Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

regardless of politics I think we can all agree that those are some ass ugly boots

[–] Heresy_generator@kbin.social 37 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

The fake weathering is so poorly done. They look like wardrobe from some terrible B movie.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They look like part of a fallout 4 outfit.

I misread boots as boobs, and spent at least half a minute staring at her chest trying to figure out what the “fake weathering” of her boobs even meant, before I scrolled far enough to see the hideous boots.

As a gay man I’m not even fond of staring at boobs in the first place, never mind those of such a horrible person.

No need to explain, sir. Staring at someone's boobs for five minutes straight to get in on the smack talk is one of the gayest things I've heard of. And I used to spread my butt cheeks for Playgirl magazine.

She's clearly not a huge fan of sunscreen (not getting skin cancer is too liberal, I guess), so give her another 10 years and there'll be some real weathering on her boobs.

[–] Daisyifyoudo@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Suncreen is woke

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Several of my gay friends still enjoy a good boob. I think it’s more of a “this thing gave me life” instinctual thing than a sexual thing but we can still agree 😀

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

They, like me, do not enjoy these particular boobs just to be clear.

[–] absentthereaper@lemmygrad.ml 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yeah nah, you wouldn't catch me dead in gaudy-ass shitkickers like that. I'm not gonna outright denigrate cowboy boots, but cowboy boots that garish? Fuck outta here, girl, what are those?

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Those are what would be sold to a dude. At a dude ranch.

[–] absentthereaper@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not even dude ranchers would wear those.

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not the ranchers themselves. The city slickers, aka "dudes" that visit the ranch

[–] absentthereaper@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Okay, the clarification makes sense.

[–] TurboDiesel@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Reminds me of my favorite Nina Garcia quote from Project Runway; "who is this girl? Where is she going?"

[–] ivanafterall@kbin.social 12 points 1 year ago

Worst part is that she's forcibly, visibly turning her feet to be sure you can see them. She's very proud of them.

Let's not besmirch fine ass people around the world

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

I wish those boots were delivering the state of the union so that my dumbass friend and I could boo them

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

All boot, no cowboy.

[–] guyrocket@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What are these ass boots you speak of?

[–] Jerb322@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago
[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

If you aren't Chris Evans, I agree.
