It has been so great to see how horrible Vance is as a VP pick. I would hazard a guess that nobody else would say yes to Trump after he was willing to sacrifice Pence.

Damnit, that's a WAY better title! I knew there were some quality opportunities

Well done

[–] Minarble@aussie.zone 4 points 1 month ago

Well thank you but it’s always easier to riff on an idea than generate the first one!

[–] I_am_10_squirrels@beehaw.org 9 points 1 month ago

That works on at least two levels

He left the tweet up. It is still there (from February 17th). Just...wow

Man, imagine being a powerless Homelander and choosing The Deep as your preferred sidekick.

[–] dylanmorgan 4 points 1 month ago

Well, Blanc White won’t do it now.

Wow.

I am not one to kink shame, but dude, c'mon. THIS and Trump are the best the Republican Party could do? Out of 330,000,000 people?

It just goes to show that Republicans are monumental pieces of shit.

The problem, according to the commenters, is that the words "woman" and "dolphin" were highlighted in the image, suggesting that whoever took the screenshot apparently searched for those exact terms.

Seems like a nothing burger blown out of proportion by the press. Stop upvoting garbage pls

[–] Vodulas@beehaw.org 25 points 1 month ago (1 children)

But it is a funny nothing burger that shows how out of touch Vance is

[–] BlackLaZoR@kbin.run 7 points 1 month ago

More like, it shows that media will leech into anything.

[–] The_Che_Banana@beehaw.org 7 points 1 month ago

You can't tell me what to or not to upvote. Shits funny...upvote.

I'd disagree

It really just demonstrates how cringe republicans are.. And it's important to highlight just how cringe these people are.

I have lots of weird friends (and I'm probably weird myself). I actually prefer to hang with weird people.

But it's important to highlight just how contradictory the anti-porn conservative party acts. It's not weird, its just cringe. And its even worse because they're trying to define what normal is and demanding people follow it

[–] LukeZaz@beehaw.org 6 points 1 month ago

With you here. The title made it sound like a lot more than it actually was.

"Damn you, Internet, for showing people things they search for," former journalist Morten Øverbye wrote in response.

Dudes the first millennial candidate and his opsec is worse than a 90 year old grandparent. Here's hoping Harris' vp is a millennial to save some dignity for the generation, historically speaking.

[–] BurningRiver@beehaw.org 7 points 1 month ago

JD Vance is a Peter Thiel sock puppet.

So the bestiality guy is the least sexually deviant person on the ticket. Got it.

[–] theangriestbird@beehaw.org 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

that certainly is a raw story (.com)

[–] kbin_space_program@kbin.run 10 points 1 month ago

Man, and we all thought his whole thing over couches was bad.

[–] collapse_already@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 month ago

Man, if we could only find a video of a dolphin doing a couch. Did I just rule 34 that into existence?

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 1 month ago

Margie would do it. But she wants to be in the spotlight too much, so he'd never ask her.

[–] jarfil@beehaw.org 2 points 1 month ago

Not to defend the guy... but most millennials might be familiar with the Goatse website, which in its heyday used to link to Lemon Party and... Dolphinse.

Next he might repost Tub Whale.

Deep is that you?
