I think most of us can agree that 2025 hasn't been a great year, but I guess it really could have been worse.

Went through what, three donor hearts? Man was a living ghoul.

Many, many people had to die for him to reach this age

Pretty clear he feeds on the souls of the living.

Sorry, fed.

Is “polarizing” a synonym for “war criminal”?

So yeah, going to be a pain in the butt today getting my car realignment done.

But not smarter, Dick was a lot smarter than these Dickbags, its the only thing going for them is that they are dumber than they are facists

I didn't realize he was that old.

We tend to hold a mental image in our heads of someome at the point they hit their peak notoriety. The Iraq war started over 20 years ago.. yeah he got old in the years since then.

(Major media tends to use earleir photos that the various news outfits may have had on file)

Here's the Al Jazeera story with a rather recent photo. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/11/4/former-us-vice-president-dick-cheney-dies-at-84

Only 25 years too late. It's not even a celebration when they're just old and ran out of hearts.

Sunflier@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 290d

Kirk, Cheny, Pat Robertson . . ..

Can't decide who I'm more rooting for to be next. Orange Turd? Miller? Banon? Fuentes? Musk? Someone else? Still so much cancer left.

"Powerful" "Polarizing"

The man is dead, there is no need to suck his dick anymore. It's cold and limp now, much like the rest of him.

He doesn’t seems that bad anymore, does he?

homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 291d

Yep
