It either stays completely covered or completely peeled. Them's the rules.

They are suggesting ADHD people to be recruited to peel the remaining blue paint off the reflecting pool in DC. ADHD people tend to hyper focus on certain tasks and some tasks that are straight forward and monotonous tend to be soothing.

I would gladly go and do this free of charge to feel that sweet sweet satisfaction of peeling paint, and also destroying something Trump did.

And the bottom meme is a play on Star Wars where all the Jedi were being killed… except it’s RFK Jr trying to put all ADHDers in camps.

It's called a "cruel irony", like my dependence on medication that I have to remember to take every day.

How does one unqualified-but-willing-to-give-it-a-go-i-mean-how-hard-can-it-really-be land a multimillion contract?

They were also putting bleach into the pool trying to kill the algae, and maybe that helped the paint peel off

Do not feed Reflecting Pool. Do not look Reflecting Pool in the eyes.

At an impromptu press conference, Vice President Jadey Vance announced there is, in fact, no staticky hum coming from the Reflecting Pool. In fact, because citizens are not even supposed to be aware of the Pool's existence, "they could not possibly be receiving a menacing and unearthly voice instructing listeners to bring couches, gold, and nubile preteen girls to the Reflecting Pool."

Shave me from myshelf.

Shave me for myshelf? Hmm...

HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 54d (1 reply)

if you could shave yourself, you'd shave us all.

Is that what you called me for?
Is that why you're knocking on my door?

I can not shave you! I can't even shave myself! So just shave yourself!
