So, the internet version of the trolly choice problem?

Inaccurate. With Trump you can always count on getting lies.

Hmm… that beet looks kinda similar to a human heart, wouldn’t you say? Is this a subtle suggestion?

Agreed. This is the first article I’ve encountered that explained the economics of possible reunification. Who knew that Northern Ireland receives so much financial support from the UK?

Funny picture!

But GS cookies are pretty awful. They’re full of sugar and palm oil. Maybe if they offered something that’s actually good for us, and the world, they’d sell more?
