Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

This is funny because an "elder statesperson" is valuable because they've been in the room for allllll the dirt, over decades. They are a walking blackmail bomb and are tolerated because they can call in "favors" when compromise is really really needed.
Edit whoever downvoted this, care to comment? If you think this was a "yay pelosi" comment you're wrong.
Hi. Not the downvoter, but I'll weigh in. I get single downvotes on a lot of my comments. Comments that I can't see a single reason TO downvote. One time somebody was a single downvote to me say "what?" after a guy went on a long long rant that didn't say anything of value.
The point is, on Lemmy, I'm convinced there's a single guy, who just goes around downvoting EVERYTHING. Because I notice the trend isn't just MY posts. It's all over Lemmy.
So somewhere, out there in the world, is one guy, in what I assume is a dirty trailer, just downvoting everything, because he's miserable.
Haha love it. It must be the ass pennies guy
walks up, pays with card, leaves as he has a meltdown while I'm confused what's wrong with him
