Yes, this is an old tweet referring to past circumstances, but still.
IT WOULD TAKE TOO LONG TO LIST THEM ALL.
THANK YOU.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.
(God, I wanna barf just quoting that shit)
The period of occupation in WWII in Iceland is actually called The Situation
New Jersey had a similar period in time
And it was equally dark and scary.
A kind of dark that was halfway to blackface.
ughyurs in china call it "the situation" too.
Welp.
The Circumstances implies we found ourselves here. The Consequences would be more appropriate, as we placed ourselves in this position.
The Big Find Out
The consequences makes it sound too passive idk. We should keep searching for a name.
The Gangstering would be more accurate. As in effect, and in reality, our government has been seized by gangsters.
And for what? What is anyone gaining here?
...because of the implications...
Great band name though...
Too bad they were unforseen
Many foresaw these circumstances just fine.
We don't talk about the Event
Stay indoors.
That's actually a good idea, reminds me of the Troubles in Norther Ireland. Wouldn't be surprised if terrorism would be on the rise, especially after the dismantling of USAID.
There was a MeidasTouch Video a week ago which touched on the subject, where the US Military admitted that they lost a lot of access to intel in Africa, and what little intel they got points into the direction that paramilitaries and terrorist groups are thriving and building up large amounts of ressources.
Sometimes powered by Russia. Or, more peacefully, by China.
the Troubles
I'm always a little surprised that's a 20th century term. It sounds medieval.
Things happened.
Big if true
Occurances occurred
Futurama named it perfectly: the Stupid Ages.
The Toddler Troubles
The trump circumstances era
The Trumpbles
To the tune of Pomp and Circumstance, Trump and Circumstances
I remember hearing a NPR podcast episode about how they call it "The thing" in Venezuela so if the police never know if people are talking about the kidnaping or the price of bread.
The incident
Great album
Hello, good evening, and remain indoors!
Mysterious Benedict Society: "The Emergency"
"The Troubles" is too on the nose
“The Troubles” has already been taken.
I always wondered in school why the IRA were the " bad guys". I think everyone else thought IRA was a type of beer.
I was surprised to learn that a black and tan wasn't the best name for a drink. Like Irish car bomb seems pretty obvious but more people are less familiar with black and tan.
The MAGA Turmoil, aka The Idiocy.
Circumstances, such a vague word. Like consequences.
