Birds, dogs, fun facts, procrastination, art and a nasty habit of inserting myself into political discussions when people are being baselessly cruel.

"Be excellent to each other"
He's declared his daughter dead hasn't he?

Disgusting human. If he's so hung up on biological sex then maybe he should get his chromosomes checked. 2% of the population are intersex (not XX or XY) and most don't even know it.

Would explain how 13 of his kids are sons - they were IVF engineered.

Who will tell us to be respectful? Those sidelining him are there out of fear because he has a habit of offing those that get in his way.

But the person that tells you to be respectful, that's the person you need to pay attention to. That's the person who has been puppeteering him. The real danger

many genuinely have absolutely no idea what any political definition means.

They get communism and socialism mixed every time.

They don't understand that a dictatorship communist state can look nearly identical to an authoritarian capitalist state. And yet they vote for it.

An anecdote is not helping the argument. Some dogs are fine with fireworks. Mine was, he loved them! Then one day he experienced an incident that caused permanent trauma to this day. PTSD on the extreme.

This is the majority. My neighborhood sees a dog die each week this time of year as a result

It's down to our short memories and poor education of history.

Cycles in history are well reported, usually around the 100 year mark - just about long enough for those who remember to die off.

Examples: global pandemics, authoritarianism to democratic collapse, environmental disasters

Imagine explaining the political climate to someone in 1950. All the things they accomplished and so much lost in the process to set up peace treaties, trade agreements, alliances.

They thought they had protected future peace from past mistakes.

I'm glad most aren't here to see it.

If you manage to save them within 5 seconds of them becoming an incel then sure why not? I can forgive 5 seconds of that behavior

Not to mention they are "dividing equally" between states. Meaning CA with population 40m gets exactly the same as Wyoming with 500k population.

Think about the political leanings of states with larger populations.

All strategic.

$25bn.

They set aside 50bn but are forcing states to apply for it.

And 50% of that is reserved up front for "bonuses" at their discretion for those that they deem fit.

So it's 25bn with lots of strings attached on how they provide healthcare, spread over 5 years.

I'd love him to start sharing their content. Maybe get a "reporter" in to interview him.

Unfortunately he can't read (not a joke) so it would be up to one of his advisers to prank him with that one.

It kills me.

I wish there was more focus on the immediate issues like this and less on political warfare.

Have your political opinions as much as you want but please AFTER we have dealt with the most urgent matter: those currently in unthinkable hell, and their poor families

Can someone please tell me where any of the children are that have been detained during Trump's 2nd term???

I'm serious. Apart from the one 6yo who gained international pressure, I can't find a lick of evidence that a single one of these kids has been released, dead or alive.

Sorry but I had to graphic this because I swear to this date I've no answers on this and no one else seems to be alarmed enough

Been asking the same questions so many times, I simplified it to the public facts in hopes of answers and still none to this day.

Someone help me fill the gaps here:

Wait... That's not already the law in the US??

What you guys even doing? Why are daily mass shootings an acceptable thing for you?

I can't understand why guns are so accessible to those who aren't even trained.

Al Jazeera ENGLISH is considered a fair news outlet covering under reported stories and not afraid to criticize US/UK/Israeli foreign policy.

It is Qatar funded, so obviously have bias there.

A mix of "least" biased news like BBC, Reuters, ProPublica, AJE, whatever is the best way

Is not nearly as drilled into kids in (some I guess) US schools. Perhaps explaining why there is so much lack of education around medicine and vaccines there, because you don't forget those photographs if you studied them in school.
December 21, 2025 at 6:02 AM
Depicting those crucial and harrowing photographs of the kids in the iron lungs, of babies with whooping cough, great detail of the plague etc. and I was surprised to hear the other was not familiar with these haunting photographs that we all know so well.

It seems this aspect of history

I had this convo earlier with an American (I'm UK). We had an entire year in history on medical advancements, Marie curie, nightingale, Fleming etc. and history of diseases and how vaccinations came to be, penicillin invented etc.

It came up because I distinctly remember our history books
December 21, 2025 at 6:02 AM
Btw, I just realized I followed you specifically because of your fields. It wasn't even a random follow I like that sort of stuff.

Hope you don't mind me flitting back in lol

Also, no one ever seems interested in my animal posts so I stopped bothering 😅
