So if Austria loses in the

today against Spain in the
#WorldCup
, Belgium, Milan, Mantua, Naples, and Sardinia will be transferred again to Vienna, right?

Always good when
@dieworkwear.bsky.social
explains why the fascists' clothes fit so badly. Short answer: they're dumb & they don't know any better. Longer answer: they're dumb, don't know any better, & also are shaped like threatened anteaters. In a world with justice, Derek Guy would be in charge.

Bingo. As much as I love the stories about Freddy, the Tartan Army, & the Viking Row, the idea that this World Cup has disproven the criticisms of Trump’s America is laughable. If anything, it’s confirmed them a thousand times over.

‘the Musical Ride has also become an internationally recognized symbol of Canada.’ I’m Canadian. I’ve never heard of the RCMP’s ‘Musical Ride’. Nor have any foreigners confided, ‘Y’know, the thing I’ve always wanted to see is your RCMP’s Musical Ride.’

Agree with all this, but I genuinely believe that we need to spend more time pointing out just how clownish, how buffoon-like and genuinely moronic these people are. We know they're evil. But they're so DUMB, too.

A group of archeologists at Memorial University have voiced their support for the Innu Nation, saying the Newfoundland and Labrador government has undermined public trust and harmed Innu people.

Royal Ballet and Opera getting rid of 5% of their staff, in part by replacing staff with 'volunteers'. Really shocking that a national institution thinks that it should just--not pay people who work for them. CEO Alex Beard earns £343,000. Maybe he could 'volunteer'?
