If that’s what you need to do, then do it. Quite a few of these tech companies are changing their approach.

No. It’s an indictment on them. Not on all Americans. Now you just need to sort out the enabling and you can start to heal.

Well if I have to dress like that, it’s a price I’m not willing to pay!

I think they went to decadence at any cost and side-stepped the concept of ‘class’ as in ‘how one acts in a variety of situations’. They seem to applaud the crass. We in the UK and Europe taught them little.

So what does that make anyone using the phrase ‘incredibly low intelligence’? Asking for a friend, obviously!

It’s an attempt to cause an issue that allows him to postpone the mid-term elections.

Sorry, I read ‘demented’ as ‘fermented’. My mistake. As you were, etc.

Must say that Sebastian Faulk’s ‘Farewell to Eden’ is absorbing. He’s never disappointed. His books have a knack of making me not wanting to finish them. Yes, they can be uncomfortable, yes they can make me think, or re-think things, but that’s a good thing!

Books waiting patiently. Which next? Ps there’s more. I buy more than I can read.

Dear America. Your President. What on earth is going on in his head and why do his enablers not call time on this madness? Yours etc

Well he obviously swallowed it!

Erm. They were voted in. Not that I agree with a single word they say. The voters carry the responsibility for this. It’s far wider than the people actually doing it.

Love it. Bookshops exude a sense of calm. Endless possibilities.

Of course it was. And to use religion as the excuse! But we knew what they were like before he was elected.

Now THAT is cool!

With all that’s going on in the world, I thought I’d cheer myself up with a good book. ‘A possible Life’ by Sebastian Faulks. Wonderful and gifted Author. Tough book though.

Well at least the ear is intact from bullet damage, so it’s accurate.

And the point of him is what exactly?

Why on earth would anyone even consider tampering with that law? It makes everyone wonder who he is moving to protect. What goes on in his head?

Black History is world history. I’m in the UK. We all need to learn and remember.

But you have written it? Just checking! 😉 Would be funny if you hadn’t done it yet!

Europe has seen this before. Not that you’ll listen.

The issue comes alive when you consider the point at which people become embroiled in the darkness. From the uk, I don’t believe all republicans are Trumpian, but too many have literally sold their souls and gone to the dark side, so to speak. How do you row back from that when it’s too late?

Don’t give him ideas!

ianb62.bsky.social @ianb62.bsky.social · 10/09/2026
It’s all bollocks, but does he actually believe what he says? Cos that’s even more scary!

All sounds a bit of a mess tbh !

In fact all of the NATO countries answered, as per our word. Danes, Brits, the lot. Allies. Allies who hold to their word. Remember the concept? US. You voted him back in again.

Good grief. Aren’t there rules about this? In that you need to be dead and then honoured?

ianb62.bsky.social @ianb62.bsky.social · 03/09/2026
No. Sadly not. Long programme on UK channel 4 this evening which should be damning , but the supporters will not watch, listen or change. It’s similar to the US cult.

Why aren’t the media calling this out? On the day when it’s announced that this is the hottest summer on record? Disasters across the globe! It’s almost like they aren’t allowed to!
