Trump’s second term — which apparently started a day early — is going to be a series of mismanaged, real crises and completely dumb, fake issues. Gonna try to ignore both. 🇺🇸

@manton since Trump’s term has started a day early.. can I put in a special request that it ends a day early?

@manton A fun thing about being Canadian is landing on the receiving end of one of those things and not being able to decide which category it is.

@manton

Good luck ignoring the climate meltdown.

@nickheer U.S. citizen here, but Ii feel the same way.

@nickheer It’s often hard to tell. And at least once it’ll probably be both, as one dumb issue becomes an actual crisis.

@manton As an Italian who had to live through the tragedy of Berlusconi governments when I was young, the lesson is clear: ignore the spectacle and resist, resist, resist

@manton At some point there is going to be a clash between Trump and Musk’s ego. I’m really waiting for that.

@manton Gotta focus on what you can actually affect. At least that’s what I keep telling myself.
