Borough Market, right? Great spot.

They renamed “Office 365” to “Microsoft 365 Copilot”.

All future documents must be in Fraktur.

Is this recognition that DPRK is an absolute monarchy/brutal dictatorship and not a glorious socialist utopia?

ICE is separately funded with an absolute fortune. They have nothing to worry about here.

It’s what he would have wanted.

Haha, I’ve heard this same joke before but with Ian Paisley, the unionist leader in Northern Ireland.

“How did you know that that would be a tragedy, if my plane were to crash?”

“Well it wouldn’t be a great loss, and it definitely wouldn’t be an accident.”

It’s a good one.

He slapped a 50% tarrif on Lesotho, so it’s clearly not about size or impact.

And the UK got a 10% tariff applied even though the US doesn’t have a goods trade deficit with them.

Fuck, don’t threaten me with a good time.

Projection.

It’s a patronymic, so she has it because her father’s name is “Frosti”. But that name presumably comes from “frost”.
