Officer who shot and killed Black toddler in Mississippi resigns from police force

Finland: Far-right party holding a racist "protest"; Over Quadruple come to counter protest and punch some Nazis.

Spain: landlord tries evicting old lady after unjustly raising rent to a point he knew she can't afford; Mass protests country wide.

France: Students get ignored about their schools not being repaired and extreme heat due to no AC and climate change; Riots and Flames.

USA: Woman stealing diapers for her baby has her baby murdered, murderer and department face no consequences, politicians just straight up saying killing the literal baby is fine over theft of diapers;

Nothing.

It'll end up as "Vote stupid parties, win stupid prices"

I was a pessimist, therefore the results have actually come out pretty good to me. Far right didn't win Belgium, and Left party gained a lot of seats in Finland while right wing parties lost seats. Yeah Germany (eyes them suspiciously) and France turned out very right, but a lot of the other countries stayed about ideologically the same or gained left leaning seats.

Overall it seems it's balanced enough to keep going with the corporate accountability / public convenience stuff we've been seeing here in the EU, especially related to tech.

My wife came out as gay last night

Well, a lot of downer comments here in a way, so even though you probably don't need it maybe, here's a half glass full ego boost for you:

Apparently you're such an amazing guy, you made a lesbian think she's bi so strongly she went as far as marrying you. Like, you must be charismatic, kind, and charming as heck for it to have gone that far, if you think about it. An asshole dude on the other hand would have caused her to doubt she was ever bi.

So yeah, at least I think it's safe to say if you ever do get in another relationship with someone more hetero, it should be very likely to be a great success. And, you still come out of this with potentially a best friend too while at it.
