P.S. The White Ranger, while having that cool black vest, is nowhere near as boss.

My wife asked why it bothered me so much and half way into saying they are ideologically, diametrically opposed I realised Trump would need beliefs more complex than โme, me, meโ for that to be true

Hate it.

Austerity delivered Brexit. Brexit is delivering the far right.
The thing they have in common is they have made people poorer.
But are they reading things on screens rather than in print?
Or is genuinely just not interacting with words?
My wife dropped off Pets at my kidโs school yesterday and the Head said โthis is great. We have loads of kids who donโt like readingโ.
So if you felt a sudden disturbance in the force yesterday morning, it was that.

Talked myself out of giving one to my daughterโs school because it seems pushy, would they event want it, who do speak to etc. The usual imposter syndrome excuses.
Suddenly my daughter takes a copy and says โBut itโs a good book.โ
My wife has just had to explain why a fire fighter and cop are in space on 911 because I nodded off last night and I honestly feel like Iโm having a fever dream.
