Look I know this is insensitive, and perhaps poor timing, but all I’m saying is … “called it”

There’s a rapid shift in Europe from seeing America as an unreliable partner to a straight up adversary in the same category as China and Russia.

The truth is...buried under a veritable ocean of nonsense.

“Ha! My face to your foot style! How do you like it?” - America

King.

Social Media and the Bystander Effect: A Short Thesis “Surely with so many politically energised and active people around, someone else will start the revolution right?”

This the government equivalent of “accidentally” ingesting bleach. Oh…right…

Spot on. It’s staggering to see lawmakers and apparent leftists alike allow their own memories to be fixed in post - reacting to whatever’s painted on the inside of their eyelids. ‘Wokeism’ didn’t loose the election. Buying into the notion that it was even a problem certainly contributed though.

One of the under-appreciated casualties of this nightmare, as with virtually every type of conflict, is mental health. On top of the millions subjected to dehumanising violence and abuse, we have entire generations questioning their agency, life’s meaning and reality itself.

Migration and immigration, whether legal or not, are and always have been a blessing. As with so many things, right wing politics takes the beautiful, valuable and important, puts it in a vice, squeezes it, cuts at it, smashes it to pieces and then complains that it’s broken.

Strong odds Russia tests US willingness to respond to article 5 sometime in the next 3 and a bit years. And equally strong odds the US shrugs and blames the victim.

“I just feel those lands would be much more Majestic if the ‘Indians’ could be moved to other areas” - Andrew Jackson probably

I just got off the phone with Lord Vader and he assures me that the war can end immediately. Also that I’m very smart and kind and good at stuff.

Petition to rename the United States of America the Transcontinental Belt of Occupied Indigenous Territories

This reads like the opening paragraph of a novel so bleakly dystopian you'd put it down after five pages

If the goal is to get us to loose faith in the basic premise of reality then it’s working.

H.R.1161 - To authorize the President to enter into negotiations to acquire Greenland and to rename Greenland as "Red, White, and Blueland". Truly, the silliest timeline.

So we’re going to parenthesise all place names with their local versions now right? Right?

Age changes music from a parade of dreams to a procession of memories.

Let’s just say “it’s all groundwork for invasion from an alien 5th column” doesn’t sound as totally insane as it might have a year ago.

- Every comfortably employed straight white American right now. I think you know

Look all I’m saying is you can skip the first part. Just put your left foot in and shake it all about. Do the hokey pokey and turn around. That’s what it’s really all about.

Netanyahu hoping to ‘redraw map’ of Middle East in Washington DC ceasefire talks with Trump – Israel-Gaza war live

Welcome to all those just now waking up from the American dream. Tea is on the table. Toilet is down the hall. Take as long as you need.

The world needs tech companies if for no other reason than to keep tech bros occupied with super important societal issues like burger delivery and solving problems created by other tech bros. Keep them in their own ecosystem.

Jon Stewart - “What are we, like, the Jake Paul of nations?”

Well America was certainly one of the countries to ever exist.

There’s lots of folks out there who were right all along and as the world plows forward will go unrecognised. There’s also a lot of folks building careers out of being terminally wrong who will never be held accountable. A note of appreciation to the former. A middle finger to the latter.

Guys, I can't post right now. It's just too much. Honestly don't know how anyone has the stamina.
