I’ll be sure to wipe my ass with this regulation like I do all the other ones I ignore.

Fuck ICE fuck the FAA and fuck trying to limit documentation of the descent into Fascism Deluxe

Never let “perfect” stand in the way of “good”

It’s a start, not a magical transporter to the finish line.

Me, at 7:01 Monday morning:

I’ll be sure to tell my grandfather, my great grandfather, and my great great great grandfather that if I ever see them.

“sorry, some rando on the internet said you didn’t fight fascism during the Civil War, world War 1, or world War 2”

Honestly I’m not even sure why you felt the need to negatively comment on something a year old. Kind of sad.

You don’t love a pointlessly gendered meme debate while the world is burning due to class warfare?

Because the doctor is stuck in the mindset that women are baby factories and they should be that above whatever else they want to do in life.

“Boomer isn’t just an age group, it’s a state of mind.” -some rando on the internet

That’s… What finitebanjo said?

Oh god I wish

I mean… Uhhhh… Lol funny

8, but I settle into a 9 when I’m in a good mood

I respect drag.

I cannot respect showering corporations with money to buy lights to cover your already unnecessarily large mcmansion in gaudy baubles, and waste enormous amounts of electricity for over a month just so everyone can see how much more “festive” you are than your neighbor.

The money wasted on the setup in just one of these pictures alone could feed dozens of homeless for a month. And I think feeding the hungry fits in way better with the supposed theme of Christmas.

Tldr: Long winded way of saying “is he wrong to assume that?”

American here, I can assure you that the majority of the people around me have absolutely no idea about anything involving the UK government.

In the last month I have overheard two separate conversations in different states, asking if the UK has a “president”, and at least one got the answer “no, they have a queen”.

I’m not even sure most Americans are aware the queen died. I’m not sure how they could possibly have missed it, but our country is collectively under a rock, so…

I have heard many people over the years trying to argue US law for things happening in the UK.

I have had to inform a great many people that the UK includes Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. Most people have been surprised to find out Ireland isn’t united as a single country.

Americans in general are not smart. Even less informed about anything that happens outside the US than I assume most people in the EU know about the US state Ohio.

I would like to have a pineapple plant just because I think they look neat and it’s cool that they grow such large fruits.

I don’t like pineapple though. Horrible, bitter taste.

Pffff I couldn’t be trans because I look anything but feminine, and all that daydreaming and looking at clothes and wanting to buy breast forms and go girlmoding is just normal CISHETMALE stuff, right?

… Right?

blatant Russophobia

Lol. Lmao, even.

4,000 hungry children leave us per hour from starvation, while BILLIONS are spent on BOMBS

CREATING DEATH SHOWERS

No, it absolutely isn’t.

It violated our own laws, international laws, and as far as I’m concerned it’s both an act of war, and possibly a literal war crime (please, anyone with more knowledge than me weigh in on that last one) and every other country should treat ours accordingly. We broadcast to the world that it’s do what our leader wants or we will take whatever we feel like.

Heck we did that decades ago, but now we aren’t even lying about it.

I think it really is hard for the average person to grasp just how much the US has invested into warfare. Heck, I’d argue the absolute powerhouse of the military isn’t even weapons, it’s logistics.

It’s simply not even plausible that the US military industrial complex comes grinding to the proverbial halt over Venezuela.

If any other country tried to invade the US, they must first cross oceans to do anything effective, and with modern equipment, I doubt any stealth tech could slip in unnoticed, and everything else would be intercepted by the navy or, assuming the navy has largely become ineffective from being over-extended, national guard, coast guard, and just plain old home defense structures.

Keep in mind, several buildings around DC house anti-air sites and other defensive structures. They’d be last-resort type things though, home defense would be priority (or would be in any other administration) so you can bet in case of an attack, non military traffic would be grounded and jets would be scrambled, since no matter how bare-bones some squad in Caracas is, the personnel and equipment at home are fully stocked.

Unless the rest of the world completely cuts off the US, and honestly unless we actually strike at a major EU country I don’t see that happening, the US will keep chugging along, conscripting kidnapping people for the Orphan Grinding Machine. The 0.01% will never feel it, and will keep the poors fighting until the rest of the world turns their backs and nobody is left standing to fight.

I’m not singing the praise of the US military. This isn’t “American exceptionalism” here. This is shameful overspending on death machines while citizens starve. This is disgusting abhorrence for humanity that will result in loss of life on an unimaginable scale unless things change.

How many people would still be alive today if we had just decided to mind our own business after 1945? How many regions would be far more prosperous?

If you made it to the end of my rambling, I’m sorry for wasting your time. I might be a little baked right now. Thanks for reading though

As a us citizen it’s very clear what the US government wants it to mean.

Do what we want or we will hurt you and your neighbors. Anything said or done before Demented Don took office is irrelevant, just do what he wants. Or thinks he wants. Or what his handlers want. Or else.

Having perused international laws myself, but not being a lawyer, I’d say “YES THE US FUCKING VIOLATED INTERNATIONAL LAWS”

Me, playing any game where I can play as a woman, but most recently cyberpunk2077:
