Nooo. JK Rowling won't hurt you. She's beautiful inside and out. She would have been a great president following @Milktoast Bandit and @Sandie33 . JK I wanted you to run for presidency. Why...why...??

What on Earth is going on with your Brexit?
Getting Merkel out, and dissolving the EU will make the "stay" lobby look pretty foolish.
Here in MA watching people's Twitter feed freak out.

Dude seriously ? Have you ever been outside America ? I've been to Berlin. It's beautiful, welcoming, international. They've let the past go, they lost the war and won the peace. They're smart, peaceful and warm. They don't tolerate fascists, they've accepted over a million refugees from war zones. I'm no Merkel fan, but they've moved on. Britain etc, could learn something from them.
Yes, this is exactly the feeling I had when I visited Berlin. I love how you have put that..
"they lost the war and won the peace"
Germans are inspiring. And I am a huge Merkel Fan.

Going out later at night in a foreign city ? I don't think I've ever felt as safe and at ease. They were so relaxed and welcoming. Seeing how many older people, pensioners etc went out late told it's own story. They're educated, happy and living in the present not the past. We have more to fear from our own prejudice and ignorance, than we do from them. I'm glad you had a good time there. It's a wonderful place, and they don't hide from the past either. It's on display all around Berlin. They've learned from it, good luck to them.
Just to clarify a little, I'm pretty sure Flavus has travelled a lot and is actually Australian and lives in Australia, despite having visited the US before...
What are you ten?? Not a cool remark at All!
And, Yes.. That was meant in my meanest outside voice.

Ok my bad. I think I tried to be gentle @hush .It's just that there's been some very very unpleasant things going on in Britain since the Brexit vote. Even if it's something that someone supports, I hope they appreciate that. The violence and hatred stirred up by it, is deeply troubling.
The increases in violent and racist assaults, people being spat on, attacked told to "go home". These are not illegal immigrants either, and Britain has many many people living and working abroad itself. I'm sure that includes Australia and America, as well as large parts of Europe, where many British people are happy to enjoy the better weather.

Half of my relatives live in Germany and Austria. Perhaps, if you had visited Berlin in the last year, and were female you might have a different perspective.
Idealistic fantasies of utopian urban societies is as laughable now, as Rousseau's fantasy of the societies of 'noble savages' two centuries ago.
Anyhow, back to the thread topic... I think I'll listen to some Beyonce by choice for the first time in my life, and let my imagination concoct the lyrics of a durge for the death of snooty feminism.
Britain and US are in the bar.
BRITAIN: Brexit is the stupidest, most self-destructive act a country could undertake.
USA: Hold my beer.

I need to get my coffee drank before I move to quick.
My Dumbass fell asleep some where between 8:30 last nite and WTF am. I'm in shock. I did not believe Donald could get elected. I just hope his naieve narcissistic self doesn't empty the cookie jar and change the map on is all :-/
Resignation and cynicism is the easy way. No responsibility, sitting invisibly on the sideline - the righteous critic sitting on his hands criticising others' efforts. Unless you are in the arena, your opinion is only worth the dust it sits on..
Realism is always more satisfying and effective. I highly recommend it.
