Oh man, someone start spreading fire ants as a cure for something. This administration would be all over it.

[-] DannyBoy@sh.itjust.works 23 points 1 month ago

this administration

Based on the other comment you mean the US government? Do you just assume everyone on the internet is American?

[-] Kepion 34 points 1 month ago

Although I kind of agree with you, I feel like everyone knows when someone refers to this administration as being US in relation to extremely dumb shit at this point

[-] DannyBoy@sh.itjust.works 22 points 1 month ago

It's super annoying when the default country on Lemmy is the USA.

[-] rockerface@lemm.ee 26 points 1 month ago

The default country for anything stupid, yes

[-] MBM@lemmings.world 5 points 1 month ago

There isn't even the "this is a US website" excuse anymore, like on Reddit

[-] fyzzlefry@retrolemmy.com 10 points 1 month ago

Do you know a dumber one?

[-] VoteNixon2016 3 points 1 month ago

Genuine question, do other countries refer to their current government as "this administration" or "the [leader] administration"?

In my exposure to non-US political discussions, there seems to be more reference to the majority parties or coalitions, where that's more important to politics than it is in the US with our far-too-powerful executive branch

Fire ant venom boosts testosterone levels when applied to the scrotum, according to my dog

What administration?

"Without medication" while describing medication

anting*, not ant-eating

Get ready for RKF JR to introduce this as a new health policy in 3.. 2..

Instructions unclear, dick stuck in an ant hill

Happy Bird Day!

This is super cool and I'd definitely tuck it away for later use if I weren't allergic to fire ant venom.

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 month ago

i don't think fire ants piss acid as a form of defense? the post is about ants that spray formic acid at scary things, not being stung.

[-] ArsonButCute@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

Ah fuck. My bad
