Next Trump will tell the story of how he used to meet up with Stephen Hawking and, after discussing the inner workings of black holes, he would tell Trump that he is a great astrophysicist, probably the best there has ever been.
Should the tax system be rejigged to redistribute wealth more fairly?

Holy crap this from a GOP Chairwoman -
I am โnot a scientist, because that is a made-up job โ but I know that the earth is flat.โ
Because if the earth was round, why would maps be flat?โ

Morning,
How to lose an election
Embrace neoconservatism & neoliberalism
Wages caps, austerity, dismiss climate change
Plus, flirt with RWNJ's & religious zealots, racists, cookers & fascists
No social justice
What else?
Really need a another coffee โ๏ธ

Holy smokes Trump clear as daylight on Truth Social -

Compelling reason to lock him up. Clearly a threat to prosecutors witnesses judges and judiciary. Past form suggests he be taken seriously. A dangerous maniac, get him in a cell.
No shit Sherlock

In the 1930"s Hitler made Goebbels director of a new propaganda ministry ... When Nazi's took power Goebbels went to work envisioning an empire that would control schools, universities, film, radio, and propaganda...
Why am I telling you this?
Mike Johnson told a gathering of Christian nationalists last night that weeks before he became House Speaker, "the Lord told me very clearly" to prepare to become a "Moses" who will lead the nation through a "Red Sea moment."

He cheats about everything. College, Vietnam, on his wife, playing golf, his charity donors, tax and business records, what else? ... How is this guy a front runner?
The preeminent pop sensation globally is poised to issue an endorsement, and boy oh boy.... it's going to irritate and hurt them tremendously. Who am I talking about?
We cannot undervalue the study of history. It broadens perspective, promotes critical thinking and the understanding of humanity throughout the time spectrum...

Some things happening in the world right now are making us agitated, bitter, angry and unsettled.
It's getting to us, admit it. We go on with our lives knowing those things; very wrong things are occurring right now... ๐

After reading climate denier posts and replies, I'm astonished at the number of morons & blockheads that occupy our space.
They post with utmost confidence in their false beliefs and have a world of supporters & advocates at the ready to agree.
I feel for climate scientists
Exactly 9 months ago I was struggling with 400 followers
Today, we just crossed 20,000 ๐๐ฅณ๐
What gives?
Authenticity, accuracy, confidence, engagement, attentive content curation and experimentation.
Not forgetting YOU, the 000's of you!!!
Thank you

Cannot unscramble an egg. The libs are too entrenched with Murdoch and his ilk & beholden to his media empire and the BS it sprouts. A brand in decline - irredeemable in its current state. Howard's letters only made the result worse..
So out of touch with reality...
This is Coles Mt. Gravatt in Brissy.
It is now completely self service only.
I was told that Coles have done research.
Apparently, we all asked for this ๐คทโโ๏ธ
It is the 1st store in Qld and in the future all stores will be same.
The staff found my disgust amusing.
What say you?
2024 is almost upon us and for the MAGA movement it will be a case of -
"It's now or never"
That spells and signals for civil disorder, political and cultural disruption

How do you feel?
Referring to Jack Smith putting him in jail, Trump said it would be a "very dangerous thing to even talk about" because of his "tremendously passionate" supporters.
He is stoking domestic terrorism!! Besides, if he does go to jail, it's a jury that decides not Jack Smith.

Heavens Nat this is no ordinary post. Here's hoping hoping you source the best of care fast and surround yourself with loving & positive people. Thoughts up for you ๐
The difference between a Twitter account with 10K followers & one with 500 followers
10K account tweets something as superfluous, pointless & trivial as
My favourite colour is purple & gets 300+ replies
The 500 followers account tweets same & crickets
Holy moses, Mike Pence wiil surely be a witness in the case against Trump for his attempts to stop Bidenโs 2020 election victory being certified. And he'll be testifying against Trump! Who needs Netflix that week?
Noticed several accounts I follow are temporarily restricted and a growing number of accounts reporting a drop in follower numbers??? Twitter playing up on us?
Book banning is gaining steam. A society that bans books is no longer a free society... Diminishing education, creates a culture of fear, restricting knowledge, discouraging freedom of thought. What else?
I'm curious as to why people I don't follow or engage with might block me. Additionally, I sometimes come across accounts that have blocked me seemingly out of the blue, which I find perplexing. Anyone else?
