"Give Peace a Chance," one of the great anthems against war and in favor of peace, recorded in 1969 by John Lennon and Yoko Ono during their Bed-In for Peace at the Queen Elizabeth Hotel in Montreal, surrounded by friends and journalists.

Yes, HID headlights are very bright but the bigger problem is the proliferation of gargantuan vehicles with 5’+ hood heights so that if you’re driving a normal sized car their headlights are at your eye level rather than seat level like they’re supposed to be.

There's a lot of things you can criticize western journalism for, but I'm not sure "remembering this guy had a journalist murdered and started a war" is one of them

I’m thinking that US voters being “furious about prices” when Trump’s fascist regime are attacking democracy, human rights, the environment & climate, public health, the global economy, the sovereignty of nations, a sane world order, and more, may be why the world will never trust U.S. voters again.
Americans are upset about prices & things are completely unraveling for Trump.
Americans were upset about prices under Biden & his poll numbers were like Trump's are now.
Americans were upset about prices when @kamalaharris.com ran & she nearly won. Says a lot about her strength as a candidate.
