His own citizens are scared of upsetting him. The rest of the world shouldn't be. He has no right to fuck our lives up on a whim. Trudeau showed the way in pushing back. Ukraine, Europe and the UK haven't caved either. Maybe it's just time to stop being so polite to the prick.

I drive ~5.5k km each year, 90% of which is to carry lots, or intercity trips. Otherwise, cycling, walking and transit. I don't want to be 90 before I am.

The Hibiscus is generally woody - like a shrub. The Rose Mallow (which is our native Hibiscus) dies down to the ground every year. But its flowers are either pink, as shown, or white with a red throat.

Absolutely very difficult to design repairs to a system of government. Dissatisfaction is the first step, though. Do you think your countrymen can give up the beliefs connected to the founding principles?

I'm only about ΒΌ the way through and it is about what I'd expect from him. His ideas still strike me as too compatibilist.

Do you think that these political events (since 2015) are enough for people in the states to ponder what changes are needed in their system of government? That was my only hope prior and during Trump.
