But it was only fantasy
The wall was too high as you can see
No matter how he tried he could not break free
And the worms ate into his brain
That is so fitting, well done.
Questions…
-
Why would the NYT sit, for months, on a story where a PERSON RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT LITERALLY HAS HAD PARTS OF HIS BRAIN EATEN BY PARASITES?
-
… and why release this now?
Will say, the NYT is quickly plummeting on my respect-o-meter. Hell, they have been for years, but this past year has been particularly damning in my attitude towards them.
Sounds like the start of another thread. Please no replies in this thread everyone.
Moderating
Fuckin bravo!!!
(And how exactly does a worm get into a human brain??? Bloodstream? Sinuses? Bad tooth? Wtf??)
Someone smarter than me on the board said it’s by ingesting eggs via fecal waste, generally via poor water conditions in developing nations.
Ok, so I can see why worm eggs can get into someone’s belly. But from there… ? Sounds like through a person’s very blood, eh? Wormy blood. Wow.
Yeah, from belly to blood. If that’s wrong, it’s entirely the fault of the person I’m paraphrasing via my leaky memory.
To post on the thread topic, Kennedy is no more gaining steam than any other candidate. Check out Kennedy’s barely moving polling line here:
I think the brain worm story is going to hurt his chances.
I’m no political scientist, but I have to agree that the phrase brain worm story is not a good omen for a campaign.
The Kennedy brand sure has come a long way from Camelot.
Didn’t Camelot pretty much end by Ted? I mean he was a far cry from the charisma of John and Robert.
Okay. On X theres a poster with his name with a blue check mark that posted
I will eat 5 more brain worms and still beat Trump and Biden in a debate.
Funny!
I’m in Massachusetts. He’s remembered here as a very effective politician with incredible charisma in person, if not on TV.
And also as a habitual drunkard. Which for people in his generation was not considered much of a failing.
Well, he’s the only candidate who supports efforts against lobal worming.
Teddy was also known as the Lion of the Senate because he was so effective at getting bipartisan agreements on important legislation. For sure, he was a deeply flawed human being, but as a senator he ranks high.
[spews yogurt, guffawing] You owe me a new keyboard.
I would never vote for RFK, Jr., but given that an Originalist reading of the Constitution in no way excludes zombie brain-eating worms from serving as prez as long as they meet the other requirements, I might consider voting for one.
Worm for President!
