Thank God the dogs and cats were safe.

[–] SereneSadie@lemmy.myserv.one 7 points 21 hours ago

Its always projection with regressives.

Where tf did you find this monstrosity?

[–] Someone@lemmy.ca 50 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

It's Pizza the Hutt. For a cheese grater, you're not very up to date on your shredded cheese based characters.

[–] cheese_greater@lemmy.world 25 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Take that back 🔫🤙🫦

Im a cheese greater

[–] cecilkorik@piefed.ca 22 points 1 day ago

You're a cheese not-great-enough if you haven't watched Spaceballs.

[–] dualphasesaber@piefed.social 15 points 1 day ago

That's Pizza the Hut from Space Balls.

Dom DeLuise*

It even says it on the wiki you linked

[–] AbidanYre@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Dom DeLuise gave it a voice, but it was from the mind of Mel Brooks

[–] fartographer@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago

Oh! Yes. I thought you were saying that Mel Brooks was Pizza the Hut. But now I get it.

Q. Where tf did you find this monstrosity
A. Mel Brooks('s mind)

Sorry, I got my Schwartz twisted

[–] Aatube@kbin.melroy.org 7 points 1 day ago

mel brooks is the director and lead writer

Normal people would see a need for mental health care for this individual, instead they traumatized them until they self harmed

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 4 points 21 hours ago

Pretty much this exact thing happened to me.

Being taken without due process can be somewhat traumatising.

“I know Ron’s doing a second one... and probably a couple of more, and you know, at some point they might morph into a system where you’re going to keep it for a long time.”

Talk about burying the lede. Yet another plain-as-day admission by Trump that this is not and was never going to stop at immigrants.

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago

How is the onion even still going with these fucking clowns doing shit for such insane headlines??

I wish. Bush wasn't nearly as corrupt, or as evil.

[–] furzegulo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 27 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Bush is by comparison a straight up Marcus Aurelius to Trump

[–] Boddhisatva@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Hard disagree. Bush was as corrupt and evil, he just wasn't as competent and lacked the full support of the GOP which was somewhat more sane in those day.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Bush was definitely not nearly as evil. Cheney and Rumsfeld, maybe. Bush was a useful idiot.

lacked the full support of the GOP

Yeah, that's not how I remember it.

[–] Boddhisatva@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Bush knew that Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 and invaded anyway because he wanted to finish what daddy started. How many innocents suffered and died because of that decision? He authorized kidnapping people off the street in foreign nations and throwing them in black sites to be tortured without any evidence that they were actually enemies or criminals. He's responsible for enough death and suffering that Trump actually still has some catching up to do, though I concede he is well on his way.

Also, the GOP in the Bush ere was not the rubber stamp it is now. They still pretended to care about what was right and wrong. That is no longer the case.

Stop white-washing Bush and acting like he was a well-meaning, doddering, buffoon. He wasn't.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 14 hours ago

I'm not white washing anything, he was an awful president and is a pretty shitty human. But I don't think he's evil, I think he's just really fucking stupid and easy to manipulate.

[–] Guidy@lemmy.world -1 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Is it time to start using the word “retarded” again?

I used to think I missed the 1980s, but now I’m not so sure.

[–] FriendFatale@leminal.space 3 points 13 hours ago

theyre literally trying to genocide developmentally disabled people. dont make it easier to dehumanize people

[–] HellsBelle@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 day ago

I ... what?????

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 day ago

Did he have his ribs removed (which he also ate)?
