Someone explain to me how Trump trashing the stock market, then telling people to buy, then pumping the market back up again isn’t illegal. Explain it me like I’m 5.

Shocked by the sheer scale of the #fires in #LosAngeles. I can’t even begin to imagine what locals are going through at this time, but my thoughts are most certainly with you all.

I thought that the Tube map was getting too complicated so I tried designing my own. Turns out it was more complicated than I thought!
