No shit, Sherlock.

Ready to collapse?

I didn't say it wasn't? I just said the new party and it's leadership are a joke. I didn't say anything about the UK, itself.

Joke of a name for a joke of a party. Corbyn et al have already lost all credibility after the launch debacle.

Thankfully, the UK has more than one alternative to choose from, both the Greens and LibDems are shaping up to be strong left-challenges to the Uniparty and Reform.

And 45 in Fahrenheit is just cool, light jacket weather.

I mean... They're Republicans, so that's sort of a given. Frankly, it's a small surprise that she's allowed to speak for herself at all, so far she really hasn't. I assume that's how JD likes to keep it, "seen, but not heard."

What's it with kitties insisting on stealing our drinks and letting themselves go thirsty if they're stuck with a bowl, fountain, or cup of their own?

I don't disagree about "American" being too vague, or the implied cultural supremacy over the rest of the Americas, I just hate the specific term "Unitedatatesian" because it's long and ridiculous. Besides, it doesn't really solve the problem of vagueness, it just shifts the question from "Where in the Americas" to "Which United States," since (while the USA is probably the first country you think of when someone says "America" or "United States") there are other federal republics, some of which use the same or similar language.

If you want to use a seperate word that's more specific to the United States of America, we already have one that's deeply connected to our history and culture, which is easy to say, and which won't get us confused with people of any other country: "Yankee." It's even used already in a lot of countries, notably by the English, and variants of it are used in other countries.

Yeah, that's why he's saying it, dipshit.

I despise "unitedatatesian" as a demonym. If you don't like "American," just say Yankee.

But yeah, Trump needs to either support Ukraine or fuck off. Our nvolvement is only desirable if it involves a shitload of material support to Kiev, not this backstabbing bullshit.
