Here I am “supporting the local restaurant” but already am sitting at -20 points in an hour for stating my experiences.

On reddit there are more posts I wouldn’t have seen otherwise, and more opinions and people to talk with. There aren’t dozens or hundreds of people here discussing very niche hobbies, places, or events on an hourly or daily basis like there are on reddit. I buy the hamburger at the local restaurant when I can, but when I need a graphics card delivered next day, my mom-and-pop local computer store that sells to senior citizens has never even heard of a 5090.

Or illegally collude like they did to Bernie.

Some of the sprites look so identical that I cannot even point out a difference without going back to the original game to look.

Disagree, as somebody that started on reddit 15 years ago who now browses Lemmy daily, I still read and post there more because there is more content and discussion.

People that say otherwise are living in a Lemmy or bluesky bubble

I do not think any of the 3 that I mentioned are likely. But that is the world view the parent comment assumes, and my comment is just continuing his assumption but showing why his extrapolations are incorrect

3 terms is 12 years. 2+4+4 is not 12

This is a situation that implies he is either impeached , resigned, or dead, so I’m not sure what his interpretation has to do with this conversation

He would at most get 2.49999 terms. You have not read the 22nd amendment. You can’t get 3 terms aside from repeatedly being elected as VP and the primary president losing office 4+ times.

That’s not merch, that’s the Veil of Veronica. Very significant catholic story/artifact. The story is that when she wiped the blood and sweat off of Jesus his face appeared on the cloth. You’ll find depictions of this in most old catholic churches and many paintings
