They have abdicated responsibility for the long term good of the planet and the human race.
Yeah, they have a strangle hold on a bunch of resources economically speaking. But, the time has come.
Trump has exposed the country's back to the mat.
Time to go for the pin.
They are outnumbered.

But even those in the latter group tend to cling to the hope that they can come back from the brink.
The rest of us - those on the outside who watched this coming for 2-6 decades (or more depending on your grasp of history) - need to quit waiting for them to get their assessment off their skulls.

Venice will always be special to me.
My daughter said her own name for the first time along the grand canal.
That never goes away.

Hi.
Canada here.
No. We aren't.
We will pay exactly what Mexico paid for the wall.
And expect that even less will get built.

He and #neildruckman deserve every opportunity to prove to us that they can land this wild journey in style.
Dont give in to the tired.
Be willing to believe there is another way.
If they succeed... hot damn, it was worth being uncomfortable.
If not... well fuck... they tried, and that's a thing.

Maybe not every episode has been stellar, but enough have been out of the park fantastic that you'd be a fool to not give it a chance to shine.
#craigmazin might fail. But he has taken some off-track structure to great heights already (and not just in this series).

Not only are us other democratic nations standing strong, but there is a demonstrable reflexive push against the bullshittery we see occurring in your recently minted shit-hole country.
It seems, that despite your belief about your exceptionalism, we have been doing democracy better for some time.

The most amazing thing is that this is a country that put a man on the moon, and yet.... this.

Two Israeli Embassy staff members were ASSASSINATED....
"Assassinated" is the word.

I'd be fairly confident that that is a rapist & murderer and a rapist & convicted felon sharing a giggle.

Ah... so you aren't arguing with me.
Sure.
If that salves your ego.
...although that too is kind of gross.
FFS man, reading comprehension is deeper than the surface.
Surface interpretation is the safe space of a realm of disingenuous debate.
"I never actually said that!"
"Oh don't fool yourself."

Are you triggered by the fact that it is implicit in your argument?

So you are okay with Rose being a pedo-rapist.

Permanent.
That is pretty specific, isn't it?

Seems like a perfectly sound choice.
The law is supposed to be "fair and balanced" right?
I mean, she's got to have that on her resume.

I'm sure their "fair and balanced" approach translates directly to the belt way.

Never was much of a King fan...
But there were a few that I enjoyed.
This marks the point where everything I read that I liked has been made.

If it's peanuts then maybe he should pay for it himself.
