You call it “wasting time playing computer games”.

I call it “engaging in problem solving exercises to ensure that I stay mentally active in my older years”

We are not the same

Petro objected to the US bombing a Columbian fishing vessel that had the emergency beacon on because they were broken down, that we subsequently bombed. One Columbian fisherman survived the attack.

This is the official US response to Petro's comments.

People come up to Trump with tears in their eyes and tell him his diarrhea is the best diarrhea, the tastiest diarrhea. The kind of diarrhea that cures cancer and puts Christ back in Christmas.

He's not saying it, but people with tears in their eyes are saying it.

Marvin stared at the painting of his great grandfather, who had survived two wars, worked three jobs to support his fourteen children, and eventually died saving a box full of kittens from a fire, and thought to himself, "You know, if I knocked that over, I could sleep on it."

A cat stares at a large framed oval painting of a similar-looking cat in military dress.

Pete Hegseth wore a Russian flag tie to his meeting with Ukrainian President Zelensky. But what did he have in mind?

Peter Thiel I said about employees “I want to be unencumbered by the tax of human labor.“ Leon didn’t pay taxes for several years in 2021. He paid a rate of 3.27%. They are both immigrants from fascist South/southern Africa.
Elon does not pay into Social Security either. They do nothing for people.
