you're saying it wasn't political? lol

i saw something that said a majority of Brits regret Brexit now but there's nothing anyone can do about it
12:25 pm
hurshy
that made me Sad
12:26 pm
Shirlockc
would like to think the same about "voting for trump" but probably not going to happen
12:26 pm
hurshy
sure but i mean the sad part is the "nothing anyone can do about it" part. like, i think they should be able to hold another vote and rejoin.
12:26 pm
cybernan
I love the political sentiment -- should be etched into brass plaques in the all the world's languages and be hung in the meeting chambers of every government or ruling body, committee, person
12:27 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
i agree -- when brexit was still a question -- i noticed the only people pushing for brexit were rightwing crazies and racist pieces of shit so i figured brexit was a bad idea
12:28 pm
cybernan
The one in the oval office should (in Trump's language) really really big - the biggest ever!
12:28 pm
Shirlockc
in GOLD so he'll see it
12:28 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
i know they spend years working out all the details necessary to accomplish Brexit -- it's possible no one want to spend years redoing all the details to rejoin
12:28 pm
cybernan
the question is can he read it?

putting words on a wall will not stop trunt from being a Malignant Narcissist

I swear he has dementia.
12:30 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
i can't find the O and I'm getting frustrated
12:31 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
trunt has dementia AND narcissism and at least five other serious mental health conditions

and an IQ of about 95...
12:32 pm
hurshy
that's the most disturbing part of the whole thing to me, really. that a significant fraction of americans don't even know what mental illness looks like enough to recognize it in him.
12:32 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
got the O, nbt, woot, tx hurshy
12:32 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
95 is generous lol
12:33 pm
hurshy
dang it why doesn't "prix" count
12:33 pm
cybernan
OH - I don't think it is anywhere near that high, Jan.
12:33 pm
Shirlockc
and he still got voted in
12:34 pm
Shirlockc
and would vote for him again if they could
12:34 pm
hurshy
well, that last number is going down
12:35 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
trunt's niece, Mary, a psychologist, wrote a book about him, which I read, and she listed 6 mental health diagnoses that fit him, but pointed out, he's too short-attention-span to sit for a full diagnosis
12:35 pm
cybernan
surely he won't be able to pull the wool over voters' eyes a third time. However, I would't put it past him to use every illegal trick in the book to make sure opposing votes don't get counted and opposing voters arent allowed to vote
12:35 pm
hurshy
apparently his mom had once said that she hoped he would never go into politics because he would be so awful
12:35 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
he did NOT win the election -- there were at least 12 kinds of shenanigans going on, including the (white racist) electoral college crap
12:36 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
no one in his family supported him for prez
12:37 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
everyone in NYC has known he's a crook and liar -- they've known since 1970s
12:37 pm
cybernan
try to convince people that not voting doesn't help -- the only way to defeat him is to actively vote for the people running against him.
12:38 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
i do my best -- but my days of being able to go to meetings and marches are behind me, mostly
12:38 pm
IndiaJan
I like the old days...where they just ran them out on a rail. the whole clan..including the kushners
12:38 pm
Shirlockc
he already set the stage so if his people don't win, it's fraud
12:39 pm
hurshy
best thing to do now is really donating to the dems running in close senate and house races
12:39 pm
hurshy
like Talarico, Ossof...
12:39 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
he's a nonstop lie-generating machine. best to ignore him as much as possible, anything he says about the war one must actively avoid listening to
12:42 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
he's not allowed to run for prez a third time, but I think he might try to do so, assuming nothing changes in the next 2 years
12:42 pm
cybernan
IIm just glad that I don't live where people are so blindly attached to one political party. I think most Canadians just vote for who they think will give them the best representation and who espouse their own aspirations for the country, regardless of party association.
12:42 pm
hurshy
i really don't see that happening, at the rate he's declining, gwhen
12:42 pm

i'm sure he's already trying to get that third term
