Yeah mate I know how good their laser printers are.

Doesn’t alter this canon trucking along for the time it has

Thanks for that effort, appreciated.

Again today I’m thankful I don’t live there.

We still use our old Canon all the time

Yes, it’s cheaper to buy a new printer than cartridges but this printer is 7 years old.

Who, Australia or NZ?

I got nothing to go on, I’ve been to neither ski field but I’ve heard repeatedly that NZ is a different league.

Wouldn’t there be better skiing in Canada? I’m of the mind it’s like comparing Australian ski slopes to NZ.

bro plz…bro…cries

To be honest it’s a meaningless statement outside what you’ve said.

Like the electorate take no responsibility for the vote result, the leaders take none for their actions.

This administration and Trump reflect the nation.

Hear, hear

‘Open source means we make no money’

Oh yeah. They’re shit scared.

Yeah that point is hard to argue ay, even with the better leaders.

he’s broken his electoral coalition

He did that a while ago. None of that really matters though, because there’s now an iron grip on the judiciary and policing and probably on the military.

Unless they get another fair election, then it has licence, but things don’t look that good on that front.

pissed off so many of their own voters

They’re worried about physical backlash to that, not electoral. They’ll vote R anyway, but again, it’s going to be likely voting is pretty much redundant.

That would be where you’re wrong.

I hope you’re right and I’ll admit on the levels you’ve pointed out, the wheels are turning. Overall, it’s not making much difference though; the administration is still willingly carrying out its pogroms and disregarding the rule of law. So I don’t know if I’m wrong. We’ll see.

Respectfully, I think there’s too much good info…

Certainly there’s a bit, but there’s also a lot of hope based on a couple of good things occurring like there was before the election. Those of us who called they’d allow Trump to run, then elect Trump, the institutions would collapse where all pretty well ridiculed for calling it.

One way or another the next election won’t be fair, if it’s held at all, and the Democrats won’t win the midterms. I hope I’m wrong, I truly do. It doesn’t matter what the swing on these ones tell you, the one that matters won’t be fair.

I see the same here in a big way, but I hope you’re right. I think too much is pinned on hope. I don’t think you’ll vote your way out of this, I’m sorry. The sooner that shutdown is undertaken the better. Hopefully next time they learn that voting is the easy way to stop it.

What Democrats picking up a couple of vacated seats this early in his second term?

Nice, but it isn’t stopping anything is it? That’s no gauge on the midterms being fair either, just quietly.

Hey, I hope you’re right but it’s more hope I think. They need to act, now, as a unit.

The US really hates its children doesn’t it?

This should be enough for everyone to say ‘fuck this’ and stop doing anything and everything to shut the country down and force the wealthy to make the houses act.

Until they do, they are a nation that lets their children be abducted and imprisoned, willingly. Among other awful things.

Thank you, that was just very useful. Deleted. One more gone.

Yep, sounds like the US to me.

There’s accountability for those in power overseas who are named in it.

Why is the US different?

Edit: I guess the last bit of your comment explains it well enough.

Me as well, I’ll never get it.

That can be run without Ring, Alexa or any other smart house crap.
