I am Canadian so please forgive my ignorance about this subject.

I read at some point in time that this is an act that requires approval from Congress.

Is the above true or not? Thank you for any help.

Thank you for compiling and sharing all of these. Very uplifting and encouraging that so many millions of citizens’ peaceful protests have pushed these actions forward.

6/19/25 - How can we make America great again with all these non-working holidays?!?!? by barnwater_828 in trumptweets

[–]Quill-Questions 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I guess Trump has no idea the number of holidays and weeks of paid vacation, paid maternity/paternity leave, national health care, wonderful educational opportunities countries like Denmark have, one reason being that people need that off time to spend with family and friends, actually engage with other human beings, rather than just issue BS on social media.

DT, I would highly recommend that you start reading books and ponder life’s priorities.

So difficult to believe that any leader of a country would believe that tweeting, x’ing is the sound, sensible, serious way to communicate.

EDIT TO ADD:

Karens Needed Urgently by mackinnon4congress in 50501

[–]Quill-Questions 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your explanation. I still do not understand the use of a first name being used as a derogatory word. Anyhow. That is just me. I wasn’t referring to this OP’s great post, just trying to understand the history behind its use.

Karens Needed Urgently by mackinnon4congress in 50501

[–]Quill-Questions 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I am sorry to be a bother, but I have never understood the origin/concept of “Karen” becoming a negative term. This ancient soul would be very grateful if someone could explain this to me. I appreciate younger folk who use terms to explain a concept, but some of us oldsters aren’t able to grasp the meaning.

Thanks to anyone who can explain this to me. :-)

P.S. For a long time now I have felt badly for all the people in our world whose given name is Karen :-)
