Show me a room of conservatives and I’ll show you a crowd of cowards unable to acknowledge their privilege and terrified that merit will one day matter. Beautiful things will outlive human folly. Dogs like me.

Oh so the American people have exhausted all options and will now do the right thing? I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s not even a record mid term turnout.

This is also exactly where the Australian Labor Party is going wrong as well.

Struggling Russian army now losing troops faster than it can replace them For the first time since its invasion of Ukraine, Russia has lost troops faster than it can replace them. It's one of many grim milestones of a bloody war that has now been going for four years.

Europe (France/Germany) has the opportunity to do the funniest thing…

But you can’t knock their inventiveness in new categories of worst. The mad monk was worse than Howard and McMahon in terms of his quixotic ineffectiveness and Scotty from Marketing was supreme in his total disinterest in the actual job. Dear old Turnbull didn’t have a clue how to operate the party.

Well it appears nothing unites a country like something seriously divisive so maybe a mix of Nickelback, Creed and Coldplay?

This was specifically predicted is precise detail. There will be many who did all they could to avoid this catastrophe but those who have a livelihood to lose have no excuse for being misinformed or shortsighted.

I suppose most of the 2a guys who normally just sit around cleaning their gun while fantasising about a person of colour raping a member of their family are presently working as ICE agents.

I’d check the conditions they work under and the pay they receive as some measure of how these essential lifesaving people are regarded by the major political systems.

I really really wish, for your own benefit and everyone else’s, that you people would see how your present circumstances are connected to your beliefs; such as that New York is superior to every other city in the world.
