I'm not sure you could have made this up.

Yesterday I posted a bit of satire written by a remarkably prescient lady in Massachusetts.

www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/aug/17/donald-trump-greenland-purchase-denmark

Which was written as a response from a tweet from Trump about considering it, in the way he does.

(Now the Graun appears to have pulled this piece of satire and purged it from its site. What goes on here? [edit] And now it's back. Weird, eh?)

Today we get this:

www.theguardian.com/world/2019/aug/18/trump-considering-buying-greenland

It is now evident that some sort of satire/reality accelerator loop has been imposed on us. If this is one giant simulacrum the folk running it have some issues they need to sort out; it's a bit of a shame they have to use us to do so though. Oh to be a mouse in a different maze, hey?
