater.”

But I say unto you, they are inseparable.

Together they come, and when one sits alone with you at your board, remember that the other is asleep upon your bed.
