Mfs will really still hold on to power while stricken with The Affliction
somebody competent should make this an emote
burgerreichers used to make fun of how geriatric and out of touch the soviet politburo were
those guys were in their fuckin’ 60s
It’s not even that Americans in general used to make fun of that. It’s these actual individual people that used to make fun of that, because they were around to do that during the 70s. And the funniest thing is they used to have a point. The Soviet Union really did have a problem with aging politicians and it wasn’t healthy for the country. Good job noticing that before I was born, guy who is still a senator half a century later!
Always have to mention it when this gets brought up: a huge part of why Soviet leadership was so old by then is that a huge portion of the following generation of potential Soviet leaders were specifically targeted by the Nazi invaders during WW2. So there was a damn good reason the Soviet leadership was old by that point. The same is definitely not true about the current us leaders obviously
Soviet people thought late Brezhnev was a mentally cooked geriatic fossil. He died at 75. Both candidates before Harris stepped in were even older than that. That’s something deeply unserious.
uhh actually I’m putzing around in parliament at 300k€ / year with 8 state sponsored caretakers at the age of 75 to vote to nuke algeria so I don’t see why roofers should be allowed to retire at 60
ALS for those wondering.
Lou “The Assassin” Gehrig strikes again
- it’s uncanny
how the fuck am i supposed to keep track of material reality with shit like this regularly happening?!
The multiverses are colliding.
possibly, but i think the “mayans were right” and the world ended in 2012, and what we’re experiencing since then is actually the last, infinitely extenuated scream of the universe. from the inside, it looks like an infinite amount of increasingly incoherent nonsense, from the outside it’s less than a blink of an eye.
tbf to the Mayans, 2012 was just the end of a long count cycle and marking the fact that we’re officially outliving the world that was created before the current one. So maybe the deities forgot to show up to pull the plug this time and instead we get to see the stage in the world lifecycle that convinced them that the last one needed to go.
RL mimics the plot of No Man’s Sky, interesting
Unrelated to the content, but I really hate relative timestamps. This screenshot could have the information in it when that young US politian died. But more and more sites only display relative time, which fucking sucks. I can do the math myself when I want to know how long ago something happened, just show the absolute time, It’s much more informative.
Average western politician
Sacrebleu! He has succumbed to le grippe
Do you think we can get him to run for Senate?
