During Trump’s first term I used to say a pet rock would make a better president. Even truer now.

Smarter than me, I missed the “a”, just saw state and I’m all like… Jate?

Nah, if it was just referencing two things the headline wouldn’t need another comma before the “and”. It’s clearly three separate topics.

Nonono, you don’t understand. Hitler killed all the undesirables he was able to like this, but Netanyahu killed all the undesirables he was able to like this, duh!

It isn’t nonsensical tho, it’s science. The thing about brains, that is.

Spidey’s gotta understand… it was only 99 cents!

The meme says those Carboniferous ferns are extinct and currently alive ferns are from the Cretaceous.

Edit: not all are extinct, just almost all… again, according to the meme, IANAB

Reading this on my 2021 G Stylus. Husband keeps trying to convince me to get a newer phone. But I haven’t had any problems with this one yet!

But we’ve just been playing all summer.

My mastodon was down as well… I went to c.im to see what folks were saying about Lemmy being down and I got the same stupid cloud flare page.

Oops… places like southern Italy and Germany.

Everybody getting mad at OP, but I find the post reasonably accurate. Lived here all my life except a few years in Colorado around 1982-85 or so. I’ve lived in most of the circled states. These people are Trump lovers and Christians… for the most part. I raised a mid-sized family here and we’re all atheist Trump haters (that vote!), so I am more than aware #NotAllSoutherners!

But I was referring to what’s in their heart, not how polite they are when I was referring to “the worst people”. It shows up when we vote.

Oh, I know why it’s so bad down here. I was just sort of wondering why places like Italy and Germany (and some others too, I forget tho) also have folks that are more rightwing, poorer, and less educated than those up north.

Thank you. I live here and the part that offends me is he called it the southern United States, like the southern United States doesn’t go all the way to the Pacific Ocean.

Call it the southeast, call it the deep south, hell even just call it the south. But the southern United States ain’t what’s circled there.

Also, why does The South have the worst people in so many countries?

Yes, but also… After decades of local police doing this, it’s gone national.

You posted this a few seconds before I read it, which means Ding Dong the Dick is Dead likely was playing in both our heads at the same time! I wish it was possible to know many people heard (or sang!) that song just now.

Ain’t nobody got time for that.

Sometimes something sticks out, like a Chekhov’s gun, and you’re just waiting for it to make it’s way back into the story. Not all of the small details, obviously. But you can pick up some things on a single read through that you expect to come back into play… even if you have a horrible memory.

Neoliberalism is how we got to what is happening right now.

I really just meant the comment didn’t seem stupid. I should have put quotes around personal attack.
