How can we fight to save the world if we become so economically weak that we get absorbed by the US and lose that ability. It's called Live to Fight Another Day. Those morons don't get it.

You understand where Carney is from, right? You know both his wife and daughter have degrees in enviornmental economics? I guarantee, Carney is as Green as we want him to be. And if tge US has done it's job and voted Kamala, we wouldn't be here. But now Carney needs to ensure Canada is around.

I've been operating as a black hole when it comes to food and haven't been full in over a month...

Having said that, I'm STARVING. I had 2 cups of fruit salad, 2 cups of greek yogurt, 3 eggnog lattes... I should not be as hungry as I am.

don't judge a man 'til you've walked a mile in his shoes all the way to the courthouse where you put on a black robe and get your gavel and tell the bailiff to bring in the next defendant and hear their testimony and make a decision by fairly interpreting and applying the law and

If a bluesky verified ‘reporter’ is posting AI videos, what is the verification exactly? Their name?

Posting fake content invalidates any claim of being a journalist.

Me: Is there something I could do differently to improve my sleep?

Doctor: I recommend not looking at your phone for at least an hour before bed.

Me: So nothing then.

I like it when there are a bunch of people on here talking about a sporting event that I'm not watching.

It's like seeing a flock of pigeons eating a smashed sidewalk donut together. I'm not partaking, but you guys dig in.

Gf talks nonsense in her sleep when I go to bed. Last night, she told me I needed to pay a £5 admin fee to get into bed and then later, when I said she was snoring, she said it had gone up to £5.50 because she had to roll over.

I was told it was 'none of your business' what admin needed done

Mamdani: “I went to Rosh Hashanah services the other night and it was this beautiful service and afterwards an old Jewish lady came up to me and handed me a button with a bagel on it that said ‘reject the smear campaign, join the schmear campaign. Jews for Zohran”
