I’ve begun asking, “Did you just make that up” before I share anything. A fair amount of the time it’s like: “You’re right to be skeptical, this doesn’t seem correct. Let’s reevaluate.” Or whatever.

What exactly does OP want?
Bernie to pull out an automatic weapon or something? He’s an elderly politician. He’s also one of the only morally good politicians we have at this point in history.
tory@lemmy.worldto Memes@lemmy.ml•"Violence is never the answer" unless it is white people doing itEnglish59·2 months agoIsrael has controlled the USG for decades now. We support Israel because they have been intricately and impressively spying on us since at least the 1980s and bought and paid for most of our politicians. It’s just that simple, they own our politicians, and therefore: when they do heinous evil, our politicians look away.
Ukraine was invaded by our largest rival on the world stage as a power grab, and NATO decided to help.
The two situations are not comparable in the slightest.
Two dishwashers, take the clean dishes out of one and when done put them into the other.
In perfect balance, as all things should be.
It’s just a cacophony of male birds literally shouting it over each other all day from sunrise to sunset.
Nature is so beautiful 😍

Okay now, if someone could please help the honorable gentleman from Kentucky with his diaper… thank you!

It’s not even the same as caffeine, my dude.

tory@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Marijuana meets criteria for reclassification as lower-risk drug, FDA scientific review findsEnglish1·1 year agoWow, you remember vivid dreams. That’s clearly withdrawl.
…In the most technical sense, only. You’re technically correct, the best form of correct. Which is pretty much the definition of pedantry.
tory@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Marijuana meets criteria for reclassification as lower-risk drug, FDA scientific review findsEnglish64·1 year agoThat’s about it. I am getting a good amount of pushback from people who very much like the idea that being able to dream again and not being high are withdrawl.
And sure, they’re all technically correct in the most pedantic way.

tory@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Dems rip Biden for launching Houthi strikes without congressional approvalEnglish8·1 year agoThe legislative branch has been busted for so long that they literally ceded power to go to war to the executive for the good of the nation. Y’all can feel free to undo that at any time once you’re not completely broken.
tory@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Marijuana meets criteria for reclassification as lower-risk drug, FDA scientific review findsEnglish1515·1 year agoThis article seems to imply that stopping heavy marijuana use can lead to withdrawal symptoms.
Yeah, I’m calling bullshit on that.
tory@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Americans living in their cars are finding refuge in ‘safe parking lots’English13·1 year agoNever was a fan of blaming the entire dumpster fire on the leader of the executive branch any more than I believe we should blame that leader for things like gas prices.
What exactly do we expect the leader of the executive branch to do when the leadership of the judicial branch invalidates a law written by the legislative branch many years ago when it was able to agree on such things.
How much power are we willing to cede to a single person (the president) as a result of our legislative branch being completely unable to function? The legislative branch creates laws, the judicial branch rules on if those laws are constitutional and the executive has a veto and controls the armed forces and foreign policy (among honestly, maybe too many other things). I feel like rewatching schoolhouse rock might be fun. Let’s do that, huh?

tory@lemmy.worldto Patient Gamers@sh.itjust.works•What games can you not get into because they feel too outdated?English14·1 year agoLol, who is this comment for?
Me: I don’t like the level up system of an ancient RPG because I invariably feel drawn to minmax based on the design. It just sucks the fun out of the game for me every time I try.
You: Maybe relax and pretend not to have that issue.
Back up, he’s a hero.
tory@lemmy.worldto Patient Gamers@sh.itjust.works•What games can you not get into because they feel too outdated?English52·1 year agoMy issue with Morrowind is the level up system where you gotta metagame it to get +5s for 3 stats per level if you want to be most efficient. And you gotta max endurance ASAP to gain the maximum potential health by end game. I simply can not handle it. It sucks the fun right out of the game for me.
tory@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Colorado GOP Threatens to Go Rogue If Trump Decision StandsEnglish5·1 year agoYeah, it’s more than just a social club electing a leader, though. It’s quite literally our nation sorting out our presidential elections. I think some legal boundaries outside the norm are in order for these two particular “clubs.”
You go ahead and make Trump the leader of your rotary club, though.

What do you want, OP? Like honestly, who’s your example of a good politician if Bernie isn’t good enough for you? I’m legitimately curious.
