This is the absolute ONLY case where it's acceptable to call a pizza a pie. That being said, well done to the memesmith ๐

Well, fuck.
Kidding aside, !upliftingnews@lemmy.world probably has what you're looking for
don't mean just Gen-Z and maybe Millenials, I mean people your age even
They said they're 36. That's millenial. At 41, I'm what Iliza Schlesinger coined an Elder Millennial (a little under two months older than Iliza herself).
Great comment otherwise, though, and I sincerely hope you find your coping method(s)!
Solution: put neither cheese nor lettuce on top. Don't ask me what SHOULD be on top though, I don't have my masters in taco engineering..yet.
In his defense, he was pretty distraught when Dungeons & Dragons all but scuppered their succesful adaptation of his life's work in favor of their autobiographical movie..
Right, of course! It's been too long since I last read the A Song of Ice and Fire series!
Their chief weapon is fear. Fear and cannibalism.
Same, but I'm at my yearly health check-up.
What's so controversial about Gandalf's horse Shadowfax? Did he not in fact show us the meaning of haste?
I love that 29% of the respondents would rather people die than their Amazon package be delayed ๐
Calling Biden "corrupt right wing reactionary" is untrue.
He was known as The Senator From MBNA for shamelessly acting as if he was working for the then second largest credit card company in the country rather than the US people.
He championed the pro-corporate bankruptcy reform that was so anti-consumer that it inspired Elizabeth Warren to advocate for a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to shield consumers from similarly predatory practices by the rich and powerful.
He's said that "of course" he'd be more likely to agree to talk to someone if they first donated a lot of money to his campaign.
He's repeatedly championed cutting medicare and medicaid.
He initially opposed desegregation bussing, saying he didn't want his kids to "grow up in a racial jungle"
He's bragged about his close cooperation with such segregationists as racism end boss Strom Thurmond.
He has said that he would veto Medicare For All if congress passed a bill allowing any version of it.
He was the only 2020 Dem primary candidate that categorically ruled out decriminalization of the use and possession of cannabis.
He is one of the staunchest international supporters of a fascist government currently engaged in a horrendous genocide because "they've always been our allies, so we need to support them no matter what"
He used to brag that nobody in Washington went to more of the events of that fascist government's lobbying arm, AIPAC.
If that doesn't "paint the picture of" a corrupt right wing reactionary to you, that's not because he isn't one.
I just think that accusation is inflammatory and baseless
Well you're half right. It IS inflammatory. Unpopular truths tend to be.
It would be more helpful to use accurate descriptors.
Those are 100% accurate descriptors. They don't encompass ALL of what he is, but corrupt, right wing and reactionary is objectively three things that he is.
asked for the DEA to review a proposal to reschedule marijuana
A proposal that concluded with no qualifications that rescheduling would be the only defensible course of action. Nothing to review unless he disagrees and wants the war on drugs people to justify it for him.
acquitted existing inmates on marijuana charges
That's prescribing an aspirin for a migraine while you have but refuse to use the cure for the underlying disease.
forgiven as much student loan debt as he is able without intervention from Congress.
Categorically untrue. It's within the constitutional powers of his secretary of education to cancel literally all of it, which he would have done had Biden asked.
Biden knew that he'd get pushback from the GOP no matter how much or how little was forgiven and chose small amounts that he still means tested to death, like Dem leadership always do when they do anything that helps regular people more than their owner donors.
To reiterate: yes, he's objectively corrupt. Yes he's objectively right wing, and yes, he's objectively reactionary.
