Blows my mind that she was still making important decisions for this country two decades after the rest of us are told we're too old to work.

Well this is how I just found out she actually died.

There's something beautiful in that. And memes are likely a more trustworthy source of info than most websites these days.

I'm sure a lot of propoganda/misinformation is spread through memes as well though.

The worst thing they do is trick hordes of people into thinking they're informed because they read a headline posted with a reaction image and an agenda.

Wow I didn't even believe you because it's the third block down on the news site I checked. It's just so expected that it's not news...

Chances she’ll be placed by another out of touch geriatric millionaire?

Given that Katie Porter and Adam Schiff are running for the seat, 0%.

Well, unless Newsom somehow appoints a geriatric Interim senator.

Think about it - this isn't like, "oh I can't believe the news she died!" This is straight up: "yep, died of old age, totally expected." She was on the way out for a long time and everyone who supported her being there knew she couldn't fulfill her job requirements yet let her stay in office for political reasons. Which doesn't make sense to me either: her seat wasn't going to be filled by a Republican.

Yeah but do you know how long it takes to animate another corpse? Especially when you have a perfectly malleable one at home. It's just not practical for the modern political necromancer.

Boomers will never vote for anyone younger because they hate you so expect another 161 year old.

Also LOL this is how I found out.

Hey what is this picture anyways ive been seeing it lately

Serious answer, "remains of an extraterrestrial" that were shown to the Mexican Government. Not even a good scam attempt.

Shell keep voting in San Francisco for the next 20 years

I’m sorry you’re getting downvoted in a shitpost sub. Some people who can’t love themselves try their best to make sure others share in their pain. It’s ok. I found your joke lighthearted and amusing, and my day is better for it. I hope you have a great day, too. Do we ever stop to think about how today is one out of a limited amount we will live? Surely, under such circumstances, I want my brothers and sisters to experience as little pain as possible. It seems only right. Sometimes that amounts to tough lessons, but what use is a chide without a correction? It comes down to indecency - a decent person passes negative judgements in a constructive, not a dismissive way. But, unfortunately, your fellow humans are not always so enlightened. What then? Well, I suppose we must carry their pain for them, along with our own, and we must resist the temptation to pass our pain off on others. Over time, this builds character - and when you can recognize quality character in others, you can form alliances and work together to teach others to likewise build character. It becomes a rather rewarding process, over time. Cheers my friend. Let us join our good will together, and together be a force for kinship, love, empathy, and stoutheartedness in this fragile, broken, but beautiful world. Peace my friend - I love you when even no one else will. Don’t ever forget that! And think of my from time to time, my friend!

Keep going

I am become taxi!

I’m sorry you are getting downvoted in a shitpost sub. Some people are just kinky mammajammas with a high propensity for actively expressing angst in an anonymous online forum. Maybe this will cheer you up, mate, maybe these downvotes are really upvotes from down under (or up over!). You never know. The thing about cultures is, it’s difficult to clearly understand a particular social totem, such as a typical behavior for a certain role in any given group, however, the sheer juxtaposital quality of modern life demands we make decisions regarding how we treat the inevitable multicultural conflict that will arise. The best we can to is jerk ourselves off, if no one else will. Cheers mate, let’s jerk ourselves off together, and together do our part to cover the world in sticky, sticky love.
