Dean F.@VeryBadLlama Trump just announced 30% tariffs on Wakanda, Narnia, and Middle Earth.

ArchaeoIain@ozzelot @VeryBadLlama See my comment elsewhere that we need to stop calling the felon a fascist, but start to use his association with Poutine to call him a communist. USans hate communists.
Catherine McCarthy@VeryBadLlama Draft protest sign for this Saturday. Final version will be bolder black...used up my marker...lol. 🪧 🐧
ahimsa@VeryBadLlama A good parody, but no one in the current administration would *ever* say forgive me.
So I can't resist adding an alternate ending:
"I had to,
they were taking advantage of us
so cunning
and so cold."
Mike Hicks@VeryBadLlama It looks like they used TLDs to determine "countries" to impose tariffs on (which don't necessarily map to places that can be considered independent entities)

avidivaBrilliant! I shared it on Bluesky, if you don't mind. 😆
DarcyHere's the thing. You can tell everything tRump said about other countries having tariffs on the US is pure BullShit!!!
tRump tipped his hand when he said places like Heard Island, a completely unpopulated Island, is screwing the US.
If tRump's lips are moving, tRump is Lying!!!

Chris Samuel@VeryBadLlama @wendynather sorry about this, but as a UK person I think I'm contractually obligated to post this in response to that excellent poem. 😎 https://aardman.fandom.com/wiki/Feathers_McGraw
Feathers McGraw
Feathers McGraw is a villain in the Wallace & Gromit franchise, first appearing in The Wrong Trousers and reappearing in Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl. He is known as a robber and wears a red rubber glove to fool the authorities into making them think he is a chicken rather than a penguin. In his debut, Feathers rented out a room at Wallace's house. He then stole Gromit's room and drove him out by playing loud music. After Gromit was out of Feathers' way, he initiated an idea of a diamon
驯鹿走路@VeryBadLlama I didn’t recognize the poem until the last sentence. This is brilliant and lovely.

copacetic@diffrentcolours @VeryBadLlama The penguins are quite angry now. Huge protests everywhere!
Fluxmind@diffrentcolours you win the internet.

MidniteMikeWrites@VeryBadLlama You kid but penguins are territorial. Let’s see how they respond.
Simon Brooke@VeryBadLlama the penguins of Heard Island are no longer, it seems, unheard.
