Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Don't you think he looks tired.
I wish that worked for men 😡
Keep repeating it over and over again and eventually it will.
I think my wife has said something similar. If someone said that to me I’d probably be like “yeah… I do need a long nap”.
I've been told that. I usually am tired so it's not exactly surprising that I look that way.
I wish it wasn't construed as an insult, I look tired because I'm tired. I ask if you look tired because you show signs of being tired, I'm not saying you look like shit.
There is some context that you are probably missing. This is a quote from a Dr Who episode where the Doctor uses 6 words to undermine the current prime minister’s administration.

IRL I think it could be an insult or showing sincere concern, depending on the situation
That however only works in a sort of sane, trusting and honest environment - basically something to undermine to begin with. If everyone is just utterly hellbend on lying and twisting reality, it becomes just noise and has no impact.
Capaldi and Matt Smith are my personal Favorites. I like Tennant, but the utter "sassyness" of Smith and Capaldis versions where sublime to me...
Is that a Doctor Who reference?
