Context for the 2nd bullet point is that he claimed he "wasn't close to 80" when he's 78 and he said "Energy is so big. It's so like amorphous. It's all over the place. If you make donuts, it's a stove"

He doesn’t look good. Had someone in Cardiology yesterday, out of nowhere, shoot a frown at me and whisper, what do you think about the way trump is looking?

Like if you lifted his pants legs, my 7 is there’s bilateral pitting edema under there. Kind of like watching Nimoy in those final roles, seeing the COPD across that barrel chest, and wondering how far out of frame the oxygen tank actually is. It’s morbid to some, I’m sure, and that’s fair, but I am worried.

I’m convinced that the makeup is the same, he’s just become that much paler beneath the makeup.

but I am worried.

About what? An open and unashamed fascist dying in old age??

Oh, no, the unimaginable tragedy!!!11 🙄

At base I’m not happy about anyone’s medical misfortunes, self inflicted or otherwise.

You could also read it as his health is worrisome. You could also read it as his base’s reaction would be worrisome.

Don’t assume puppies and rainbows. Remember Scalia.

I would be worried about a more competent and less blatant fascist taking his place

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

That's a definite worry, but there is no one that could replace him that I can tell, right now. He is a complete fascist, evil bastard, but he knows how to charm his people. The other fascists that currently have power don't know how (thankfully).

Trump dying now would be an unthinkable tragedy. He would forever be a martyr and we would never be rid of MAGA. FFS, there would be Trump statues everywhere. Oh, and think about all the conspiracies involving liberals killing him.

He has to live through this election and lose ignominiously. Then he has my permission to die.

my 7 is there’s

Is this a phrase I should know or a typo?

What's in the box?

I think they were trying to hit a predicted word (likely "bet") above the "7" on their keyboard.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Woah. Do people actually use the predictive text suggestions when typing?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

I do if it's the right work, or I've misspelled it, it's easier to hit that than edit.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Yes I do but I'm going back in to work tomorrow morning so I'm not going for it until tomorrow and then I can get the joke

*Brought to you by predictive text, starting with yes.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

No. I talk with that phrase, refer to the 7 of a situation.

Roll dice and place a bet. Highest probability roll is what?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 18 hours ago

I understand now, but this is the first and only time I've ever heard it. I wouldn't expect most people to catch your meaning.
