So maybe Al Gore would have made the timeline different.

Yes, but only because of the gorilla. No other significant difference in policy.

[–] alcoholicorn@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Which policy though?

He did support invading Iraq, he certainly would have invaded Afghanistan. He would have been coup'd by his own party if he actually threatened the fossil fuel industry.

Gorilla policy

[–] Nanook@lemm.ee 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

“no other significant policy” ≈ would do all the same things, except Gorilla.

[–] kautau@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

shhh, be quieter when you talk to the gorilla. they're sensitive creatures

[–] criitz@reddthat.com 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He opposed the war in Iraq

[–] alcoholicorn@lemmy.ml -3 points 2 months ago

Gore supported the first war in Iraq, and bombing Yugoslavia. Why do you think he would have been any different RE gorillas or imperialism?

[–] essell@lemmy.world 37 points 2 months ago

So, odds he's Harambe's real dad?

[–] rustyfish@lemmy.world 36 points 2 months ago

This actually happened. Fuck me, there goes my good night sleep.

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 32 points 2 months ago

Curious George.

[–] naeap@sopuli.xyz 22 points 2 months ago (1 children)

And she's obviously begging him to stop what's happening to poor Harambe

Nevertheless, poor minded George wasn't able to comprehend, what he was asked for....

[–] TriPolarBearz@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Poor minded George seems to be the opposite of Curious George.

The way people who've never used drugs describe drug use is always funny. "Chainsmoking PURE weed" 😂

[–] krimsonbun@lemmy.blahaj.zone -3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

bro's gatekeeping harmful substances

[–] Letstakealook@lemm.ee 4 points 2 months ago

Not at all. Why pretend to use "harmful substances."

[–] Psychodelic@lemmy.world 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Now this is my kinda brainrot; nostalgic

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 2 months ago

I was in a band called Nostalgic Brainrot in the mid 80s (which is the entire decade).

We only played covers of the worst disco songs we could find. We were not very successful, or even widely tolerated.

It's so weird looking at a photo of a president capable of popping a squat. We haven't had one of those in awhile

I'm worried about Trump falling down 5 steps, shattering like a cup, and starting a civil war over the conspiracy theories.

[–] Bakkoda@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

What? Obama was fit as hell

[–] 0ops@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Agreed, but he hasn't been in office for almost a decade

[–] Bakkoda@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

That just means I'm old. Fuck lol

[–] nifty@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

I think it was actually Bowie’s death which changed the timeline, and preventing Harambe’s was our last chance to revert it back.

[–] somegeek@programming.dev 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I think he's the father of harambe

[–] Quadhammer@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Harambe is a time traveling alien sent back in time to stop the assassination of jfk but the lizard people stopped him first and imprisoned him in that zoo. You do the math
