Reminds me of the `Headless Horseman of Sleepy Hollow' story, except that this looks more like the `Headless Horse of Sleepy Hollow'.

I’ve always wondered what your shed looks like.

That uninhabited island explanation is rubbish. They are saying the islands are countries which they’re not and even if they were, they are uninhabited so how do you tranship goods. They are just trying to spin an embarrassing blunder.

Putin is giving Trump the run around on a ceasefire deal, has pushed Ukraine out of the Kursk area and continued indiscriminate rocket and drone attacks. Business as usual. He’s got Trump on his side and in his pocket.

Musk’s days are numbered now given his disloyal comments about Trump’s tariffs.

Drop a towel in the bottom of the bath and stand on that.

I once read that most shark attacks occur in waist deep water, because that's where most of the people are.

I don’t think Vance would be able to win an election after four years of Trump. MAGA only has one leader. If something happened to Trump then Vance would get the top job but he doesn’t have Trump’s hold over the GOP and MAGA so he probably wouldn’t be very effective. It wouldn’t matter much anyway because Trump has already set the US on path to self destruction with the rest of the world forging new alliances for better or for worse. The Democrats may get the Senate or House back at the midterms but they won’t be able to do much before the next election and nobody knows what the results of that might be.

When things really go pear shaped Trump will always try to blame others but apart from the ignorant diehards left in his MAGA cohort the rest of America will blame him. Of course, it will be too late and the damage will have been done.

Some interesting observations on Trump's tariffs and the future of America by Professor Richard Wolff:

Good old Bernie Sanders telling it how is is with a glimmer of optimism for the mid-terms: Bernie for President! At least he's a decent person, unlike the destructive clown in the White House.

I saw a few prawn ponds in China that didn't give me a lot of confidence in the product.

My wife was cremated and that's my choice too. The thought of being buried gives me claustrophobia but as you say, it's a personal choice.

No. They have just been a victim of their own success at shipping lots of stuff to the US and not buying much in return. Check out Trump’s nonsensical tariff calculations which have nothing to do with reciprocal tariffs as he claims.

I'm just off to Bunnings now for some cheap timber.
