Or you can just have ̶G̶e̶o̶r̶g̶e̶ ̶L̶a̶z̶e̶n̶b̶y̶ ̶ ̶ the new James Bond say “this never happened to the other fellow” as ̶D̶i̶a̶n̶a̶ ̶R̶i̶g̶g̶ ̶ new Bond Girl drives off leaving him holding her shoes…and then just carry on smartly…
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”
Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:
“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

The Senate Dems didn’t change—we did. The only way we ‘lose momentum’ is if we lose resolve.

FWIW, in Switzerland my spouse and I pay, combined, CHF -13,200 (~$16,000) / yr in insurance premiums for mandatory coverage. 1st ~$625 each is out of pocket, then 10% copay for all services & meds until ~$875 copay each is reached. Employers do not contribute. We do get 4+ weeks vacay tho.
I moved to the U.K. in 2017. I pay £10 for a prescription. I pay national insurance which is around £2000 per year (£166 per month).
The British also have to take 4 weeks holiday per year.

The number of people using “state schooler” or “no better than OSU” as insults for Vance need to have a reckoning with their elitism ricky-MF-tick.

Hegsie is celebrating Halloween a bit early, no?
![A screencap from Twitter. Graham Allen wrote: THIS IS INSANE!!!! The Department of War [sic] just dropped this INSANE VIDEO of Secretary Hegseth in a FIGHTER JET!!! AMERICA’S SECRETARY OF WAR [sic] 🔥🔥🔥
There is a photo of a man sitting in the back seat of an F/A-18 Hornet. He is wearing Ray Ban (not military issue) aviator style sunglasses and a helmet with a clear visor despite flying during daylight and under a blue sky. On the helmet beneath the clear visor is a TOPGUN patch, a school that the Secretary of Defense has not attended and thus an insingnia he is not entitled to wear. His cosplay is complete by the baby blue t-shirt under his flight suit.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xwibkv4pvzj537b2nwid2axh/bafkreihgd62o7gz3j4xe4fc6d7wetvtykfdgdsehcm2k7rhjvxwkvukcb4@jpeg)

Observe, however, that Hegseth is getting rid of gender differences but not age differences. 40 year olds will still have a lower physical standard than 18-year-olds
So don't tell me this is about combat readiness, because it's not. It's about reducing women in combat arms
