Trump 2 changed the calculus

[-] blarghly@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago

Yeah, my hot take here is that the church wanted an American pope to be able to clap back at Trump, and try to sway some of his religious supporters.

[-] CuddlyCassowary@lemmy.world 57 points 1 month ago

Pope Francis was from S. America, so technically this is not the first American pope.

[-] PunnyName@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

Quick question: what is the demonym (a word used to identify people who are from a particular place) of the people from the USA?

Morons feels more accurate. As a moron anyway.

US-American, often abbreviated to just American.

[-] JackbyDev@programming.dev 6 points 1 month ago

American. Or if we're being a little silly 'Murican.

[-] BambiDiego@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

According to English speakers who didn't understand the proper meaning of words like "continent," it's "Americans." It's stuck around now though.

According to most other languages and nations who use more accurate descriptors, it's closer to "Statesman." You know, people from the 'United States'

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

Personally I'd say Statesian than Statesman, but it is the same thing

Amusingly, the very first search result I got for "US americans" is Exactly what I thought it would be

Here in Murica the colloquial meaning of an unqualified "America" is "the United States of America" its just the way we speak ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The big ol' typo in this meme makes it work even better.

Covfefe is probably served at conclvaves.

I'm starting to think we live in a Neal Breen movie.

[-] Snowclone@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

No... no... NOOOOOO!!!! IT MAKES TOO MUCH SENSE!!!!!

[-] NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

It's a simulation, and they're just fucking with us now.

[-] BmeBenji@lemm.ee 6 points 1 month ago

If you have 2 hours that you just really fucking hate and want them to suffer, watch “Fateful Findings” on Youtube. Someone uploaded it and since Neal Breen publishes and distributes all his own movies, Youtube doesn’t scan for them as copywritten.

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Update: I watched it. This shit is up there with The Room. Distractingly awful.

That ending. I would have thought the President of Bank could have come up with an original way to off himself.

And why did Neil have to say every line twice? Why did he have to say each line twice?

[-] Snowclone@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Homie. He doesn't make movies. He makes ART!!!

[-] BmeBenji@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago
[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

They're fine, along with my title-less identical books

[-] DakRalter@thelemmy.club 3 points 4 weeks ago

Don't watch it alone, it's actually mentally exhausting. I managed two alone, no more. Watch it with at least one other person so you can snark it as you watch. Fateful Findings was probably the worst. If you're not brave enough to face them alone, Kurtis Conner and Space Ice have snarks of the full films.

Also his films do get taken off YouTube for copyright. Internet archive has the full collection though.

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I like to stream bad movies in the background while I work, but they can't be distractingly bad, like Ghost Rider 2 ... I'll check it out.

[-] ProfessorProteus@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

We need #EyesOnBreen right now

[-] wanderwisley@lemm.ee 14 points 1 month ago

An American pope? In this economy?

[-] socsa@piefed.social 4 points 1 month ago

It worked in Blazing Saddles 🤷

[-] HakunaHafada@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

Dank reference. 🫶

[-] eestileib@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 1 month ago

Oh fun, I look forward to American gun insanity getting mixed into the Catholicism.

I'm sure the new pope is honored to have CitiesByDiana congratulating him.

Conclvave sounds like something you see a doctor about after a week locked in a room with hookers and blow.

It's real, this is a meme Instagram account.

[-] zarathustra0@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Real but satirical? I'm okay with that.

[-] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

I wonder if he’s going to turn himself into a sandworm.
