This post is brought to you by further incompetence of my government. What happened is that Ned Stark (and the weather dude) told us that winter was coming. With a bunch of snow even, because winter is a bitch and does things like that. Now, what you need to know about our dear old government (referred to as DOG hereafter) is that their motto is ( Read more... )

Isn't it wonderful when the goverment and politicians are in denial and it is the common people who suffer and then are blamed on incompetence!

I hope you have been safe and so have been the people you care about.

It was really lovely to see though that people immediately jumped in to help. I have never seen anything quite like it around here. As long as we can be there for each other it's not all rotten.

And thanks for the concern. I was actually at a birthday party, so I had a lovely afternoon.

Oh, sweetie.... *huggles*
I know you don't want to come here, but I would totally bring you over for light housework and cooking and cat snorgling (could I put that on the paperwork?) (until you found something else) if I could.

You know, I was actually trying to look into housekeeping jobs, but guess what. You need a shitload of experience and letters of recommendation. So bah.

But you are a sweetie. Thanks. ♥

They're probably in a competition for the Most Crack Government of the World or something. And they still have the guts to blame the people for it, oh Lord... Darling, I'm seriously concerned for your well-being. ;_;

It is a bit like watching a kid play with matches in a barn. Thankfully we developed a rather good sense of humor during our last dictatorship.

IDK, is there an award for Most Crack Government? If not, then there should be.

Yes, it should. Though I think yours has gained the upperhand, I bet ours can do an awnful lot of things after electing the greatest deforester land-grabber to the Commission of Environment and a man who once said black people were cursed and that women rights affect the morals of family to the Comission of Human Rights and Minorities. It would be a tough choice, really.

I might get a bit carried away from time to time, but trust me, I know I'm not the only one who has it bad. And the way I see it, our governments could hold hands on their way to the funny farm.

And you didn't even see the bit where they insisted so adamantly in the media the next day that everything is fine and all roads are clear that people staying at home thus far got into their cars and also got stuck on the highway. Can you say LOLWHUT.

Also, that pic. I laughed so much. Because god yes.
