abrake@lemmy.worldto Funny: Home of the Haha@lemmy.world•This goes all the way to the top8·2 months agoYou’re right but I think that most of those people are worried about consuming micro plastics and are less concerned about the effects on the environment. So most people aren’t munching on their tires or Lululemons ^unless you’re into that sort of thing…^
Thanks! I’d say it was about 95% luck though ;)
Guaranteed to have a rip-roaring time!
OP’s dad must be Pentheus

Donald Trump was the president of Puerto Rico in 2017, since it is an American territory. Some people in MAGA didn’t realize this. OP was playing on this fact to say that Donald Trump was a fuck up.
I hope they change Say’s Phoebe just because
it’s annoying to say,no one understands when you say its name, its name easily leads to confusion.
abrake@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK Tempur Mattresses fail quickly and the warranty is fake962·3 months agoSince no one has posted this yet so far, the Mattress Underground is the place to go for high-quality information about mattresses.
You’ll learn far more than you’d ever want to know about mattresses. And you’ll probably end up paying more too if you buy from one of the recommended retailers. But if quality is your main concern, then this is how you figure out what’s real and what’s not.
Yup, Omarosa Manigualt-Newman. She had her own roller coaster ride with Trump since 2016. Here’s a few excerpts from her Wikipedia page:
In December 2016, Newman was announced as one of nine additional members to Trump’s presidential transition team. Unlike the rest of President Trump’s inner circle appointments, Omarosa didn’t have any roots in the Republican party or otherwise conservative or right wing activism.
On January 3, 2017, it was reported that Newman would join Trump’s White House staff, focusing on public engagement. Her specific title was made public the next day as assistant to the President and director of communications for the Office of Public Liaison.
On December 13, 2017, the White House announced Newman’s resignation, effective January 20, 2018… CNN White House correspondent April Ryan reported that White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly fired Newman, but she disputed the account, stating that she resigned. But Newman had secretly taped her firing, and gave the tape to Chuck Todd to play on his NBC program Meet The Press on August 12, 2018.
Newman wrote a book deeply critical of Trump titled Unhinged, which went on sale on August 14, 2018, in which she labels Trump a racist, and states that witnesses have confirmed the existence of tapes of Trump repeatedly using the word “n*****” during the filming of The Apprentice.

This is only scratching the surface of the weirdness of semen retention advocates. Throwback to the Canadian political candidate who advocated for this a few years ago:
“Every time you’re tempted to ejaculate, every time you’re tempted to go watch porn… You are essentially in the fight for your life. You’re fighting for your very lifeforce. Nature’s forgiving, and because of nature’s merciful nature, we’ve taken advantage of that nature and now we’re depleting,” argues Nakula. “Right now the world needs men. Men with full balls,” said the PPC candidate in a YouTube video.
“Breathe deeply into your balls," he wrote on Instagram. “Imagine your testicles expanding like lungs. When you exhale, imagine your testicles deflating like your lungs would”. “Most men never breathe into their balls consciously,” he added.

This comment could have been posted word-for-word in February/March 2020 and it would have had the exact same meaning. Even if Trump completely blunders this conflict it will ultimately be someone else’s mess to clean up.
