I like how he worked hard for The People all his life to be remembered so fondly, and with such great respect, after he passed.
He’s got about a week left to live and prevent a special election until he will have been dead since June.
When my grandmother’s dementia progressed to the point that she was practically nonverbal, that’s how she would look at anyone talking to her. When they’d finish talking, she’d do an enthusiastic single nod, and then would slowly fade back into herself. My mom thought that the fact she’d sing along to “Tomorrow” and would get up and dance to specific songs meant that my grandmother was still happy. The doctors all agreed that, while getting her to sing and dance was great for exercise, it didn’t appear to be a legitimate indication of her happiness.
I had very similar experiences with my grandmother. It hurts to look at pictures of her from that time, because she has a smile on her face but it’s clear she wasn’t “there”.
It’s pretty telling that they’ll prop Mitch up on some pillows and have him loosely hold a newspaper in one hand, but won’t let a reporter anywhere near him.
Nope! Chuck Testa.
This is the exact same look my Dad would have when he was deep into dementia, and didn’t recognize anyone around him. He would just smile and agree with everything.
It just looks like they had him wear multiple shirts through the span of 5 hours to drag out 5ish weeks. I still don’t care as much… just release the Epstein files
Did you know Tasmania has the cleanest air in the world!
More specifically, Cape Grim in northwest Tasmania is said to have the cleanest air in the world. According to the Cape Grim Baseline Air Pollution Station, the strong winds that blow in from the Southern Ocean near Antarctica help keep the air pure and free of pollutants. So take that much-needed “breath of fresh air” to a new level by heading down to Tassie and inhaling the cleanest air on Earth!
How do I unsubscribe from the unrelated Australia facts on every post?
Hey! Now you know what it’s like reading about American politics all the time! 🌈
Well if the OP was about Australian flora and fauna and there was a comment about American politics you were replying to, I would totally agree with you.
I’m Australian and I think American politics are important because so many of the evils we’re currently facing were inspired by the Americans.
then feel free to live your life in c/politics, c/news, and tbh practically every other comm, you don’t even need to login to the site, it’s frontloaded with american news, politics, topics and twitter memes
lemmy shitpost is for shitposts not american politics
if you cannot handle an irrelevant little fun fact in the commets section i don’t know what to say, teaspoon of cement or just block me?
Mate, I upvoted your Australia fact, I liked it. I thought it was a pretty great joke you told.

Why are people mad at you??? Australia facts are great!
Agreed. I look forward to more random Australia facts.
Glad to see they got most of the drool wiped off his face.
Looks like Mitch is gonna pull through midterms
