    This is me if I don’t write down the list.

    “It’s just 3 things!”

    “I’m gonna write it down anyway.” - me

    Forgets list at home.

        “I’m so sorry, that woman over there just purchased all of our rice.“ She barely manages to wave above the overstuffed cart.

        Alright, can you point me toward the quinoa?”

        “I’m so sorry, all we have left is barley.

        *gasp* my gluten allergy.

      Exactly this. Most days I can’t even remember a simple list of 3 things at the grocery store… So I can’t fathom remembering even a portion of a debate speech.

    It’s interesting to me to think about the optics of posting memes like this.

    On one hand, it’s funny, and 99% of the Lemmy community would vote for him over Trump.

    On the other, if it was posted anywhere else I would be worried about the implication of scoring an own-goal.

    I’m scared the election will be a close call, I really don’t know how good of an idea it is to clown on Biden (even though, as aforementioned, it’s funny, and shouldn’t convince anyone to vote for Trump).

      I do know what you mean. Idk, I feel like when in a small enough community as it is being on Lemmy. Only so many people will see this anyway. We’re already a fringe group.

      Tbh I wish Biden didn’t have to be an option to begin with. But I’ll still vote for him over Trump. Hell, I’d vote for a bag of rocks over Trump. At least the bag of rocks can’t possibly be gunning to become a horrifying dictator.

      Don’t worry it won’t be a close call. Trump has this one in the pocket unless we change the democratic figurehead for someone who actually has some meat and spine.

      Yeah it’s propaganda, intended to get people to stay home instead of voting against Trump. There’s tons of propaganda on Lemmy, unfortunately.

      Right now the election might be a close call for Trump, not the other way around. Trump doesn’t need the popular vote to win, but if this trend continues he might get it and blow Biden outta the water.

      That’s not a bad idea!

      For personal use,

      [voice assistant] add X to groceries

      is quite convenient, but might try the printed version.

        Using that would be insane vs just writing down what you fuckin need goddamn. I can’t imagine having to scroll down all those columns as I’m going around the grocers.

        Also what about stuff that isn’t on that list? Now you gotta manage multiple

          Your second point must’ve been a common one. I screenshotted the newer editable version, so you can remove the pets and the arsenic or whatnot and add the handle of vodka etc.

    Yeah dummies, those faces Biden was making weren’t him forgetting, they were incredulous expressions in response to the lies Trump was putting out during the debate.

      Some were, some weren’t. He did have some senior moments, like claiming he wanted to beat medicare.

      I did notice he had many moments of straight up disbelief on his face at the thought that he is seriously supposed to be debating these man. I felt for him when he made those faces in those moments.

      But this isn’t one of those. Most of the time it just looked like he was absolutely terrified and distracted by something we couldn’t see off screen that wasn’t Trump.
