I agree with her principle of disagreeing with the banning of books, but her writing is so overrated. There's no wit in what she's written here. No style. It's just obvious what she's doing. I wish we had a better defender of the freedom to read

Is this what's keeping Mr Trump up late at night, worrying sick about it? Of course this is a rhetorical question to which the answer is, are you kidding me?

The usually generous and empathic and fair-minded Mr Trump was somehow making the mistake of sending kids out of the fucking country without any caretakers or parents. He doesn't give a sweet flying fuck about anything. He's a sociopath who can't imagine or care about others' suffering

One of my favorite Indian dishes. As you no doubt know, England has many fantastic Indian restaurants. I've been to a few in London, but I've also been to an excellent really great one in the small town of Lichfield and Staffordshire, for Samuel Johnson was born

Also the untold story is that not only is it a single person clapping in the sense of one one, but it's a single person in the sense of not being married or having a girlfriend. The rumor is that the person hasn't had a date in 7 years. He's said that he wants to make America date again

The US is not an evidence-based country. And how the states have too much power. And the president has too much power. Some things should be centralized. It's embarrassing the gerrymandering that Texas has done. In Canada, an independent agency decides based on population change from the census

It appears the Republicans are going to do nothing to remove Trump. The Democrats are feckless. The American people are protesting but without much effect either. How is he going to be stopped? He could die of natural causes. There could be an assassination. The military could stop supporting him

The Republicans are the people who could bring this President down pretty quickly. But they are choosing not to. They don't do it the sweet flying fuck about their constituents. They love love love love their cushy jobs. They have no character. They have no courage.

Thoughts and prayers obviously don't work, and effective gun control is a non-starter in the US. We can do what Chris Rock suggested in one of his routines. Make guns available at a reasonable price, but hike the price of bullets. You can get a rifle for $200, but each bullet will cost you $100,000

I see that the legacy media are quick to say that the killing ing of the two kids in the Catholic School is a hate crime. We don't care whether it's a fucking hate crime. We don't care what the fucker was thinking when he killed kids. we care that There are too many fucking guns in the country.
Wayne Jones π¨π¦ (@waynewilliamjones.bsky.social)
America currently has over 120 guns per 100 people. That means of course that some people have no guns, and some people have 10. In either case, it's not an attractive statistic. Are there people who really are puzzled why school children are being killed while they're in fucking church?

I don't think this is true. Decent people did. But a lot of decent people are either stupid or willfully uninformed. Easily duped. It has nothing to do with decency. It has to do with whether you pay attention to what's going on in your country. Most Americans don't. That's why the idiot rules

Benjamin Netanyahu is such a transparent genocidal leader. At first he would accept half the prisoners in exchange for peace, and when Hamas agreed to that, he says now he will only accept all the prisoners in exchange for peace. I conclude from that that he does not want peace. Warmonger
