2026 will have to do as my year simply because 2027 will surely be worse.
I think we learned our lesson, because we saw all the bad shit that happens lmao
No body under 40 expect a good year anymore
Yeah. Over 40 here. Still pretty sure the light at the end of the tunnel is a train. Or a fire. Something like that.
No kidding. I'm in my late 30s, and for awhile I would tell myself that this would finally be the year that I finally make enough money to get my shit together and be a real adult, with a wife & kids, three cars, investments & money in my savings account.
Gave up on that dream by age 30, and now I'm just trying survive another year with my fingers crossed that yet another body part doesn't join my shoulder, neck, knees, and back, and start hurting 24/7 just for shits and giggles.
I already learned my lesson here.
Last time I said something like that was November of 2019.
Man, 2020 really did seem hopeful back in 2019, didn't it? New decade, presidential election coming up... What could possibly go wrong?
Narrator: And that's when the Fire Nation attacked.
"I'm calling it: another global pandemic-free year! And the sweet song of Lady Liberty spreading from that shining city on a hill in Washington, D.C.!"

2026 marks the first year in American history where a completely home-grown pandemic forces borders to close, and air-traffic to be redirected as to avoid receiving American passengers. The EU, Arab League, and countless other countries congratulate themselves on rapidly orchestrating the containment of the disease to the USA; truly a landmark moment for international relations. Meanwhile, a Georgetown-based super-PAC "La di libertine" gains untold amounts of influence in government, following an uncannily well-timed short-sale of AI-based stocks. When asked about speculations as to their ties to Italian crime syndicates and fascist hardliners, they declined to comment.
Nobody's said "this is going to be my year" in many many years.
Haven’t heard that shit in at least two decades.
I'll throw a party when Trump is out of office or dead. Both times if they happen on different days. I'll be hoping for just the one party though.
It will be a very interesting period when he dies, but for 4-5 days nobody dares to remove his body from the White House, thereby leaving his rotting corpse in office.
It's the white house. You think they don't have a fridge/freezer capable of holding a body somewhere in there?
I know they do. I doubt however that there's anybody who'd dare touch, let alone be able to lift, Donnie's "235lbs" body.
Hey hes 6'3 and 225 get it right
/s
Quite the fitting symbolism vis a vis the overall state of the country, if we’re being honest - rotting from the “leadership” downwards.
I predict a whole "Weekend at Bernie's" DeathGate scandal where a whole bunch of executive actions and auto-pen shenanigans happen posthumously under his name, even though Vance is right there. Why? Because it's exactly the same kind of greedy and stupid this administration has demonstrated so far.
With more AI presidential addresses like the Kirk speech.
at least 3 days, they probably expect him to come back
You reckon they'll embalm him? Chuck him in a glass coffin and charge money to see him, and all that?
Fun fact: embalming fluids are usually flammable.
Do with this information what you wish.
This is going to be my year
@!remindmebot@lemmy.world in one year, please call me with an update on this.
"To shreds, you say..."
I will just say at any moment of the year that this is my year and be done with it
Make it a self-fulfilling prophecy, fuck yeah!
Why are the two unnecessary asterisks different sizes?
Subtle gen z tiktok humour, we are too old to understand. Just look at his mustache, we wouldnt get it
Because of the intonation.
Hey look, it's that tweet from a few weeks ago with a different picture.
Welcome to the internet.
Have a look around
There's no polite way to say this: have you guys stumbled upon any of the naked boobs, yet!? Like, holy what!? I can't believe some of the things they're allowing up on here!
So, if I slap you, it's assault, but if loads of people make slapping you a regular occurrence, we should stop caring?
You're equating creating a meme from some clever shit you saw someone say with slapping someone. Stop being dramatic, I'm just saying, this is how the internet functions. It's not hurting anyone, and it's just a way to spread comedy, so who cares?
Wee, another person who doesn't understand how analogies work. You see, class, saying A is analogous to B is not a statement of equivalency, but a statement of structural similarity. The response 'welcome to the internet' is sarcasm meant to imply the previous responder is foolish for having standards of some kind and should simply accept and expect that people cannot be held to any standard. The further response asking the respondent, via analogy, if more people doing something is all that it takes to make it acceptable, asks them to consider the implications of the belief that repetition makes right.
Now that you have a more fullsome understanding of things, will you demonstrate the maturity and intelligence to integrate that knowledge into action or will you demonstrate an inability to comprehend, only to raise a pretense of reason?
No, I will block you for being a condescending prick.
I care. Why do I need to see someone else's tweet slapped over a picture of a shitty goatee? It adds nothing. Just repost the original.
Nice!
2026 is gonna be my year. Whatever it takes to chase my dream.
I support you Malware!
Atta boy! Infect them all!
let's wait until 2027 before I dare to say that
Tifosi, every year
