For your birthday, I give you the gift of having to explain me to Jackie.

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 56 points 5 months ago

Oh she knew. Even before they got married everyone warned her that jfk wasn't suited to monogamy.

[-] neukenindekeuken@sh.itjust.works 29 points 5 months ago

He was a rich playboy with decently good looks. Monogamy was never in the cards.

[-] medem@lemmy.wtf 34 points 5 months ago

I never believed in conspiracy theories around deaths /murders of prominent people until I watched that video. 'as seductively as possible' is actually an understatement, she came short of sucking the mic. If I was JFK's wife watching that, I would definitely have given her 'a lesson'.

You got a link?

[-] medem@lemmy.wtf 11 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

I watched it as part of a German (ZDF) documentary on unsolved deaths of the famous, including Van Gogh and Monroe. The one part about Monroe prominently displays that clip. If that's good enough for you, I'll try to find it again!

Maybe Marylin was his one exception. Like he and Jackie had a deal where he could hook up with Marylin and she could hook up with Burt Reynods and it wouldn't count against them. 🤷‍♂️

Happy birthday,... Mr. President...

[-] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 10 points 5 months ago

Wait. Did Vince Gilligan add that one awkward scene (with Skyler doing the thing from the meme) to secretly imply that Marilyn Monroe ordered the hit on JFK?

[-] kandoh@reddthat.com 3 points 5 months ago

Careful with those barbituates

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Bubba was at the white house for krasnov's bday?

Ahhhhhhh politics. Democrats not being able to keep their hands off of young women, Republicans not being able to keep their hands off of young men. Both sides trying to convince everyone they aren't doing it.

[-] tetris11@feddit.uk 35 points 5 months ago

One side trying to fuck the working poor, the other side trying to help the working poor whilst fucking themselves at the same time.

(It's not the same, is what I'm getting at)

[-] imetators@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 5 months ago

While it is clear which side is less worse over the other one, I'd really argue that that one side that is not trying to fuck working poor is trying to help them. At best, they do bare minimum. In case they would really try and help working class and give them security, many things in USA would differ from what they are today.

[-] tetris11@feddit.uk 2 points 5 months ago

To that I'd argue, the shittier side has blocked them every step of the way that they've tried to do any real good. They have of course shot themselves a few times in the leg too

[+] MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.social -30 points 5 months ago

You don't think touching someone who isn't your spouse isn't the same regardless of what political party you're a part of? Seems odd. Call me old fashioned but infidelity is infidelity regardless.

[-] SolSerkonos@piefed.social 15 points 5 months ago

I just don't care, personally. Infidelity is the kind of thing that makes me go, "that's kinda not cool, but you do you."

I don't know what JFK and Jackie had going on- maybe they had screaming fights on the regular over it, or maybe they were both explicitly on board with him fooling around. Their marriage ain't my business.

As long as everyone involved is of age and consenting, I largely don't care who politicians are fucking past the memes being funny occasionally.

[-] rbos@lemmy.ca 8 points 5 months ago

I care to the extent that they care. If a politician is making bank on being moral and upstanding and against that sort of thing, I'll treat them as they treat others when they're caught with a side hustle.

[-] SolSerkonos@piefed.social 3 points 5 months ago

That's true- hypocrisy is a bad look.

[-] MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.social 2 points 5 months ago

That's not infidelity though. Infidelity is cheating. An open relationship isn't cheating.

[-] SolSerkonos@piefed.social 2 points 5 months ago

That's exactly my point, though. I don't know their marriage, I'm not their friend. What they have going on isn't my business. I don't know if Jackie Kennedy even wants me to be offended on her behalf, or if she's perfectly happy being his wife while he goes full on fuckboy.

Maybe he's cheating, maybe they have an open marriage, maybe he's not built for monogamy and she's fine with that because she gets to be first lady. It's not my business.

[-] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 5 months ago

And what do you call it when someone assumes to know the arrangements of a marriage from over 50 years ago, while attempting to inject a both sides style dilemma.

I call them tankies but I'm guessing you use comrade.

[-] MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.social 1 points 5 months ago

You'd be wrong on both accounts.

[-] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 months ago

Claiming I'm wrong on both accounts with no further elaboration.

Nice.

[-] MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.social 0 points 5 months ago

Do you need elaboration? I'm closer to libertarian.

[-] tetris11@feddit.uk 9 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

I'm saying the level of shit is stacked higher in one party than it is in another.

The crime is bad. The frequency of the crime when split by party has a humongous ratio

[-] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 6 points 5 months ago

Ive been well aware every time ive been cheated on. Its almost like if you cant trust your partner, you shouldnt date them. If thats something that bothers you then dont engage with cheaters. And if you cant tell whether theyre a cheater, then you dont know them well enough to be dating.

[-] titanicx@lemmy.zip 5 points 5 months ago

I mean infidelity really isn't old fashioned. It's a relatively new thought process. Most cultures throughout the centuries past have seen it as normality.
