Apparently the US only wants rich tourists. Wonder if the 5M Trump Gold card gets that fee waved. Somehow I doubt it.
Please take care of yourself and don’t come here. Spending your money anywhere else and leaving an empty seat at the WC is the best thing for all parties.
From a quick search looks like the owner is Graham Farrar, a former tech bro from Sonos. Where did you find that info?
But also…Creampie Conoisseur!!
Must be auditioning for the new head of DHS
King Harald of Norway, when asked by Trump about getting invited to talk about a Nobel Peace prize, decided to host Obama instead.
I hope Carney can hold out. I don’t have much faith.
He had every opportunity to bank off of independence from the US. Would have carried home through the next year and a half.
Exactly right. The steps sit on the risers. If you can’t see both it’s from the top.
Ooo nice, thought refineries were a no no per the US. Very good news if confirmed.
Why does this feel like a query to teach LLMs
That definitely resonates with what I’ve seen.
I’m sorry this lesson had to come at such a great cost but I’m grateful there is a lesson.
Please don’t let your politicians bend to our Golden Toilet.
As much as I agree with your analysis, living in a rural town in a red state, it’s mostly poor, white people here. It’s a healthcare desert now. They will die just as fast as minorities in urban areas.
Someone’s asking the right questions
Exactly. Probably by design.
Wait, just hear me out, if we wait for the concentration camps to fill up with immigrants and political prisoners, they can provide the same labor FOR FREE while also providing a nice sum for the private prison firms that, in turn, grease the prison-to-profit machine!
All this with the added bonus that some of the labor will already be skilled. It’s brilliant!!
You are absolutely right. MAGA are not conservatives but even your run-of-the-mill Republican from 20 years ago was hardly a conservative. Save for a very few folks like David Brooks, George Will, or the late Alan Greenspan (not sure any would consider themselves Republicans), efficiency has only been a guise.
I chose to use that term just because it encompasses the largest tent of people who would be just fine to continue all this just to a lesser tone and without Trump. They have been chomping at the bit to reinterpret the constitution by way of appointing “letter of the law” judges since well before Liz’s father’s time. Speaking of whom, there’s no way Dick could be considered a defender of the constitution.
I do believe we, on the left, have something to offer. Community, quality of life, working together and lifting each other up. All basically euphemisms for socialism which, unfortunately, has been vigorously stigmatized. Just like being kind and caring about other people is stigmatized as “woke”. Fear of this demagoguery and trying to appeal to center Republicans is what’s made us this unappealing mess. We really just need to embrace the word socialism and say fuck the people who will lable us communists.
Your example of MAGA brand fascism is spot on! May have to quote that. Don’t think I could write it any better.
Chances are you’re right. Losing his entire personality is more terrifying than losing you (or me in my case). Thank you for sharing this. It helps me getting it off my chest.
I’m right at this point with my dad. He still listens to Alex Jones religiously. Haven’t verbalized it to him yet but I have made a decision that I no longer want any conservatives to be anything but required acquaintances in my life.
I think you did the right thing. At least his corrosive behavior will not affect you anymore. In my mind I’m hoping that my dad losing his child will jar him loose from the cult but in really nothing will feed his hunger for anger and victimhood like more cult.
If we all did this five years ago, maybe there would have been a sea change by now.
I think it didn’t make it out of committee (pls down vote if I’m wrong) so never reached the floor for a full vote.
