"Allegedly"

Dude was caught grinding on camera. Nothing alleged about it.

I just got a three day ban from Reddit for saying he should up his intake by 10x.

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Why are you still on Reddit?

[–] StupidBrotherInLaw@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago

Don't kink shame. A humiliation fetish is perfectly respectable.

is that news?

he's visibly high in some videos

[–] Pnut@lemm.ee 27 points 1 week ago

When people do stupid things you might ask them "are you on drugs?" Sarcastically. In this case it was a serious question. At the highest level.

Has anyone else noticed that we don't have many dystopian/apocalyptic movies but way more documentaries these days?

[–] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 23 points 1 week ago

He should've gone with that angle after the sieg heils. "Sorry bros, my bad, I was just stoned off my monstrously deformed and hideously botched nuts".

[–] MisterOwl@lemmy.world 20 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I hate Elon as much as any sane person, but who gives a fuck about "allegedly"? Wake me up when there's an actual story.

[–] Tja@programming.dev 8 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Because unless it's proven by a court, they have to write allegedly.

Oh. Good point. I admit I got ahead of the facts there, so thanks for that.

Yeah, you could tell. This isn't really news, just a confirmation.

[–] motor_spirit@lemmy.world 17 points 1 week ago

he brazenly showcases his addiction to power and money and you thought he was going to exercise control with drugs? I've got a place in heaven to sell ya

[–] Grizzlyboy@lemm.ee 15 points 1 week ago

Hopefully he’ll OD in a pool or something!

I wish Trump would take some shrooms. It might make him more human.

And the sun rises in the east.

[–] k0e3@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The sad thing is, I think his sentences are a little more complete and coherent than Trumps' even in his drugged out state.

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 1 week ago

That's not a high (heh) bar to beat

Least surprising headline of the year.

[–] Sorgan71@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

in other news, the sun is hot

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 week ago

The following people would be surprised to hear that.

END OF LIST

[–] the_riviera_kid@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

I'm shocked, just shocked that and unhinged drug addict would be doing drugs. Who could have possibly known that would happen? If only there was someone who could have warned us like literally fucking everyone already did.

What? Somebody thought he would stop his habit after taking office? Also when in Rome, get high with the Romans... I don't think Trump even switches on without the right substances.

The K-hole A-hole

[–] nao@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Did they think he would just stop after they "hired" him?

[–] owenfromcanada@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 week ago
[–] char_stats@lemm.ee 7 points 1 week ago

Seems about right.

Not enough drugs to redeem his incredible amounts of evil and cringe

[–] Bakkoda@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 week ago

No AI is gonna out hallucinate me!

[–] DizzoMyNizzo@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

No.

Fuck this guy. Let him be the most sober person who did what he did, when he did it. No excuses.

[–] DizzoMyNizzo@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

You cannot be the one person who constantly suffers throughout your entire life because you made one poor decision while intoxicated once, while this guy literally has billions, and is the richest person on earth. The news is covering him, and making fucking fake excuses for him.

"Roman salute"
