Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

So much stuff flying around I don't know what's real and what's not.
I saw one with trump saying he gave Musk a black eye and teslas are gay.
I really don't know if the US president said this as its feasible.

Yeah although a trite one. Republicans have long been about fiscal conservatism when in opposition and then throw it out the window when in power.

Yep, Jos the answer is to read an actual news source.

In several surveys, the overwhelming first choice for what makes Canada unique is multiculturalism. This, in a world collapsing into stupid, impoverishing hatreds, is the distinctly Canadian national project.

I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

That makes it an unpopular opinion, not a trite one.
