Jokes aside, I do not consider this administration capable during an emergency. We all saw how Trump handled COVID and that was with semi-competent people in his administration. If a real emergency happened they’d fuck it up beyond comprehension.

I guess I’ll piggyback on the other comment and say laziness doesn’t exist at work. People definitely have off days or hate their job, but I’d say pretty much all the “laziness” I have experienced in my life at different jobs usually boils down to awful work conditions, managers or bosses that don’t care about you, not getting paid enough for the actual work, or general distain for your corporate overlords if you work for a big company. Some may call me lazy, but I’m working exactly as hard as I feel like they deserve when I’m 30 years old and still living in a studio apartment one paycheck away from being homeless. And I’m not gonna work at 100% when 100% of my needs are not being met. And I make more than anyone else in my family so I’m technically the “successful child.”

Less than a week after he said “Why are we upset at Canada? This is so stupid.”

Either he’s incredibly dumb (highly likely) or someone paid him to say that (also highly likely)

I know this is basically an Onion article, but I got some thoughts on this.

Honestly, I used to feel like that was a totally viable option when travelling to other countries as an American. Never did it myself but It was easier than explaining that you’re not one of the “bad” ones. I’ve definitely heard my fair share of horror stories about Americans in other countries.

These days I’d just find it extremely disrespectful. At this point we really have no fucking excuse to not be better. If we don’t own it and get our shit together I don’t think we have a right to even pretend we are on the same level as Canada. The amount of solidarity Canadians have against the US right now is the kind of solidarity we wish we had. We’d rather fight with each other about whose fault it is and laugh at the ones that voted for Trump rather than come together. And just because you didn’t vote for him doesn’t mean you are automatically absolved of any responsibility. It’s like saying Russia isn’t the enemy because there are people there that disagree with the invasion of Ukraine.

It’s like abusing a significant other and saying it’s your fault that they had to do it.

Balatro is Canadian?! Well shit, I already bought it like 4 times for various platforms.
