      I like the idea of this bot but could you make the text a bit smaller? It’s pretty obnoxious ATM.

        This is what I see:

        Maybe the summary tags aren’t working on your app? But I guess the “Thanks to…” section could be moved to the footer, too.

              Mlem dev here. It shows strikethrough, but not superscript. Lemmy has got a unique dialect of Markdown - in the current version we’re using an open-source Github-dialect parser, which is close to Lemmy’s dialect but not perfect. In the next update we’ve written a custom parser that handles all of Lemmy’s Markdown elements, including superscript and spoilers.

          Most app clients don’t fully support formatting yet. I’m on Boost and neither spoilers nor superscript work.

          I don’t know the numbers on each app vs web clients, but I suspect apps are a significant portion. Ignoring their limitations is ignoring a good portion of your users.

    No wonder JD wants to make porn illegal. I’m almost with him if it means me not getting Rickrolled with a gif of him fucking a loveseat

      “It’s not a loveseat, okay?! It’s a couch! I don’t fuck loveseats!” - Vance, probably?

        “It’s called making love when it’s a loveseat! It’s in the name!!! Also, ban porn NOW!

        – From The book “Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir Of a Family and Culture in Crisis” by author JD Vance

      I’m agree, but it is still funny. Anyway, apparently he wrote about it in his book?

        He didn’t write about it, which is why this went viral, in a way. It was an online joke and some AP reporter searched his book for the word “couch” and wrote about it in a fact check to disprove that JD fucked a couch

    The AP was correct to pull the article. Nobody can definitively say “J.D. Vance did not have sex with a couch” just that “J.D. Vance did not write about having sex with a couch in his memoir, ‘Hillbilly Elegy’.”

      We don’t even know he didn’t write about it. All we can definitively say is that the story about J.D. Vance fucking a couch did not appear in the published edition of Hillbilly Elegy.

      Did he fuck a couch? Did he write about fucking a couch? Only Vance can tell us for sure and he’s probably too busy fucking a couch.

              I’m not sure but if everyone is saying it there must be something to it, dude definitely enjoys the chaise.

                I disagree on that concept. Just because a lot of people are saying something doesn’t mean there is something to it. Should we look at it? Absolutely yes

                But there is a guy who made a comment that says his grandma (or maybe it was his mom can’t remember) read the book so I’d ask who else has actually read the book?

                Good example of group think: lots of people thought disco was good.

                  I agree with you 100%. We should absolutely be asking why JD Vance would fuck a couch, if in fact he fucked a couch. And why so many people would be talking about JD Vance fucking couches if he didn’t.

                  It doesn’t really change anything for me but I don’t think I’ll be letting that guy around my couches. Not because I honestly think JD Vance fucks couches but it’s better to be safe than sorry.

                  edit: Personally I don’t want to read the kind of filth a couch fucker would write so I haven’t read the book but I have it on good authority that people are saying JD Vance admits to fucking at least one couch.

      My mother read the book, and tells me that the couch fucking part is absolutely in there.

      She also said he’s a bad writer and his book is mostly fiction, so the couch fucking is probably as true as him being from Appalachia.

    Aunty: Oh Vance! My favorite nephew! Come in come in! Sit on the couch with me! What brings you here?

    Vance: nobody likes me because I wear makeup like women do and I like to fuck the couch!

    Aunty: well worry no more! You can stay with us for as long as you like! There’s just one thing I need to tell you about.

    Vance: what is it?

    Aunty: your uncle and I have a house policy where we don’t wear any clothes indoors. Is that okay? I’m sure if we talk to your uncle, we can agree to let you fuck a couch too!

    Vance proceeds to get complete naked. Uncle comes into the scene and the aunty is already naked too.

    Vance: hi uncle!

    Uncle: well hello! I see you are getting used to the rules of the house!

    Aunty: yes. He also would like it if he could fuck the couch when he feels the need.

    Uncle: no problem!

    Scene cuts to Vance taking a shower. For more on this please refer to your favorite pornhub show.
