I watched Brexit but I did not know much involved in another Democratic country. Now I look for some sense here as 47 rolls out more anger and idiocy every day.

bluebird350.bsky.social•6 days ago

It’s so hummiliiating to be honest. Russia getting back at both of us for defeating them together in WWII it would seem.

carminaiguana.bsky.social•6 days ago

America deserves to be laughed at, but it has compensating values (e.g., creativity). Whereas UK & Brexit are *nothing but* a laughingstock.

There's a reason Hollywood and Silicon Valley are in California and not near, what, Sheffield.

jessicajsalmon.bsky.social•6 days ago

You might be surprised how many ‘Hollywood’ films are actually filmed over here. We have a fantastic creative industry.
Not so much on the silicon v tech-bros though, thankfully.
I think our employment laws, maternity & paternity leave rights etc etc put them off.

Elect a madman clown and get a Circus Asylum.

chuck-e-jesus.bsky.social•7 days ago

Yes. We know.

jessicajsalmon.bsky.social•7 days ago

I genuinely love the States, spent amazing times there and have family there. Humour is my coping mechanism but I’m honestly sad and scared about current events and hope things can turn around.

epremo.bsky.social•7 days ago

Thank you for the laugh!

forensicguy.bsky.social•6 days ago

You are right but our Republican Supreme Court, comprised of a number of Hegseths, disagrees.

Muting everyone who annoys me today level up!

Correct! Get me TF OUT!!

‼️six days to 1st April - 2x congressional races in floridas 1st and 6th districts - go support Gay Valimont and Joshua Weil - you don’t need to live there to support - spread the word ‼️

rikabel69.bsky.social•7 days ago

It DOES make Brexit seem less awful - I’ll take it!

jessicajsalmon.bsky.social•7 days ago

Only marginally

Also don't look now. Gas prices are spiking all over while Russia was buying Tesla stock. And yes it's only Monday.

34t-th3-r1ch.bsky.social•7 days ago

I don't understand why they are doing any of this shit. No one asked or voted for this crap.

kresten2.bsky.social•6 days ago

The US voted for a fascist government.

Them doing fascist things shouldn’t come as a surprise.

We are living in the stupidest time.
All chaos with no reason nor rhyme.
What’s clear is we have to be brave.
We’ve got a fucking country to save!

corianna6.bsky.social•6 days ago

The only reason one would use the Signal App instead of a SCIF, is to avoid oversight.
That's why they fired all the IGs...

kaylovely.bsky.social•3 days ago

None of it is funny. This is a shit show. Trump is a joke. The rest of his administration are a bunch of clowns and if they shut down FEMA, the very people that voted for this are the ones that will suffer, so be it. What a disaster.

notlost-drsmith.bsky.social•6 days ago

I'm a policy/program analyst who invented a solution to FEMA devolution during Trump I. If anyone can connect me to Blue state leaders, I'll to share my plan to form a sub-federal network of resilience-focused investing, expanded infrastructure funding, and boosting State Uni research $.

katana13.bsky.social•6 days ago

Keep in mind, half of us don't want him either.

jessicajsalmon.bsky.social•6 days ago

Yeah 48% of us didn’t want Brexit - we still got screwed. Shit innit. 😕

katana13.bsky.social•6 days ago

It really is.

theunknowncritic.bsky.social•7 days ago

and you bit into the zone flood hook line and sinker

American citizens being nabbed off the streets and the fondling of your Social Security go on without you noticing now

jessicajsalmon.bsky.social•7 days ago

I’m not American - I literally just reposted about them trying to evade due process. I probably pay more attention than most US citizens and have got off my butt and protested outside the US Embassy which, again, is more than most Americans have done

kdh52.bsky.social•7 days ago

Don't listen to the asshole above. There are still half of us give or take who still appreciate and love our international friends.

theunknowncritic.bsky.social•7 days ago

i dig the EU

UK ... not so much

when y'all gonna give Ireland and Scotland their freedom?

theunknowncritic.bsky.social•7 days ago

Due process?

Protesting?

Double non-sequitur!

jessicajsalmon.bsky.social•7 days ago

You aren’t as clever as you think you are sweetie.

theunknowncritic.bsky.social•7 days ago

I'm disappointed. Where's the trademark cutting sarcasm for which Brits are infamous?

Now toddle on, Governess.

It's weird seeing the glass of our snowglobe crack and all of the water running out.

libertyjustice.bsky.social•7 days ago

Welp, we thought it was time to join in with all the other countries of the world, you know? The Royal pains, Johnson, and all that, talk to me more about dysfunction.

bibliophile1964.bsky.social•6 days ago

You’d think Noem would want to keep FEMA open for awhile so it can clean up this shit storm today!

jaynenebula.bsky.social•7 days ago

Wow!
And it’s only Monday
🤣🤣🤣🤣

zeroidone.bsky.social•6 days ago

Ok, the Red Army victory march can be followed at "Brandenburger Tor" / Berlin on Sunday.

zeroidone.bsky.social•6 days ago

God told me.

jessicajsalmon.bsky.social•7 days ago

🤣🤣🤣 invading Greenland Thursday - Pete told me on Facebook chat

jaynenebula.bsky.social•6 days ago

😂😂 I s’pose that will be followed up by Canada becoming the 51st state on Saturday. I saw a rumor on Reddit chat🤭

Yeah, the days of me sneering at the Brits for Brexit are long gone.😞

cococurie2.bsky.social•7 days ago

Turning us into the biggest shit hole country of all time--and I say this as someone who loves this country. I'm still believe we can overcome, but damn! This has been a hellish day.

savagecatscratch.bsky.social•6 days ago

You just don't understand all the subtle nuances of MAGA...and neither do I. 😁

jmspikeguy.bsky.social•6 days ago

All this gives supporters of Reform UK a little insight into the Farage led populist agenda and what could happen here if we were to blunder down the same path.

jessicajsalmon.bsky.social•6 days ago

It does but I’m not complacent - we could slide down that route. Fight the good fight to make sure it doesn’t happen.

magicmau5.bsky.social•6 days ago

As an Chicana I was sad while studying in the UK in 2009 because I realized the USA's reputation globally is abysmal. Fast forward to 2025 and it's now 1000x worse... The problem imho is our education system is trash, so many people never get the chance to learn why Trump's "policies" are crazy af.

jessicajsalmon.bsky.social•6 days ago

We have a similar problem here now with education and the erosion of critical thinking. Too much ‘learn by rote to pass an exam’. It’s not the teachers’ fault it’s the syllabus and system.

magicmau5.bsky.social•6 days ago

Actually the concept of critical thinking itself wasn't taught to me until university. Which is too expensive for most people unless you are either poor and a top student (me), or borderline genius and get into MIT (scholarships are very competitive), or quite wealthy. The whole system is rigged 😑

More than two thirds of us didn’t vote for him. Unfortunately, one third didn’t vote at all. That’s why we’re here.

As a young man I always wondered what it must have been like to live through the fall of the British Empire or early 1930’s Germany.

I wish it was still a thought experiment.

jessicajsalmon.bsky.social•7 days ago

Reading ‘Appeasing Hitler’ at the moment and the parallels are striking.

At least it's not Kristi Noem going to Greenland to watch the dog sled races.

jessicajsalmon.bsky.social•6 days ago

Oh god can you imagine? Poor doggos.

jo-cat.bsky.social•7 days ago

We are aware. And not happy about it.

askcobundle.bsky.social•6 days ago

FEMA closure isn’t some side plot—it’s the agency that helps states recover when disaster strikes. Tornado? Wildfire? Flood? They’re the first line of defense. No FEMA = more suffering. Just @askcobundle.bsky.social and we’ll help answer any questions.
