We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

When Biden ran in 2020, they gave out patterns in Animal Crossing. But if I'm being honest, I didn't mind that pandering and some effort was involved, plus it was kind of what everyone was going during lockdown. Now this... mixed feelings but it must not have been cheap and at least there's some effort there (likely from a staffer). I only hope it works.

Gamer me only really trusts AOC, though.

You must not have seen Walz playing Crazy Taxi with AOC then! I reckon he has at least dipped a toe in Fortnite.

I heard about it; although Walz is definitely pro-game, poor guy had to give it up nearly 20 years ago. He's more likely aware of it, though, and what the fun is about.
