A lowkey local political person in my area said, “it’s not a blue wave, it’s not a blue tsunami, is a blue-kaki.”

This Australian's reply to Trump's rant about “NATO not being there for America” is perfect.
"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban in Afghanistan thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth."

I don’t have any appetite to attend social events knowing that Covid is going to be there as well. I don’t care how fun it sounds. It’s like knowing that there is shit in the swimming pool, I don’t care how hot it is or how refreshing the water looks, I ain’t swimming in shit.

Due to my own struggles, I've read a lot of the research on what COVID does to the brain...its not pretty. I'm really concerned that as a society we went through a mass brain damage event.
And most people are just walking around with short circuits that they aren't being treated for and aren't acknowledging.

If you've never been at a brunch in Davos discussing how much of the world's population will have to be sacrificed in coming years, you are part of the population that those brunchers are planning to sacrifice.

Being kinda chic is subjective, but COVID-19 doesn't care.
- it's kinda chic to keep up with your vaccines
- it's kinda chic to wear a mask in crowded indoor public places
- it's kinda chic to cover your cough or sneeze

Man, I gotta say, as an american. I love how trump illegally taxed us and now the biggest corporations in the country get a free check.
Awesome stuff from the don't tread on me, taxation is theft crowd. Appreciate it. You guys are killing it.
Also cool that Trump tried to ruin an Olympian's life because his buddy he gave a no bid contract too fucked up a pool.
Again, incredible stuff from the small, limited government, 2A bro gonna take on a tyrannical government, freedom loving, constitutional #1776 patriots.
You guys are on a roll. Really bringing back the patriotism and love of country. I can feel the red, white and blue flowing through my veins.
Watching a country we are at war with hack our water systems and then watch the president blame americans for it. Just a real chefs kiss. Makes me want to listen to the national anthem over and over.

Billionaires own the platforms, politicians, newspapers and data centers and then tell you the greatest threat to your freedom is a broke immigrant picking vegetables.
Weak minded idiots always fall for blaming others. Fascism needs stupid people for it to be implemented.

Teaching my class today when a student walks in and casually drops it: she missed work because she woke up completely deaf in one ear. The nonstop ringing was so loud it sent her into a panic. Doctor said her ear was packed with fluid, probably an infection. She shrugged and blamed it on her seasonal allergies acting up lately. 🫠
Every single time these sudden ear horror stories flood in, along with people flinching at normal music volume, another Covid wave has already begun or is picking up speed.
My own family member woke up with that mystery runny nose and the same nagging ear. Primary care handed out antibiotics on Friday like clockwork.
This round is hitting hard with severe headaches and dizziness that knock people sideways, sore throats from hell, GI nightmares bringing diarrhea, nausea or vomiting, and gut pain above the belly button that doubles you over, sore, red, swollen/puffy eyes, some even have mouth sores or a burning/swollen tongue. Some get just a few symptoms. Secondary infections like cellulitis, strep, sepsis, ear infections and pneumonia are tagging along.
The excuses or ABC I have taken note of this wave features: “summer cold,” “strep,” “I have the diarrhea parasite,” “heat exhaustion,” and “food poisoning,”and “seasonal allergies.”

This might sound cynical but I sometimes wonder if the wealthy have, behind doors, realized that the climate is destroyed, and, as a result, started deliberately creating the conditions that will cull the population through war, famine, pestilence, while hoarding resources for themselves and their offsprings.

If you think I’m trashing MAGA (whatever that is now) I really am sorry. I know for certain there are millions of Americans who voted for Donald Trump that love this country and love their neighbors and love their families and struggle and succeed and fail just like me and you and everyone. And I don’t begrudge them their political affiliation in any way. I just abhor the hate. The meanness for the sake of being mean. No matter where it’s coming from. I’m not your enemy man. I’m really not. They’re trying to get us to fight among ourselves while they pick our pockets and piss on our legs and tell us it’s raining. I’m not doing that to you and I sure as hell know you’re not doing that to me. What could we possibly gain by hating each other as they walk off with all the food on the table. We can disagree with each other without hating each other. We just all need to break the algorithm man. It’s so much more fun finding a reason to love someone than it is finding a reason to hate them.
