Yea, I’m not hopeful there either. Lol

Poor Harry. He just thought it was all a jolly day of dress-up. But William knew. And though he told Harry, over and over, Harry still thought they were just going to go play and come back home for a cream tea.

I think using every major storm as “proof” of climate change isn’t an argument meant for us. It’s meant for the thick skulls who voted for Trump and are getting battered by these storms in ways they’re not used to. Uneducated Republican voters are moved by two things: dog whistles and false promises that a smaller

instead of doorknobs, it’s filled with droid parts?

Did Harry not get a back pack? Was he forced to use a sack his whole school career? Is this because he’s not the heir to the throne?

While this is frankly unnerving. This is not the end of things. Eventually reason will (hopefully) win out from all of this madness. A pendulum doesn’t swing only one way. Remember, the EPA has only been around since 1973 and founded under a Republican administration. Much like what happened with Trump pulling out of

Ah, so you had the classic intern experience offered by my fine country of residence^^
I don’t know why companies offer those internships, except that they think it makes them look good. Korean interns do get things to do, but it’s mostly “bring the boss coffee and if you’re female, look hot while you do it.”
Heck, I

I think it’s mostly upsetting because it’s happening rapidly and in succession. We also have a different outlook on how we want the world to be run and are less likely to just believe our government. There is a generational shift happening and most of us don’t want what’s being sold.

I’m in the same boat. I think people (Amal, readers of celebrity rags) are just “surprised” about this because he was such a celebrated bachelor for so long.

No sleep till Bojack

I wouldn’t want to have kids with someone who surprises me by being a good father. I’d want to assume ahead of time that they’d be a good father. Having a kid and then going “oh wow you’re actually good at this?” Is weird to me. Although I don’t have millions of dollars to support childcare care if the dad slacked off.

Oh, wow, I’ll bet!
The chaebol culture is just insane. I understand why people want to work for them ($$$!) but with very few exceptions, I cannot believe the insanity people go through while there is worth it. It’s one reason I never ended up leaving the education/culture sector, even when tempted by much more

It’s so obvious, isn’t it?

Nothing gets done in a democratic society. Everyone thinks they know the best way.

“The US isn’t slipping. It’s staying where it’s always been. The only difference now is that it’s patently obvious because Trump isn’t candy coating it. The end of DACA isn’t outrageous in American history— it’s vastly more normal than not.”

My hope is Congressional Republicans get pissed at Trump for lobbing this one over the fence and they stop ignoring how unfit for office he is. If they don’t pass something, Trump will throw them under the bus faster than you can say MAGA.

In case my stars don’t stick-they kept disappearing this whole weekend-know that I really appreciate the detailed historical perspective. I’d blocked out most of this but need to get my head out of the sand.

Yeah and the fundie Christian religious right wing was rising up in the 80's and started getting far right GOP people elected which forced the Dems to go to the center. Check out Chris Stroop’s #EmptyThePews and #YouDontKnowEvangelicals hashtags for an insight into how insidious this has become. I fucking hate this

Its the same old shit but it comes packaged differently each time. Like a fashion cycle - we’ve seen it all before but each time with a twist of some kind.

Gotcha. Yeah the Executive branch is supposed to be enforcing laws, not creating them. I think what would help the country is if there was less of an almost romantic view of the President and more scrutiny and coverage of Congress and its machinations. The fact that they had a break RIGHT BEFORE government funding
