Ok 49 days is impressive for a lettuce. It's also impressively bad for a prime minister.

Lettuce see how that goes

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

all the leftists should go there, make it a trans forum, let's see how quickly she starts censoring things there.

That actually sounds like a good idea. Can you post images? Might start a twink of the week poll.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

That's actually genius

Any politician launching their own media network is a reprehensible piece of shit.

Prove me wrong.

Counterpoint?Obviously I don't have any examples here.

I'm sorry if I got anyone's hope's up

I hope this was a brief, fun, moment of mystery for a few of us.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Not even the vegetables are that dumb.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I heard the vegetables preferred candidate is a head of lettuce

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

Why not a cabbage, they tend to smell

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Can we flood it with Rule 34 lettuce posts?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

So any of the users will be able to freely tell her to kill herself?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Think she has a bigger issue with being told she crashed the economy, after she crashed the economy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

But it sounds like she want to lettuce say whatever we want!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Lol, oh, no. It'll be like Trüf Social where only the platform's dear leader can do that.

Desperate to somehow stay relevant. Shunned by Trump at his inauguration, despised by most of her party and the laughing stock of the opposition.

But she’ll be back in some guise next election, representing Reform.

Everyone gonna call it lettuce regardless

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

They could capitalize on that, and call it "Let us social!"

That would give it a friendly name and make her more approachable, which is why it won't happen.
