Every year I post a screenshot of my aunt's rant about everyone dying from the covid vaccine in 3 years.

Every year people tell me that's not polite, and every year I reply that admitting you were wrong is free.

being wrong in ways that kill people, naturally, is polite

I like to repost my mother-in-law's posts about how she 100% guaranteed Russia wouldn't invade Ukraine. (From 3 months before the start of the Ukraine war.)

[-] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 22 points 3 weeks ago

Ouch, I said that too. I honestly thought Putin wouldn't be that stupid, because the guerilla war that followed the occupation would be insanely costly.

But I'll admit I was wrong.

[-] SkyeStarfall@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 3 weeks ago

To be fair, the guerrilla war that followed the occupation is, indeed, very costly

[-] Danquebec@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 weeks ago

Yea, we thought it wouldn't happen because of all the bad things that would happen to Russia as a result.

And all those bad things happened, and more.

But we forgot that when it's about a dictator's grip on power being on the line, none of that matters. It's all about the dictator's grip on power.

And Putin is indeed an idiot who’s allowed his ego to blind him

Is your aunt dead or does she get to live with the shame and ridicule? If she is dead, then this a definitely a way harder flex than if she isn't.

I deleted my Facebook because I would be going scorched Earth on everyone, mostly family, in my friends list. I don't associate with most of them IRL, but at least I haven't put in writing my true feeling about them and people that think like them. My thoughts are abundantly clear on Lemmy behind the veil of anonymity.

Oh no, she's alive. She occasionally posts weird US political shit while living in the UK..

Plus "bassturd" is awesome

I wonder what it's like compared to a treble turd

[-] BassTurd@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

A couple octives lower, less strings, but still poop.

[-] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

Mmm, I need those strings though. It's like flossing for the other end.

[-] BassTurd@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Mine are thicker with deeper ridges for max floss.
