strange women lying in ponds distributing swords actually sounds like a pretty decent alternative right now
@VeryBadLlama Where do I sign up to be a watery bint?
@VeryBadLlama as a fellow subject of His Majesty, I concur. Wanting to be his wife's tampon sounds rather sane in comparison.
@VeryBadLlama @timrichards
While not a matriarchy, a leader who is elected exclusively by the feminine vote sounds pretty good; even if it only one vote.
@VeryBadLlama Fuck yes. Swords are cool as heck.
@VeryBadLlama Whoso pulleth out this sword from this stone and anvil
is the trueborn king
of all Britain.
@VeryBadLlama I have a shirt saying that, together with "2020." I've worn it habitually ever since.
@VeryBadLlama I see this toot around every fortnight now. 🙄
@VeryBadLlama Moist politics. A damp idea indeed.

@VeryBadLlama

Hello 😊

Why are an enemy of the Swedish yule goat please?

Thank you.

@VeryBadLlama

I'd vote for "Watery Bint" if she was standing. I'll have to make do with Viv Rook and the 4Star Party. She's the best.

@VeryBadLlama

Didn’t Monty Python say something about not accepting swords from “watery tarts”? 😉

@VeryBadLlama

I found the exact quote...

"Strange women lyin’ in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony."

ARTHUR: Be quiet!

"Well you can’t expect to wield supreme executive power just ’cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!" 😂 💕

@VeryBadLlama oh, now we see the violence inherent in the system! Come and see the violence inherent in the system! Help, help, I'm bein' repressed!
@VeryBadLlama I seem to remember it didn’t end very well, though…
@VeryBadLlama Farcical aquatic ceremonies are where it's at.
@VeryBadLlama I'm 100% for this in the US too. Send the sword over here when you're done with it.
@VeryBadLlama this is how bernie can still win

I hope a bit of literal understanding of this situation will not offend you.
Today context sounds like more and more problems humanity encounters need #magic solutions, really.
Let it be "how to transform all authoritarian politicians into toads" or "how to send to hell a 'legally non-destructible' dictator" to "how to make abortion in Alabama using only own willpower".
