Storyteller. A little Bohemian, a little retro, a little too much. The only religion I believe in is compassion.
Very interesting thread. The end makes it so worth the read.
It goes without saying that this is stupid, and I wonder what set it off. Was there a segment on Fox News? But I thought it might be worth a thread explaining what Trump (and, to be fair, some other international leaders) don't get about international money 1/

Christmas decor was up for sale in early Nov this year, around the time OTT platforms started pushing Xmas movies. I feel this is less about spreading the cheer & more about distraction & consumerism. It is disquieting though, for good cheer to be forced on you when all you want may be a pause.
