I'm appalled that someone would use their talents to produce something as irresponsible and dangerous as #ghostguns! It's a disgrace that this Cody Wilson character is profiting from something that puts lives at risk. We should be promoting #responsiblegunownership, not glorifying this kind of activity! #ProtectOurCommunities #PutSafetyFirst https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/qjvwqx/death-athletic-documentary-jessica-solce-cody-wilson
@jackLondon I am describing a characteristic associated with sheep and often attributed to humans, you’re objection is noted. 🤔Have a good day.
@miki_lou Take, Take, TAKE! How much trashing can Gaia take?
@jackLondon I’ve been speaking in metaphorical, an analogy basis. You understand that, yes? Or are you accusing me of insulting the sheep? 😋
There are various breeds of sheep - merino is one I beleive
None of them volunteer for anything and I am not up on research into their emotional state.....or whether such animals have fantasies
@jackLondon These are natural or volunteer sheep happy, apathetic, or just not strong enough to resist or assert. Maybe it was that self serving fantasy that they gulped down. Easier to just hoof it down the shoot to their shearing. 😳
I don't think sheep get to vote.... humankind is not perfectable - no surprise that. Planning on the basis that it is seems to me an error that will always result in disappointment
@billyjoebowers The Broken Bad GOzP, guaranteed to come down on the wrong side of every human interest issue and controversy. “Go with the money… always. You’re just the little whiny sheep, why should we fight for you?” 🤑 #InProfitsWeTrust
@Free_Press So the poison left on his own accord. The fate of those assets? May they 🔥 in the fire of their own making.
Rupert Murdoch, whose sheer force of will allowed him to build a media empire that influenced the course of national politics in the U.S., U.K. and Australia, will step down as the titular head of the companies he controls, Fox Corp. and News Corp. — a move that could raise new questions about the fates of both assets.

@WarnerCrocker #GOzP When they look at their options, anarchy looks like a preferred state (to them) as compared to a sane, functioning government represented by the people, all of the people, expressing the will of the majority, who btw, holds their noses in disgust at their blatant anti-democracy tactics. “But we’re patriots” they scream with a wink to their co-conspirators hoping the gullible sheep continue to be fooled, or are happy living in a pseudo-democracy.
House GOP rejects Rules bill to begin debate on Pentagon Spending. (Again)
Given the chaos.
No chaos is too easy a description.
Given the anarchy.
Not that either.
Given the bullshit that passes for responsible leadership
That’s it.
Why are we even allowing the House of Representatives to even pretend to conduct business?
Chancellor Scholz warned against "pseudo-solutions" when seeking peace in Ukraine at the UN General Assembly.
"We must steer clear of any pseudo-solutions where ‘peace’ is merely a word. Peace without freedom is oppression."
