Former dissident movement leader. Overthrower of tyrants, rebuilder of governments, debaser of the nobility, and bestest English king ever. I never met a tax I didn't like.
These sorts of articles are designed to make you comfortable with making rich people richer, either by renting perpetually and building no equity, or by taking a 50 yr mortgage and building marginal equity. This "K-Shaped" economy didn't happen by accident.

I decided to live in a build-to-rent community after buying a home. I'll never buy again.
John Santa Orta sold his home and moved into a build-to-rent townhouse. He feels like he owns a house, but without much of the responsibilities.

I never thought I would have a *favorite* astronaut -I mean, who doesn't like astronauts- but here we are.

The repudiation of MAGA is great, but the comeuppance granted to loser-talking doomsayers on the left -however near or far from the center they are- is absolutely magical.

Lolololol I haven't enjoyed myself this much since I had two adolescent pretenders murdered after having my Privy Council fake their escape from the Tower. It was very popular!!!!

Cuomo's campaign was a 4D Nude Underwater Backgammon level masterclass in electioneering.

Old Soviet Joke:

One day Stalin called the NKVD and told Beria that he lost his pipe. Later that night, Stalin called Beria and said don't worry I found my pipe. And Beria said, but Comrade Stalin, we arrested 100 people and 99 confessed! And Stalin said only 99? Continue the investigation!!!

It's funny to see the people who spent 2020 assmad about slaver statues be absolutely fine with the desecration of the White House.

My advice? Condemn that abomination. This can never be undone. The next administration needs to start over with a new residence.

Lots to unpack here, but he did unironically call fascists "the hard men of Gondor."

By the by, England -and its best king ever (me)- have dealt with overmighty oligarchs before. I found than an aggressive tax policy along with some time in the Tower adjusts aristocrats' attitudes rather well.

I am very glad of the outcome. I know what it's like to have Langley misrepresent you. Also no one gives me enough credit for hiding him so well. I mean, not as well as he hid the princes but whatever.

All I can say is that we Tudors were had hands the size of catcher's mitts. Even Elizabeth. Especially Mary. Absolute bear paws on Mary. And don't forget that I, the biggest and best Tudor of them all, defeated a Mad King and put his bloody crown on my head. It was very popular!
I guess it's called the Magna Carta. I heard that and I said wow. But we're not going to have it anymore and we'll have something much better. And I think our royal subjects will be very happy

At this rate Fetterman will get Sinema-ed. He can't run as an independent, nor could he survive a GOP or Dem primary. He's just spinning wheels acting like an asshole because no one kissed his ass enough and he got embarrassed in an article that made him look bad because it reported facts.

Remember, just when you think a bloody mad king will usher in a darkness that hangs over your country for a century, there will always be a Bosworth.

And remember kiddies, a key part of Bosworthing your opponent is charging all the leaders with treason and merging their titles with the crown.

The thing is I have never walked into a Boots, asked for Tylenol, and had them know what I was talking about. Then I say paracetamol and they know. So hopefully Trump's blather won't even translate to Britspeak.

They will sell you codeine tho and I urge you to use that with the appropriate caution.
