You know, I think that's the most I've ever seen Trump lift.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

those boxes may be empty for all we know

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

Still probably more than he's ever lifted.

That bottle of water was heavy, though!

Bad workplace providing a pizza party instead of raises.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Don't worry, at least there are two pizzas for 50 people!

Ok but like low key, I'll smash some rootbeer float.

How do you tolerate so much acid and sugar running across your tender mucosae?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

It never occurred to me that root beer is acidic

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

I've done worse to it...

Showing up with pizza and pop

Soda wars.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago

The map is waaaay more complicated than that!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

I'm from a soda state, but I used pop with pizza simply for the alliteration :^)

Reject local names. Embrace "carbonated beverage". All will unite under the technically correct name.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Spicy brown sugar water.

That 14 year old with a baby.

hey it's probably her brother.

but also probably her son too

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Is that cola and whipped cream?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

It's an a&w root beer float, just a scoop of vanilla in root beer.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Probably a root beer float, so ice cream.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'm not American, what ice cream flavor do you put in?

Best we can do is diet mountain dew and awkwardly obtained 24 counts of donuts

To be fair, Kamala Harris is also opposed to universal healthcare. I'm not sure what her positions on the other topics are but likely better than Trump's at least.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Breads and circuses. Breads and circuses...

I'm surprised he splurged on the green lantern and didn't pick up some hot 'n ready.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

He’s not paying. He’s never paying.

Of course MAGA isn't going to provide that stuff, but neither are the fucking democrats. They haven't done it yet, and they won't fucking do it in the future either. Take the state I live in, for example (California). Longtime Dem majority governance. Yes, it's better in a lot of ways than many states, but we've got some fucked up problems that are getting worse. Cost of living is skyrocketing with no credible plans to address that. On a related note, our 'uber-liberal' governor Newsom wasted zero time in seizing on the recent SCOTUS ruling to (further) criminalize homelessness. He has decreed that any cities or counties who don't clear out homeless encampments will lose state funding. The California university system was once the best value in the country, and fostered a politically engaged student body. Now the costs keep rising and student protests are met with swift police violence.
