The dissonance is amazing. There are ads for murcan tourism playing on tv here ( Australia ). The ads depict national parks, playing children, scenes of beauty. Then you see the real murca in these photos. The scenes from ‘Fallout’ are closer to reality than the tv ads. Makes you wonder who they think they’re fooling with the ads. We laugh at them ( the ads, not the murcans) the same way you laugh at old popeye cartoons.

I worked in a Citrix environment for long enough to know this is just stupid.

I’m comforted by the fact that we have such a substandard internet in Australia that the day would be over before an only online machine would even boot. And before you start, there’s no way I’d usr the flaky starlink solution either. I say “bring back the video store”. Where is Schitts Creek star Johnny Rose?

Germans had a prideful couple of years when France fell but then it got ugly. So average mercan will no doubt celebrate on the short term about how great frump and merca are. Reality for them is a few years away. Think of this as 1938. Merca didnt join the war against nazis in 1942 ‘til Europe was defeated and england was on its knees.
