The Labyrinth with David Bowie and the infamous bulge

Everything he does is under the cover of it being a case of National security, except for Americans actually feeling secure

Sadly the past tense is not the case…

I can hear the flatearthers shaping a compromise

Isn’t this what the USA has been invading countries in the middle east for?

Or at least using as an excuse to get to the oil?

Its not that. But the smile is unnerving. That said, I guess it is a cultural thing. People do smile at each other, in other places, and are genuinly kind, just not as “extremely” and “superficial” as this.

It’s one of 3 days off this week, and that’s only because I sacrificed one additional day off to fake an extra shift on Friday. It pays double though, because of union regulations, even though I’d have taken it for regular pay anyway.
