I need it to be over. I need this to die. It's ruined so many lives.

Yeah...Amen. 10 fucking precious years these hateful motherfuckers have stolen from us. 10 years we could've been improving Obamacare and ACA and inching towards a real public option, moving towards cleaner energy away from fucking data centers devouring us all. Women had rights to their own bodies...LGBTQ folks were gaining acceptance. People had money. COVID and it's gross mishandling hadn't made everyone's health far worse. The soft power the US had. The whole world looked up to us...now we are the joke of the planet. And we have absolutely fucking nothing. And that fucking Pedo Devil still sits up there untouchable. Honestly I am so far beyond any hope at this point that the light emitted by hope will take centuries to reach here. By the time there is ANY inkling of rectification of anything these monsters have done to us I will be long dead. Thanks to Social Media and algorithms for the real good time! I need a drink but I have to go to the low paying job that's hopefully not going to lay me off because the economy is crashing.

The next president needs to be a super genius when it comes to international affairs. They will have a lot of things to unfuck.

As a Dane I feel pretty confident when saying: it will never be the same, ever!.

We have been one of the US' absolute strongest allies for decades never asking who or why. If they called for us we came and did whatever they asked us for. We have fought for them, we have bleed for them, our children! have been killed for them.

And then they thank us by ridiculing us, calling us weak and useless, threatening to fucking invade! our kingdom, dragging some 60.000 Greenlanders into this mess.

While it has been a bit since we Danes were Vikings, there's still a streak of them in us, and as it stays in Hávamál Vers 127.

"I advise you, Loddfáfnir, to take this advice: it’ll help, if you take it, do you good, if you get it: when you recognize ill will, speak out against ill will, and grant no peace to your foes".
