Well, kids, that's where the betting pool opens.

I don't catch all the news all the time, just learning they got rid of Jacinda. Why? Why in the actual fuck would you get rid of her?

[-] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 7 points 2 weeks ago

She quit, basically. Couldn’t deal with the stress of holding on to her beliefs while facing the soulless ghouls of politics. Using less colorful language, of course.

And to be fair, her kid is about 18 months, im guessing?

Or have I dropped a year or two in my calculations?

A year or two wouldn’t make that much of a difference TBH.
