The Self Inflicted Depression.
Rushi@rushicrypto
If the last one was named “The Great” Depression, what’s this one going to be called?

@CindyCa17837658 @Old_SchoolEddie My middle school Math teacher was Hungarian, and Jewish.
On holidays, she would spend the period talking about what it was like to be a teenager under Nazi occupation.
English

@Old_SchoolEddie Me too. I also am grateful my great grandmother lived with us and sat and talked with me about going through WWII and what they did to survive.

@naomirwolf The self righteous hysterics is exhausting.
No one is killing full term or viable babies. Birth. It’s called birth.
Laws like these protect women from having to carry around a corpse until their body ejects it, at great physical and emotional risk.
English

So what are these desperate situations that justify aborting full term babies?
Zoe Gardner@ZoeJardiniere
@JMcMurdockMP You should be ashamed sharing misleading rubbish. As an MP I’d bloody hope you understand this is about protecting women in desperate situations from criminalisation, & that legal abortion remains very strictly limited & regulated, authorised by 2 doctors up to 24 weeks.

@ShamashAran It’s a poll tax if you have to pay it once to vote.
English

Assuming that a passport was the only way to satisfy the requirements, which it isn't:
Do you have to pay $165 each time you vote?
Then no, it's not a poll tax, you mid-division spindle assembly checkpoint failure.
Jamie Bonkiewicz@JamieBonkiewicz
Reminder: if voting requires a $165 passport, that’s a poll tax. We made those unconstitutional in 1964.
English

@JWhitebread1 That is a pathetic justification, sorry.
Aside from the fact Trump is not a teenager throwing down on a street corner hanging with his besties, intelligent diplomacy includes learning about the OTHER party’s culture so as not to make any gaffes.
English

Okay, I think I need to explain something to any Japanese listeners.
In American culture, very close friends often express affection through a practice we call "giving grief" or less delicately, "bustin' balls."
We insult each other, make inappropriate comments at the other's expense, often at very inappropriate times, etc. It is frankly, one of the surest signs of trust and closeness between equals. We wouldn't do this with someone who WASN'T a very close friend and confidant. You see this more amongst men, and more in informal situations. Admittedly, you don't see it much in professional settings, and it almost never appears in international diplomacy, BUT, Trump is built different.
I have no doubt, that's how Trump meant it. It's too on the nose to be anything else. He's trying to say, we respect you and admire you greatly, and we can banter like this, because we are equals.
The correct response is to utterly ROAST or insult your friend back in response. This can even evolve into what is called a "game of dozens" which is a friendly contest to see you can insult their friend with the best, most scathing insult. I think I will stop before I have to explain "Your Momma" jokes, but I think you can get the gist.
Please feel free to utterly destroy America with a clever insult in response.

@thurmanlady1 @LadyDemosthenes That isn’t setting procedures, though. Think about it a minute.
Those all protect civil rights, which is the role of the federal government.
It’s a fine, but important, distinction.
English

@JamieClass5 @LadyDemosthenes Poor Jamie can't admit that the Constitution does give the federal government the right to set procedures for federal elections, so now it's ad hominem attacks and a block. Apparently, in her mind, the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and the rest of these laws are unconstitutional.

English

Make it make sense:
“A friend”
“But the friend is me”
“But I won’t show paperwork cause I would have to use my former married name”
…
But she’s remarried and was somehow able to change her name again… but was NOT able to change her name back to her maiden name after her not annulment?
And on Facebook her personal timeline doesn’t match up…
Also, girl, you know folks can track all of this down on the internet using Real People Finder right? Like someone with the time and energy can find all of your public records including whatever name you had before your current married name and the name you filed the abuse charges under! (No, I am not that person. I am tired. But it can be done)

@kshields8426 @MJFromTheNS @theficouple No, our heat is gas.
Part of it is having 5 bedrooms, so lights are on all the time. You can’t tell everyone they can’t use their bedrooms until they’re ready to go to sleep. Nope, stay in the den! 🤷♀️
English

@MJFromTheNS @JamieClass5 @theficouple Lived in Vermont for a time...worse winters...never close to 1k per month. Only way I could see that is if one had forced air electric heat...and rarely is that seen in new England or anywhere with a real winter
English

@JamieClass5 @theficouple My wife and I are retired on $85K. We can easily pay a $980 electric bill.
English

@kshields8426 @theficouple California. And since I’m in the foothills and it’s old plaster construction, the house stays cool. I don’t even run the a/c unless it goes over 100 degrees. 4K sq ft, 5 bedrooms.
It USED to be $500/month, pre-COVID.
English

@JamieClass5 @theficouple Where is anyone, not living way over their means, having a 980 electrical bill? It gets to over 100 here during the summers, we have 3k sq ft, and in the hottest month we are half that at absolute most
English

Venezuela is embarrassing. You can’t (shouldn’t) go around kidnapping foreign heads of state. It’s a TERRIBLE precedent!
Trump failed to tell allies what was going to happen, and did not build a coalition of support for attacking Iran. He also failed to anticipate that Iran would attack allies in the Middle East, their own neighbors, and close the Straits of Hormuz. A blind man could have seen that coming.
He’s gotten us into the very “forever war” he campaigned he’d never start. We’re in it, now we have to finish it.
Don’t even get me started on Greenland, Canada, and now Cuba.🤦♀️
And he’s done it all while begging for a Nobel Peace Prize. Please.🙄
English

While any strategy can have its snags, I think the exact opposite. I regularly read someone great at connecting dots, and while foreign affairs is not my thing, I'm finding this all so fascinating. It's no accident that Venezuela was first, either. And then there's Cuba. And China. The strategy seems to be quite brilliant.

@thurmanlady1 @LadyDemosthenes Carolyn, I apologize. I allowed myself to get overly annoyed and responded crudely.
However, that is not entirely correct.
And I’d appreciate no more wild Dem/Left claims. They’re ridiculous.
English

@LadyDemosthenes @thurmanlady1 Yes, she did.
Well, regardless, I sunk to not my best self. I was crude. I’ll unblock her and apologize.
English

@JamieClass5 @thurmanlady1 Boomer didn’t do any of that though.
