12yo asked how much tax we pay.
“Woah, you’re losing a lot of money.”
“Er, no. I’m not losing it.
You know how we pay a subscription to Disney+?
Well my taxes are my subscription to society.”
“It’s still a lot of money.”
“Yeah, but I get a lot back: hospitals, roads, Medicare, a justice system.”

Today I learned “Norwegian Christian laws forbade citizens from conversing with and interacting with trolls, and in documents dating from 1274 to 1781, doing so would result in severe punishment” (source: Wikipedia), and I kinda think many people nowadays would be better off if this law was revived

The strength of politicians is now measured on the Carney scale. Go full carney.
Every democracy needs at minimum 1 actual Carney right now. If you can’t get a 100% grade Carney, you’ll need to find four 25% grade Carneys just to try and remain viable but you still won’t have a complete Carney! Treat your democracy with great care, lest you elect an orange grifter, baby-man.
