Introverted, antisocial, intolerant of stupidity. Intelligence is now artificial, cognitive and critical thinking have left the room, and the tsunami of ignorance rises every day. Fuck that, I'm gunna go play with my dogs.

hmm, chess and military strategy, hey? sounds like a curious man, always thinking one step ahead... 😉 and yeah, that book blew my mind, and I actually wrote about a thousand word synopsis afterwards, just to remember the highlights (and fuck the drugs must've been good back in those days, hey?😂)

we'd probably only need one courageous billionaire with ethics, principles, morals, and empathy, and that could change everything across the entire globe but as you've stated, you don't get rich by being kind, and they really don't give a fuck about anything but money sad, but true

Firstly, it's not a war, is it? It's genocide; only one side is fighting! Secondly, the main change involves politicians switching from 'Lest we forget...' to 'Couldn't care less...' Thirdly, Guardian writers collaborate in this new holocaust. Shame on you! www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The @houstonchronicle.com posted this video and it's pretty jarring. No matter that he was fleeing, law enforcement officers may not use deadly force on someone who poses no significant risk of death or serious injury to others. Deliberately hitting someone with a car is a use of deadly force.

“Australia opposes the death penalty in all circumstances for all people.”* *Except, apparently, when Pete Hegseth wants to put it on the telly.
Senator Penny Wong tweet from May 2023:

“Australia condemns Iran’s barbaric abuses of human rights and reaffirms its call on Iran to immediately cease all executions.

Australia opposes the death penalty in all circumstances for all people.

We will continue to work with partners to hold Iran to account.”
