I’ll believe it when I see it.

And when the government isn’t afraid of the people, what then?

then it’ll be easy to get pregnant

Whether you want to or not…

I hope they’re not as ridiculous as the Canadian Reform party was.

Pariah state is the designation I have started to use.

Is it just pandering to religious freaks,

That and increasing their authorization grip on society.

In my day we made do with porn we found in a box in the woods.

Can he be pope on a rope?

A common theme of MAGA is inventing problems that they can solve

That they can pretend to solve.

Bible authoritarianism.

The US is no longer trustworthy.

And it will take a lot of time and effort from the Americans to regain the trust of the international community.

• Fires don’t respect property lines.

• Rescue workers still have to deal with the mayhem (and risks you have created) if you do something stupid on your own property.

If your idiot son wants to build a structurally questionable tree house and the parents don’t do anything about it and he dies that’s on them.

Some of us have human empathy.

See: Regulations around building structures on private property.

Even those are based on people doing it wrong in the past and endangering themselves and others.

The more judgement based exceptions you put in the regulations, the less compliance you have, and the more “rules lawyers” on your crew wasting time and energy trying to talk their way around some edge case loophole.

And the more often people will take the lazy option, rather then the safe one.

All that said, I hope that Carney instead chooses to build consensus.

As I understand it, that has been how he has operated in his previous roles.

They’ve also “deported” (exiled is a better word) actual citizens. Someone on a green card has less protection than that.

While Trump is still a factor, the BQ has common interests with the Liberals.
