A propos of the news this week, does anybody else feel like we are the subjects of an experiment by an alien race, and at this point the aliens are all drunk and laughing and shouting “turn it up! turn it up!”
I’m choosing to believe that some experiment with the God particle and CERN has gone horribly wrong, and this is the parallel universe where the crazy (seemingly improbable) things are happening.
I’m hoping the rest of the world, especially democratic countries that were considering electing stupid but charismatic populists, are watching and seeing how badly it turns out (i.e. Maybe these constant US embarrassments caused some of the French to go for Macron rather than le Pen, or at least to not vote). I’m hoping the US is strong enough to survive this and that we’re taking one for the global team as a big, hey don’t do this.
I 100% think the tide is swinging the other way in Europe because Trump has been such a disaster. Who knows for sure if Macron would have won anyway, but I definitely think Trump’s antics contributed to his big win.
I like the outfit idea. I think it would work well with the Louis Vuitton Pont- Neuf MM (really expensive though) or the Von Baer Business City Leather Laptop Bag in black (more affordable with quality leather). Any other suggestions?
