People on Bluesky to ask for money, I also would like money. Musicians are quite known for not having money. Composition of music is a particularly unrewarding task, financially speaking. Asking me for money is a fairly pointless exercise. Slava Ukraini!

Australian here. I’m so sorry about Rupert!
For anyone who thinks that the oligarchs don’t want to crash the economy, encourage them to read Stark, by Ben Elton. It’s fiction, and I don’t think our oligarchs are as well coordinated or forward thinking as that lot, but there’s a really interesting part early on when the economy crashes
The media, for the most part, has its head stuck so far up the Orange Menace’s backside that he doesn’t need to check for kidney disease, they can just have a look.
SCOTUS (unintentionally) gave Biden a giant get out of jail free card. All that extra immunity! And he did nothing with it. One could very easily say that the world is in this position because of Biden. He didn’t drop a ball, he dropped enough balls to fill an arena.
Much of this funding was obtained before he even announced the ballroom though. Plenty of those companies did not intend to fund a ballroom.

(Leave it to Trump to be both thrifty and dishonest!)
But don’t forget that a lot of these donations are the funds from lawsuits that Trump has won, or leftover money from previous fundraising. As I understand it, a significant number of the donors didn’t necessarily intend to fund a ballroom.

So for now at least, I won’t boycott until I know for sure

The president of the US does not comprehend that the Australian ABC and the US ABC are not the same organisation.
I’d look to Reagan for that. He was the one who gave US citizens permission/encouragement to hate the poorest and to blame the poorest for their problems. (And he also bestowed trickle down economics, thus ensuring a strong supply of poorest people for decades to come)
Quite a few of them had already donated the money or been sued before we learnt that Trump could spell the word “ballroom”.
I think that this is one of the many side effects of the US obsession with not paying taxes. You see those side effects with every US tourist on YouTube talking about the quality of public transport or parks or healthcare or government facilities etc in other countries
Sorry to read this. Best wishes for you and George
He looks like a particularly unbuff Lex Luthor.
But think of that phrase that the tech bro/disruptors love so much, “move fast and break things”. The Orange Menace is doing exactly that, on a larger scale.
Dichondra is great. Lawn that doesn’t need mowing! How is this not a more popular idea?
Emblematic of the logic that one must avoid in order to keep supporting the patriarchy.
You are telling me, hand on your heart, that Trump asked for Russian help and paid/intimidated adult stars for the silence, *and* there was Cambridge Analytica, for him to win in 2016, *and* Jan 6 2016, none of which resulted in him paying any penalty, and you think he hasn’t cheated since?
How can you be certain that the US hasn’t already joined the group of countries where what the people vote for doesn’t correlate with what they get?
But remember, a good deal of these donors didn’t realise what they were donating to. Classic example: some of the TV channels that Trump sued, their money is now going to this and they are getting the “credit”. How do we find out who actually knew what they were donating to?
I think we need to rewrite the lyrics for the Sinatra tune, The Lady is a Tramp, to something like, The Donald is a Tramp.
At first glance, I thought it was a bird, but then I realised that I have seen some Studio Ghibli films lately…
This post confused me at first. But then I realised: you’re not Shaun Micallef!
I thought “globalist” was an antisemitic term.
Surely this isn’t news. The Orange Menace was telegraphing in his first term that he thought he deserved more than one additional term.
You know, in my field, we regularly get told, "If she is out of your league, speaks multiple languages, and wants to hear every detail of our work day, she is very confused”.
