Hunt other rich men for sport, and have my very expensive team of lawyers keep me out of prison.
Before I say anything else, I want to state that I literally own, and have worn, this tee to multiple wrestling shows.
https://tshirtatlowprice.com/products/wrestling-is-real-god-is-fake-shirt/
Now, I am aware that it's peak 13 year old edge lord shite. I personally find it hilarious, and I've only ever had postive comments on it by wrestling fans at wrestling shows who are in on the joke. I will never, ever, wear it anywhere else because outside of the context of a wrestling show, it's just pure shit and could genuinely offend people.
Wrestling tees have a lot of overlap with band tees, the vast majority are fucking terrible, some are good ironically or OK to wear to shows but no where else, a tiny amount have solid design and can be worn as a regular fit, and a tiny amount of that tiny amount could be considered great design and fully crosses over in to "fashion" being worn by people with no idea of who the band are. .
Tldr, I sorta agree, but you're overthinking it.
Stop trying to do the nasty in the pasty.
I'm not sure where the treasury slush fund accusation comes from?
Morning star being a rag, it's borderline embarrassing at this point.
As you say, the idea that pension funds can somehow become treasury slush is nonsense. What they could very much become though is a very quick way to incease assets under management for the sovereign wealth fund.
Since when are people who facilitate fascism my allies?
I really don't want to know why, or how this even came up, but....what? Why? How? Wat.
I'm not sure what country you're in - in the UK there is a charity called "Citizens Advice" which, as the name suggests, can help you with legal, financial, and housing issues. They aren't a type of benefit, but they know the law and your rights and will give correct advice and provide advocacy and support if required, is there anything equivalent to this where you live?
I will absolutely lose my shit if/when Nixon turns up in North for a few shows.
Excellent, so you are in the market for premium oil jacks, where should we start the bidding?
Oh fuck off.
Does it feel dirty as fuck? Of course it does, but if you genuinely think there is no difference at all in climate outlook between the two then I have a billion oil jacks to sell you.
It might be the lesser of two evils, but every tonne less we emit is one less we need to remove.
Is it everything I wanted? No.
Is it a relief to have a budget that is at least economically literate? Fuck yes.
Do I want more next year? Absolutely.
Wait, do they actually think getting it to summarise the wiki page on the trolley problem is actually going to stop their people mowers mowing down people?
Looks like HHH did indeed learn a lesson from nearly killing BritWres, and that lesson was it being widely successful for him and he should do it again!
This pre-PC positioning is absolutely insane.
It absolutely fucks!
I'm pretty sure it's the first match of Mike D's I've seen and he absolutely blew me away. Myles is also doing a great job as English Randy Orton From Wish, his upside is crazy, amazes me that he's had no US bookings.
People who claim both parties are the shame are just showing their privilege.
It's the same in the UK, do Labour come anywhere close to having the policies I want? No. Are they closer to them than the Tories? Yes.

This match is for NORTH's Ultraviolent Championship, and is from last year's Thunderstruck event, which is the biggest crowd so far with ~700 attendees.
If the venue looks familiar, it's because it's in the Walker Dome, where Impact/TNA held Turning Point last year.
Hulk Hogan may have stopped wrestlers unionising...

NORTH // Kegstacker vs Caleb Valhalla, or a Barhand and a Viking have a meat slapping drinking contest
Self-aware silly wrestling is my favourite type of wrestling, and this was the pre-show match before All Roads Lead North a few months ago.
To paraphrase a poet, you can keep your 5* classics, I just want big meaty men slapping meat, and draining cans.
