Genuine question, do other countries refer to their current government as “this administration” or “the [leader] administration”?

In my exposure to non-US political discussions, there seems to be more reference to the majority parties or coalitions, where that’s more important to politics than it is in the US with our far-too-powerful executive branch

Right? Like what a take, “I couldn’t draw this so it must be AI.”

Or just some bad-faith attempt to be divisive

From the OP:

The illustration is 100% by hand! I’m a long-time professional illustrator, and AI art is my mortal enemy, lol. As for the text, I added that in Photoshop

Are you kidding? He loves Take Your Human Shield Kid to Work Day!

I finally started making plans for my little patio garden this week, so this is perfect! Thank you!

Damn, time flies. Back in 2013, the media was reporting this as the next big trend among Japanese teens

The same goes for regulations requiring air bags, crumple zones, tempered glass windows, and other safety features designed to protect the occupants of a vehicle. If seatbelts are government overreach, then so are these. It’s my God-given right to die as violently as possible in an easily-preventable accident.

The United States has some very rural areas where you can be the only vehicle on the road for miles. “Stupid” driving is safer for other people there than “smart” driving is in more populated areas.

But if you’re not in favor of totally deregulating public roads in areas like that, then let’s look at just the light situation.

Having a light out is much easier to notice than whether or not someone is wearing a seatbelt, and is also used by law enforcement to pull people over, meet quotas, etc.

If I don’t have headlights, but your taillights work, I can still see your vehicle in front of me and avoid a collision. Likewise, if I don’t have taillights, but your headlights work, either you should see my vehicle in front of you and avoid a collision, or you shouldn’t be driving at all if you can’t tell you’re getting closer to my vehicle.

In both situations, the lights on your car are sufficient to keep you safe if I choose to be “stupid” and drive without lights.

If you think about it, all regulations stemming from the DoT are.

They’re infringing on my right to drive with no head or taillights.

They’re infringing on my right to ignore traffic signs.

They’re infringing on my right to drive on the left side of the road.

They’re infringing on my right to drive a monster truck on the highway.

In a truly free country, I could drive my truck with 66" tires down the so-called “wrong” side of the road in the dead of night with no lights whatsoever. Sure, I might injure or kill someone, but I also might not, and stopping me from doing so is clearly stopping me from my pursuit of happiness.

See, this is what happens when they stop teaching civics in school. Article VIII § 2, “in the event that some means of transportation referred to as an automobile is invented, Congress shall enact no laws that infringe on the inalienable right of all men to launch themselves through the windshield of said automobiles.”

At least read the constitution if you’re gonna make claims like this

Somehow JFK is still beating him in the brains department

Hey, everyone knows it’s way better for one man to have scores of wives than for – gasp – two men to be married

This is Truth Social erasure, and I will not stand for it

What a timeline to be in that our best hope is that it’s just another way to funnel money to his cronies

Oh boy their online Magic clients work so well, I’m sure they can flawlessly implement a subscription-service DM!

Putting the “scroll” in “scrolling desperately through a Discord server for a post that should be pinned”

Authoritarian is a sliding target that can just apply to anything with a government

Anarchists: Yes.

I don’t think Trump likes April 20th for the same reason most of us do…

This is me with Taco Bell’s shredded lettuce. If I get a burrito, I’ll know there’s a piece of lettuce in it two or three bites before I get to it.

Like I love lettuce, spinach, kale, all those leafy greens. But I swear they spray it with artificial lettuce flavoring or something.

Can’t believe you’ve got me supporting something hypothetical Trump did
