Has everyone in the US realised that because of Republican voters, their country has just lost all the international stature and credibility it has amassed since their ancestors entered World War I? It doesn't matter who wins the next presidential election. The one after that may still deliver another insane Republican populist who is fun to watch on TV. We simply can't trust that country's citizens any more.

The first ten million years were the worst," said Marvin, "and the second ten million years, they were the worst too. The third ten million years I didn't enjoy at all. After that I went into a bit of a decline. 🤣

@Natasha_Jay I love Marvin!
"Come on," he droned, "I’ve been ordered to take you down to the bridge. Here I am, brain the size of a planet and they ask me to take you down to the bridge. Call that job satisfaction? ’Cos I don’t."
It's funny how they later forget him on some planet and he then waits there until the end of the universe, and then of course complains bitterly about it. 😆
@jajo ja, somliga menar till och med att tid är den enda tillgången som spelar roll egentligen.

@torsten snyggt. En liten motståndshandling kan räcka långt. Låt inte tisdagen definiera dig! @Karinkvittrar
@Karinkvittrar jag har stött på tisdagar förut, de kan verka skrämmande och överväldigande först men det finns hopp: en välplacerad frukost kan få tisdagen ur balans tidigt. Går man sen på offensiven går det att komma förbi den ganska enkelt.

Are there any folks out there who want to help organize a Mobile track with me at #FOSSY this year? 😁
@mastodonmigration yes I think this will be a problem for the US in the future. They have until now been seen as a reliable partner; if you bought something from the US you could rely on that not suddently disappearing. A reputation that has been built over many decades, even centuries, is now quickly being destroyed.
The damage is done, even if Trump goes away the rest of the world now knows that the US can at any moment elect another unhinged maniac president. The US can no longer be trusted.
So the US is now backing a dictatorship (Russia) that invaded a democratic country (Ukraine).
I want to say to US citizens: this is on you. Your country is supposedly a democracy, but your current president is an authoritarian who is apparently either insane or is willingly acting on a foreign dictator's behalf. You need to fix that, right now. Use the system you have. Talk to your representatives and demand action. Why is Trump not being impeached right now?
2/2
Please, US citizens, stop your lunatic president. Your system has something called impeachment, right?
> Donald Trump defended Vladimir Putin and said the Kremlin leader was "doing what anybody would do".
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/mar/08/russian-attacks-on-ukraine-intensify
> US backs Russia ahead of G7
> Trump administration ordered the US technology company Maxar to stop sharing its satellite images with Ukraine of Russian positions on the battlefield
