I tend to keep a tab to the BBC news page open on my work computer to have something innocuous to switch to if my boss walks over. The China Derangement syndrome is getting really bad. :xi-god-emperor:

UPDATE - I made myself some tea :comfy:

    Is this like the media freakout when Trump had two scoops of ice cream?

    One of the most disgraceful spectacles in a long parade of depravity.

      I somehow missed that one. Had I known I would have been more vocal in getting the dang cheeto outta there

        Yeah, it was this White House luncheon or something. Everyone had a scoop of ice cream. But Trump - he got - and this reduced me TO TEARS - he got two scoops of ice cream!

        Legitimate, credentialed journalists who we trusted to tell us what was going on in important matters absolutely freaked out over it. They went into outraged tirades that lasted a full week.

        Over a fucking scoop of ice cream.
