POUR some SUGAR on MEEEEEEEE!

OOH in the name of LOVE

[–] Tigeroovy@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago

Turns out this is just what happens under capitalism eventually.

Give all the money to generation after generation of dumbshit nepo babies and this is what we get.

What a stupid fucking timeline this is.

I hate this timeline so much

Who even knows anymore

[–] OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

This wasn't on my 2026 bingo card.

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Twas on mine! Almost there!

[–] HereIAm@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Now I need to see the rest of the card!

Andrew Callaghan isn't conservative

[–] electric_nan@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah that's some bs lol. I feel like he can be a little too 'centrist' a lot, but def not a conservative. Fwiw I saw him live and he was explicitly calling out right wing/fash "influencers".

I know it isn't the story but how the fuck is Andrew Callaghan a "conservative commentator"?

[–] mbp@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Yeah dude WTF. I had to check if the kid that did All Gas, No Breaks was a maga asshole now.

It seems he is not, just doing the hear out both parts kinda thing. Worth having a whole discussion over the details, really.

But he does have SA allegations so that's not great.

[–] bugieman@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Nah he's a genuinely good, journalist. He may be left-leaning but only in the context of our massively shifted overton window.

[–] OrteilGenou@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

When you hear out both sides in ways that they don't like, then each side refers to you as their slur for the other side.

[–] Glifted@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

I wasn't aware of SA allegations. I thought he was called out for being pushy with someone, apologized, and then went to rehab because he realized he had a drinking problem. I may not know the full story

[–] Soulg@ani.social 4 points 1 week ago

No that's the story.

[–] Kintarian@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Every time I go to fact check this stuff because it has to be a joke it turns out to be true. I think I must be in the upside down.

[–] OrteilGenou@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Unfortunately you're in the timeline where you're a speck on a rock in a cauldron of fire within an interminable void. You know, the only timeline.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

There's no upside in this timeline.

Seems unfair. Two versus one?

I vote for Cornpop to be allowed to fight on Biden's side.

[–] waterSticksToMyBalls@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago (2 children)

2v1 is the only way this fight could be fair. If hunter is ripping lines off a hookers ass he could take the entire family on at once.

[–] _stranger_@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

I want to see him walk on stage, rip off his aviators in a dramatic fashion revealing another pair of aviators underneath, at which point he reaches into his suit jacket to pull out an entire brick of cocaine, which he proceeds to rip in half over his head with his bare hands.

At that point, he would shove his fists into each half of the cocaine brick and begin pummeling the ever living fuck out of both the other ass hats with his newly dusted knuckles.

WTF, does the winner get to be crowned next King President?

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

That would be awesome actually

[–] DupaCycki@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Anything to distract Americans from serious issues. And it somehow works every time...

If they all get to use Crack for the gladiator fight, id watch it.

Rome is back baby.

Otherwise all those nepo babies are useless.

[–] backalleycoyote@lemmy.today 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It’s like Bum Fights but with value. I do hope Hunter has his laptop hidden under the ring and starts going to town with it like a steel chair.

All that once or one at a time. (Bruce Lee quotes from a movie.)

I heard there's some kind of event happening at the white house. Maybe they will be so gracious as to add them their event.

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

No, it was the Waffle House.

I bet it never happens.

[–] thatradomguy@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

They can all afford legit healthcare, so IDGAF. Unless him winning gets Trump out of office and into a jail cell, IDGAF.

An evening spent beating up each other is an evening not beating up on us, so sure.

Don jr, sure, but Eric? Come on now he has the IQ of a turnip. I'm not saying dont do it, but I feel a little bad about it.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

They both have the intellect of a root vegetable. So Jr is a rutabaga, he isn't any more intelligent that that turnip.

And frankly, Hunter is a yam, at best.

He's gotta watchout if they go for his jugular with their bonespurs.

[–] Eternal192@anarchist.nexus 2 points 1 week ago

They can all go to prison for their crimes and they can then have cage matches every day.
