I guess I'm glad my father is only "ancient aliens" crazy after his TBI made him a trump supporter.

I guess I should be glad my TBI just made me super socially awkward and obsessive about weird niche topics.

I have an uncle who is basically a leftist boomer, but who is into that Art Bell kind of stuff. More recently he's been getting into the "big pharma is keeping us sick" stuff and it's really frustrating to see.

Damn, like Fetterman. Sorry that happened to your dad.

Fetterman was an asshole before he was on the national stage.

Same with my dad, although he was a fiscal conservative before just because he's a financial advisor and Republicans are good for business.
