My ex just texted me He was prime minister for 4.1 Scaramuciβs this just reminded me that my 19 year old is trying to get "one fat cat" to be used as a measurement of weight, cause we own one fat cat that weighs 12 lbs. lol

Can someone explain the parliament stuff to me like I know nothing about parliament? π Honestly the BBC is best for these things. And no shame or embarrassment! Rapid political momentum is confusing for even the most plugged in of people, especially in another country. I've followed UK Parliamemt for decades and I still google a LOT. www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-46393399Thank you, the flow charts help. π
Itβs so different from US politics, turnover can happen so quickly!

Boris has entirely lost control. Expect elections next week. This is bananas, but was entirely predictable BREAKING: The government has been defeated in a crucial Brexit vote as a significant amount of Tory MPs rebel the whip. Not since William Pitt the Younger in 1793 has a British Prime Minister lost their first vote. #HouseOfCommons AYES: 328 NOES: 301 MAJORITY: 27 t.co/FJARqzj2D4I'll be honest, I did not expect this. However, I may live near too many British immigrants who are Leavers, despite the fact that they live in Portugal and are able to utilize our healthcare system based on the EU principles of free movement...

But the questions spurred a lot of debate between my H and myself because we are both, uh... opinionated. Lol. So we just asked the questions and argued amongst ourselves.

When I met mh, Indy did not like me because I took his little spoon spot in the bed. He grew to love me. I have a picture somewhere of Indy and DS1 when they both weighed the same thing at the same time. Lol.

Happy slightly belated birthday, misspatty! Apologies for missing it, I was off dealing with the clingiest of fever-recovering toddlers. FFWC, I relied heavily on Sesame Street on Demand to get through yesterday. I really need my kid to understand he's still watching "Elmo", even if Elmo isn't on screen.

This is infuriating This weekend, a right wing bot network spread the completely false rumor that the Odessa shooter had a Beto sticker on his car. This was even echoed by Trump advisors. t.co/j3TmhvYkLh

Even here in MA. Itβs crazy.

But then how will the privileged white women homeschool their kids so they don't get shot up in schools and can avoid all of those librul teachers who want to teach *gasp* evolution? Think of the CHILDREN, dc2london. Jeez Louise.
