I googled David M. McIntosh.

He's a boomer Reagan era conservative, co-founder of the federalist society, and millionaire.

These kind of people are so out of touch, they'd make Marie Antoinette blush.

He probably never entered a grocery store in his lifetime

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

This is a thing, and I don't understand it.

Like, the grocery store is a drag and it takes a lot of you... But that's where you find all the cool foods and snacks!

These dumbass rich people are missing out.

Bruh don't throw around the word millionaire like it means anything in post inflation 2026, anyone with a home in a city is a millionaire.

[–] Souvenir@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 weeks ago

The vast majority of people with a home in the city are in massive debt.

lol only a millionaire? What a fucking loser

Doubt he's even writing the post himself.

This is one of the dumbest political Xitter tweets I’ve ever seen, and that’s saying a lot.

Do they even know what a banana costs?

Ten dollars?

[–] Snapz@lemmy.world 19 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I'm like you all, I make my maid sit on the bananas until they are ready to hatch.

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The asshole knows full well how "bananas work".

Mitch hedberg :

Bananas are like the opposite of a traffic light. Green means stop and wait for a bit. Yellow means you're good to go. Red means where the fuck did you get that banana?

[–] tortina_original@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

That cunt probably thinks he can grow his own bananas in the US, too.

Former Republican government official who got ousted by a Democrat suddenly distrusts governments and Democrats.

I can barely boil eggs and cook rice but I'm brown enough to recognise plantains when I see them. Or am I crazy/blind? Also, how depressing is it that, for the average poor white supremacist American, this dude is considered a wise leader? Damn.

Depending how fast those got to market they could easily be non ripe bananas, they pick them before they are fully ripe to allow for ripening during transportation.

I often see very green bananas at my local supermarket.

[–] ArgumentativeMonotheist@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Certainly, yeah. 10/10 fruits, although you can fry plantains so I prefer them a bit more. 👍

[–] Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago

I actually get spicy plantain chips from Walmart. Not really keto but I only eat a few a day for a salty spicy treat and to remind myself of potato chips.

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

The ridges near the end look more like plantains.

[–] toomanypancakes@crazypeople.online 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

If you eat a lot of rice, seriously consider a rice cooker. Even a cheap one makes consistency easy. I can't help with the eggs though, sorry.

I'm pretty sure those are plantains too

[–] Souvenir@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 weeks ago

Going to comment just to also recommend a cheap rice cooker. Bought one for under 20 euros, perfect rice every time. Keeps it warm too. You can use it for other stuff too.

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Conservatives/regressives don't know how tariffs work. What chance do they have to know how bananas work?

[–] wyrmsbane@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 weeks ago

Great! More bananas for us.
