These are three things that are more displeasing to God than any others: the first is for a rich man to be greedy, the second is for a poor man to be arrogant, the third is for an old man to be lascivious.

Honestly I am surprised that anyone from another country would come here for either the World Cup or the Olympics. I'm certain that even if athletes can get in many of their fans won't. MIllions of soccer fans from Latin America and Africa is Trump's nightmare.

We welcome European support but at this time our Waddles will sink any non-scientific vessel within our Territorial Defense Zone, in accordance with our Antarctic Treaty of 1959. We reserve the right to change this policy if American Dear Leader renegotiates his unfair Tariff practices.
News just in: Swedish fashion retailer H&M is considering moving to Heard Island and McDonald Islands to take advantage of lower tariffs and the .hm domain. Insiders say this may outweigh higher shipping costs and manufacturing near an active volcano. @heardislandgov.bsky.social is yet to comment.

Residents of Heard Island took to the ice in protest of the new tariffs.

Some one should point out to Elon that Bezos had the courage to get on his Blue Origin rocket. Musk doesn't have the balls to get on his own Dragon.

@algreen.house.gov is my representative. I am proud of his actions at the speech on Tuesday. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov How dare you punish him for standing up. How dare you allow other Dems to vote for his censure. He had the courage to do what you should have done.

God, the Dems are pathetic. Al Greene, my representative showed courage. The rest are scared of getting kicked out. They should all be booing and shouting and getting thrown out.

This says so much about American culture.
Research shows that voices heard by people from the U.S. with schizophrenia are harsh, violent and belong to strangers, and voices heard by people from India and Africa are kind, benign and belong to their relatives and friends.
