But “basket of deplorables” was beyond the pale. Not to mention “smokey eye.”

Edit: What the fuck?

And in delivering that last bit about the tampons, it should be noted that Trump instructed the crowd to have any children in the room cover their ears, as to not be exposed to the word “tampon.”

Weird is just the best adjective. It really is.

He’s got the same logic as my sister did when she was 13 and a super sheltered Christian who still fully believed the mythology.

She went to our mother to try and get me to stop watching a cartoon because it very lightly touched on the fact that women have menstrual cycles. And by that I mean “a girl started her period and had to deal with that for about five minutes” in an episode of braceface

I never once got any sort of “coming of age” talk from either parent, but by then I already knew something happened every month that cause women pain and bleeding in their stomach and pants, respectively, and no idea why. The fact that they used tampons and pads seemed logical to me, as they absorb things. Like putting a bandaid on a cut.

My tiny child mind was not broken by these things.

By your logic your tiny child mind was not broken. By their logic you have been forever scarred by this knowledge as if you had eaten from the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

Reminds me of Nadsat from the movie, A Clockwork Orange. Haven’t read the novel yet.

There’s a lot more in the novel that isn’t in the film.

That said, the copy that Kubrick used to adapt into the film did not have the final chapter of the novel (it was an edited down American version) and it is such a better ending than the book.

The book is amazing.

A_Random_Idiot , in MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell tears into his own network for airing Trump press conference without fact-check

His rant legitimizes everything I’ve said since 2016.

Broadcast Media is complicit in the right, and in Trump.

During the election they gave him tens of millions of dollars of free coverage/advertising that no other candidate got.

They have always treated him with soft hands, never pushing or fact checking like they would anyone else.

Miss democratic events to attend Trumps bullshit, then claim democrats don’t hold enough events… That they actively don’t cover and report on.

It has a vested financial interest in the right wing, and in Trumps presidency, because they constantly create controversy which drives viewership.

How many times did you hear about what Biden had done outside of Republican false hysteria? About his policies? About the good his policies could do, or did do, for the American people? About the support his policies, and he himself had? I bet you dont even need a full hand to count the times.

How many times has Trump been in the news? Republicans? How many times do they just let them come on, spout their raw, bullshit propaganda and lies completely unchallenged? Treating them like their disgusting, immoral bullshit is just as valid and just as important as any actual crisis facing the actual, everyday American public? Almost every time they are on Camera.

Broadcast media in America has betrayed the people, betrayed the country, and betrayed their duty to their journalistic ethics. And for what? Ratings. Ratings. Ratings and corporate access/power. The journalists on the street, and in the studios, Sold their integrity for the benefit of the powers above them rather than investigating it and revealing it.

Trump threatening to sue? Must be a day that ends in Y.

otp , (edited )

Well, it’s definitely not Christmas!

EDIT: Typo

Samvega ,

No, because we replaced Christmas with The Holiday Season.

otp ,

That’s a whole lot of days. It starts in late October and ends in January-ish. That’s a lot of days where Trump doesn’t threaten to sue!

Of course not. Lemmy struggles with sarcasm it seems.

Not any different from, cool, hot, or ass.

Annoyed_Crabby ,

Well it’s different from cool, hot, or ass because skibidi and gyatt isn’t a real word. I never heard a new word that got so many meaning shoved into them so fast it become meaningless.

lemmyng ,
@lemmyng@lemmy.ca avatar

skibidi and gyatt isn’t a real word

Every word that we use wasn’t a real word until it started getting used. Rejecting new words is a prescriptivist fallacy. If anything this is an exciting time, because we get to study accelerated language changes.

Annoyed_Crabby ,

Rejecting new words

That wasn’t my intention at all lol, please reread what i wrote.
