    In a way I’m bummed that I probably won’t see any of the space sci-fi come true where everybody sounds British.

    I see the delusion is progressing.

    There’s no point trying to make sense of this, she’s nuts, and just in a sad depression way, not in a fun entertaining way.

      Usually, terraforming includes belching greenhouse gases to melt polar ice caps. Arrival with Charlie Sheen plays on this.

      We currently are with fossil fuels.

    Couldn’t even beat a lettuce, but still dream of beating on people who already decades ahead of space flight.

    What’s really frustrating about Liz Truss is she is too stupid to understand how stupid she is. If she could wrap her head around that, she might just shut up and we’d never have to hear from her again.

      let’s see you become britain’s second female prime minister.

      EDIT : OK, I guess

      1. The joke that she was already britain’s nth female prime minister didn’t go well
      2. Theresa May was britain’s second female prime minister, truss was the third
      3. to be clear, she achieved nothing and to hell with her.

        My favourite joke was to refer to her as “Conservative party backbencher, Liz Truss” but after looking her up on Wikipedia, I see that she has since lost her seat, so even that doesn’t work.

          the joke is "oh, you think you’re so much better than her? Let’s see you achieve the only achievement she has (becoming the third female british prime minister) when you can’t become the third of anything AGAIN.

          I guess it all got fumbled and was shit to begin with.

            Probably US Defaultism didn’t help. heh. I watch panelshows so I know a little more news than the average, but it still whooshed me.

            I think it wasn’t so much poorly done as just didn’t land quite well AND once anything gets a downvote or two, it snowballs. heh.

            Thank you for explaining. I may not be falling down laughing, but I am quite amused. <3

    The assertion comes in the former British prime minister’s new book “Bank Job,” which was published Monday and claims to explain “how the Bank of England broke the bond market and brought down the government” when her mini-budget in 2022 precipitated market turmoil.

    I understand.

    Liz Truss infiltrated the Tories while secretly being a revolutionary aiming to develop the UK into Fully Automated Luxury Gay Space Communism, but she made the unfortunate mistake of showing her hand too early by assassinating the queen three days in, which caused the bankers to realize what she was doing and coordinate a crash in a bourgeois conspiracy to oust her from power.

    It all checks out.

    [This is a bit, obviously]

    I’m more likely to lob a head of lettuce to the moon than the UK gets to Mars before the end of this century.

    She’s a fucking loon.
