The free world needs to unite and play Trump’s game. Sanctions, embargoes, actual threats.

He just switched to the wrong side, they all need to stop placating him.

It feels like Russia just conquered the USA without fire a single gunshot and installed a puppet regime in its new colony…

The rhetoric of a violent partner… What a shameful bully.

I was browsing pictures of my 2024 (the ancient era) vacation to NC. This sign felt hyperbolic, but so ominous of the current situation.

These two (audio-)books basically cover the last 65 years of Democrat campaigning, policies and exercise of power. The first one makes you nostalgic of when politicians (from both sides) could show nobility; the second one makes you reflect on the future. I loved both very much.

With Ticketmaster dynamic pricing, I end up paying huge amounts to see my favorite music performers (because demand is so high). But how come the tickets to see my favorite sports team never go down when they are dead last in the standings ? 🤔

I pay extra for an ad-free streaming service. For about the same price, we go to the movie theater for 1 film and get 20 minutes of loud and dumb ads… 🤔🙄
