Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Just a thought, how about capping company donations to a political party to a small percentage of the tax they pay in our country? So if they pay no tax, no donation. 020
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Could Trump be desperately trying to be declared insane? Insanity is his only way out now, with Mara Largo being transformed to a private sanatorium (with him the only 'inmate'). He keep doing increasingly insane things, yet instead of doing what he wants, his followers cheer him on! 010
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 30/08/2026Once the USA wakes up and replaces the current regime, the cost of repairing all the damage caused will be massive. Every dollar that is spent on repairing the damage will be used by Republicans as evidence of poor fiscal management. Be aware, and be warned. 110
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 24/04/2026Thought this was worth posting just now... “This boy is Ignorance. This girl is Want. Beware them both, and all of their degree, but most of all beware this boy, for on his brow I see that written which is Doom, unless the writing be erased.” — Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol. 020
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 08/04/2026Oil has dropped under $100 a barrel overnight, so how soon will petrol prices drop to reflect that, considering how fast they rose? A week, two weeks? Or never? 111
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 04/01/2026Out of interest, the USA says it's running Venezuela after kidnapping it's President. Did they leave any troops or administrators there? Doesn't Venezuela still have it's Government in place, it's administrators running things? Is this a new definition of 'running' a country? 010
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 03/01/2026So, does this mean if another country believes Trump has commited crimes in their countries, they have a legitimate reason to kidnap him from the USA and take him for trial under their laws? 020
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 19/10/2025If AI data centres create a lot of heat and need loads of water to keep them cool, why are we not building them near hospitals, care homes and population centres, and using the heat and hot water to supply our populations with heating and hot water? 150
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 05/10/2025Our UK Home Secretary wants there to be more restrictions on those arrested at protests. Totally ignores the fact that many of those arrested are pensioners with a moral cause and nothing to lose. Look at WHY they protest, and fix that. 131
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 28/08/2025Out of interest, how many gang controlled areas have ICE or the National Guard gone into, and how many heavily armed, tattooed gang members have they arrested? I'm sure locals can direct them to known hangouts. Just asking.... 130
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 22/06/2025Goodness! After over 60 years on Earth, I've just seen a Ladybird with no spots! Didn't know that was possible, just goes to show you are never too old to learn something new. 030
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 22/06/2025I know I may be old fashioned, but I really can't understand why sending troops to fight in, firing missiles into, or bombing another country is not a declaration of war. Don't care who you are or who started it, you are performing an act of war against another country. 130
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 08/05/2025Was looking last year at buying an iPhone 16 Max, priced at about £1,700 UK. Same phone now £1,500. Is this an effect of US tariffs, reducing demand there, and meaning more need to be sold in the rest of the world? 130
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 02/05/2025Should I tell my US followers that a dozen (12) large eggs costs me £3.15 ($4.19) here in the UK? Oh, and some places it could be as low as £2.70 ($3.59). That's large eggs by the way, not medium or small... 040
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 18/04/2025So Trump the lightweight wants to drop out of negotiations with Russia to stop the war because he has failed to get the deal he promised? 010
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 18/04/2025UK Supreme Court has ruled women are defined by biological sex (DNA markers?). By default and logic, this means trans men are women and have a protected right to use women only spaces, no? 131
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 18/04/2025Can someone let Trump know the UK is not available for a State Visit in September, we are washing our hair that month... 020
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 07/04/2025Stock markets are falling due to USA action, but is this a long term problem? The rest of the world is looking at alternatives to the US market, and we will all be working together on creating different markets. Long term, the only loser is the USA. Just don't panic. 010
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 27/03/2025We saw what the Conservatives did to our country, we are now seeing what Labour is doing. What compasionate, sensible alternatives do we have left? Could this be the time for the Lib Dems to step up? What happens if disgruntled Labour MPs move to the Lib Dems? 330
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 24/03/2025What are the chances the visit by Usha Vance and a gang of Trump sycophants to Greenland will be used to manufacture an international incident where Trump threatens to, or sends in, troops to 'protect American citizens'? 010
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 19/03/2025If Trump's tarrifs mean non-US companies widen their customer base and become less reliant on the US, that's a win for those companies, isn't it? And a long term loss for the US? 010
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 17/03/2025Seen a lot of negative news about Ukraine retreating from Kirsk. Remember, it was thought they could never go into Kirsk, and if they did, they would be kicked quickly out. They achieved the impossible! Glory to Ukraine! 020
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 13/03/2025Putin says the underlying cause of the war needs to be addressed... that's easy, the cause is his troops invading the Ukraine, remove them and there is no war. 020
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 05/03/2025Given a certain President admires and respects Putin and Russia, does this mean he is a communist? After all Russia is a communist country, isn't it? 010
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 04/03/2025Was watching clips from Les Miserables when it suddenly dawned, Trump is Thénardier! 010
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 17/02/2025For some unknown reason, just spent an afternoon downloading all my Amazon books to my PC, and importing them into a specific reader, not sure why... Was most worried about the Pratchett ones, though have them in hardback too. Suspect they might be subversive... 010
Tepic Harlequin @tepicharliquin.bsky.social · 16/02/2025Lot of talk about AI doing certain work. Thing is, AI is a tool, like a hammer. It requires a human, with intent, to make it do something, and like a hammer, the intent might be positive, negative or negligent. 020
