Ready Fire Aim is a lousy way to govern.

The American Woodcock is the best kind of cock! 🥹 youtu.be/YF3-LvmHM4E

Exciting news! I just worked out a way the #NDIS can save millions of dollars each financial year! If I’m reading their “Transparency Portal” correctly, during this same 12 month period, of the 110 cases that made it to the tribunal, half of NDIS decisions reviewed were varied or set aside. 1/4

First they came for trans people, and I did not speak out-
because I avoid 'identity politics'. Then they came for the Palestinians - but I don't do 'purity politics'. Then they came for everyone but me - but I was waiting for the midterms. Then they came for me- and I was quite shocked tbh.

I’ve been having a good natured running argument with my daughter about whether it’s hygienic to buy used drink bottles. After seeing this in the drink bottle section at Savers today, I conceded defeat. 😬😆

When you drive 30 mins to take your kids to the pool just to keep them out of trouble and then someone (not us) blows chunks, so everyone gets out and stands around waiting for them to fish the chunks out with a net until you realise that you really don’t want to get back in and drive home. Sigh.. 🙄

I’m so averse to being perceived, I once cut the tip of my finger off while slicing zucchini, because someone had the audacity to wander over and observe that I had good knife skills. 🙄 So rude.

Nailed it!

Ah damn it turns out this whole political system relies on false assumptions about how big of an asshole someone could be

🦋 THERE IS A WORD FOR THAT 🦋

AOC is calling it out! #TrumpHasBloodOnHisHands

“Life will find a way…”

i think an important thing for people outside the US to understand is that elon musk seized control of the government today and most americans don’t even realize it happened.

Dopamine feedback loops from incessant messaging can be mistaken for chemistry or compatibility… in dopamine starved minds blissfully unaware of their perpetual deficit. Can cause much confusion and pain later.

Has anyone tried asking the horrors to desist.

I don’t scream “what’s going on”…no. Oh no. I scream MOTHERFUCKER. Like my nephew screams in his head, but I scream it out loud.

😆

Noooooooo!!

When Canadians are being Better Americans than we are

Ronald Reagan: “Our peaceful trading partners are not our enemies; they are our allies. We should beware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends—weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.”

Many years ago, I did a class where the teacher taught that in our lifetimes, the world was due to see the rise of a new “charismatic leader”—the first since Hitler. I’ve wondered over the years who it might be. Obama certainly gave me pause for a bit. But now I know. There he is, folks. 😔

#NoDickheads.

truth

I wonder if I’ll get to live long enough to see this described as, “a turbulent time in history”. 🤔
