      There’s something beautiful in that. And memes are likely a more trustworthy source of info than most websites these days.

    Think about it - this isn’t like, “oh I can’t believe the news she died!” This is straight up: “yep, died of old age, totally expected.” She was on the way out for a long time and everyone who supported her being there knew she couldn’t fulfill her job requirements yet let her stay in office for political reasons. Which doesn’t make sense to me either: her seat wasn’t going to be filled by a Republican.

      Yeah but do you know how long it takes to animate another corpse? Especially when you have a perfectly malleable one at home. It’s just not practical for the modern political necromancer.

    Boomers will never vote for anyone younger because they hate you so expect another 161 year old.

    Also LOL this is how I found out.

        I’m sorry you’re getting downvoted in a shitpost sub. Some people who can’t love themselves try their best to make sure others share in their pain. It’s ok. I found your joke lighthearted and amusing, and my day is better for it. I hope you have a great day, too. Do we ever stop to think about how today is one out of a limited amount we will live? Surely, under such circumstances, I want my brothers and sisters to experience as little pain as possible. It seems only right. Sometimes that amounts to tough lessons, but what use is a chide without a correction? It comes down to indecency - a decent person passes negative judgements in a constructive, not a dismissive way. But, unfortunately, your fellow humans are not always so enlightened. What then? Well, I suppose we must carry their pain for them, along with our own, and we must resist the temptation to pass our pain off on others. Over time, this builds character - and when you can recognize quality character in others, you can form alliances and work together to teach others to likewise build character. It becomes a rather rewarding process, over time. Cheers my friend. Let us join our good will together, and together be a force for kinship, love, empathy, and stoutheartedness in this fragile, broken, but beautiful world. Peace my friend - I love you when even no one else will. Don’t ever forget that! And think of my from time to time, my friend!
