And yet somehow the least craziest thing he’s done… so far…

[–] DeepThought42@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

That we know of

In the future we will undoubtedly gain much more from a posthumous study of RFK Jr than he ever gleaned from that raccoon and its member.

Is the study to measure the pleasure derived from pissing on his grave?

[–] Barbarian@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 weeks ago

Probably more useful to study the damage that can be caused by a dead worm to brain tissue.

I can't get over the fact that through every one of these weird ass stories of his, his children are patiently waiting in the car. Patiently. Children patiently waiting in the car. While their dad mutilates the corpses of animals. Yeah I'm sure they were real fucking patient.

Whatever you grow up with is normal to a child.

Yup! I thought everyone grew up with a polycule of cool grandpas. My initially homophobic but eventually learned better father was mortified.

[–] W98BSoD@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

A polycule is an interconnected network of people in polyamorous relationships, forming a "relationship molecule" or web. It includes partners, their other partners (metamours), and extended connections, ranging from tight-knit, cohabitating groups to loose networks. Polycules often share emotional support and responsibilities, thriving on communication and intentional connection.

Yeah I hear at first grandpa had a bunch of "uncles" living with him then it was just a bunch of grandpas because I kept calling them all grandpa (I'm terrible with names). I didn't even hear the term polycule until like a decade after the last of them had passed and thought "oh! That was them!"

like most of these ancient vampires, aren't his children adults?

[–] pickman_model@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I have a feeling he took the kids and made that a teachable moment. See kids, we cut Mr. Raccoon' pee pee, then at home we clean it up and we'll have a nice baculum we can put in the living room with the rest.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

he is pretty much associated with epstein at least on 1 or more occasion.

[–] pickman_model@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

During breakfast: kids, guess who is visiting us today? Yes! Uncle Jeffrey! So go get the baculums and show uncle Jeffrey what I taught you.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

Welp I'm gonna need to buy another cat, and this one is going to be to guard the household's penises from the government while we sleep. Can't believe I'd be writing that sentence again

Truly a man of science, covered in and excreting all the various fluids he can find.

[–] xc2215x@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

A strange dude.

[–] glasratz@feddit.org 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I always wonder if he has personally killed people. But not very much.

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

He looks like someone who would get off on choking someone to death.

[–] glasratz@feddit.org 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

And acts like you'd think someone like that would, too.
