Big meany you are, obvs. :D

problem is that everyone has to suffer until the base who FA has thoroughly FO. And since quite alot of them are wealthy real estate sales person types with boats, it seems there is more FO that has to happen. Sadly. For us all and the planet.

He and his speech writers only managed 3 minutes at this moment of global crisis... You don't think you are being a bit mean to ask for 10?

Maybe you should all stop committing crimes, Todd.

Great speech, dude.

“There are catastrophic risks coming right now… but the insurance industry won’t help people in 20 years’ time with their flooded houses.” - Richard Denniss, co-Chief Executive Officer

Will look out for your photo then too :)

The takeaway from the president‘s speech is that they should release the unredacted Epstein files.

Lovely pic :-) Is Artemis there somewhere? (getting on and eyes going and just wanted to check I haven't missed something )

The Chief Justice would be wise to cajole his justices to go 9-0 on birthright.
It would slam shut a door that never should have been opened.

Hey, don't blame the kid. Happens to me all the time: pasta, peas, tiny cheese triangles, little chewing gum balls... turns out it's aliens! (and if you knew me you would think I was joking :))

I also think the "hemisphere" plan outlined in 2025 US Nat Sec and Nat Defense documents is consistent with the techbro's "technate" which is also consistent with putin's plans for world domination.None of which is consistent with anyone else's, incl Iran's, sovereignty. Could well be I am a nutter.

I agree russia is China's bitch. I don't agree we need to or should wait for China's to help to negotiate. Iran has agency. We have agency too: apart from the fact that it would require our leaders to admit they were wrong in endorsing/not condemning a crime of aggression by US/Israel.

Except of course that would require us to have leaders and advisors with ethics and smarts, and unfortunately what's happened in the world recently suggests that what we have been left with after decades of greasy-pole-climbing managerialism, is not that

Yes..but also if the world, despite not great Iranian leaders (who are now apparently deceased) finally found its moral compass and said what is being done to Iran is contra int law and we now (ie despite earlier hypocrisy) stand up for int law...reckon things could be fixed with or without China

I'm the kind of gal who would say great! seeya there! I also would've made an effort to have a nice date at said cafe. And, unless he was rude to cafe staff, I would've agreed to another date. While explaining to my friends how really, I swear, this guy is the one, not a cunt. For the 8th time.

the tragedy for us all is somehow we ended up in a position where we have to pay attention to the words coming out of the mouths of the worst people on the planet. How TF did that happen yet again? And if we can't figure that out after, once again, this, we really are all doomed.

My advice for a winning strategy: do what the people voted you in to do, which is basically everything you havent done to date re environment and unemployed and old people and also includes things like standing up for the law.

Reporting from the hellsite: paying to flood the zone with rustedon bots now labor thing it seems. Before Albo's speech, I had @lesstenny and a couple of others which was fine. In the past day or so tho it has been nonstop (fake)rustedons. NB: Making Elon a bunch of cash is not a winning strategy.

Data centers are creating ‘heat islands’ and warming the land around them by up to 16 degrees | CNN The vast data centers that power artificial intelligence are so energy hungry that they’re heating up their surroundings, according to new research. It’s an alarming finding given the number of data c...

With only the slightest apology for my language:

Who the fuck actually wants these damned data centres?

As good a take as any might be: AUKUS partners learnt he was planning to do/announce something horrific but he TACO'd cos UK/AUS were going to tell the world about it if he did not stop. Great not another atrocity today to deal with. Missed opportunity Albo and Sir Keir said nothing of value at all.

The hellsite is currently filled with "people" saying how wonderful a 3min speech by our PM which said sweet FA was and how we are all traitors if we don't agree. Note to Labor: waste of $ guys. Also, funny the polling on that speech was apparently so bad they felt obliged to do that.

And by "us" I mean society.

A couple of months ago I asked my local law society to remove me as a lawyer because I am appalled at being part of a club of immoral individuals that it turns out control the profession and ensure no one who screws us will ever be prosecuted. I never got an answer so apparently am still a lawyer.

We are ruled by morons and it makes me want to light my law degree on fire

As someone who studies politicization of democratic militaries this statement on X is a five- alarm fire. It creates an undeniable permission structure for overt partisan behavior by mil. It's part of a concerted effort by civilian leaders to turn the U.S. military into a partisan aligned force.

Sorry but in what world has Trump been "intently focused on making sure Iran never had the nuclear fuel in hand to build a nuclear weapon," let alone for the last decade?

He withdrew from the JCPOA to spite Obama, and because it was what every Republican wanted him to do.

Sorry no insulin for Grandma, we are busy giving Ayatollah Ali Khamenei‘s more extremist son control of the Strait of Hormuz

Just so you understand, this is as if you prepared for argument in front of a panel that included Cookie Monster, and Cookie Monster asked you a question about cookies, and you had not thought about cookies in advance.

Well - I think that just made people more angry and anxious #fizza #auspol
