      Personally I’m expecting him to get shot, not even necessarily for being a shitstain but because he is a Kennedy. If some dumbass can try to kill Reagan to impress Jane Fonda(?) for some reason then someone will want to kill RFK Jr for the meme.

          Your comment led me down a rabbit hole. I don’t know much of actors - I suck with faces and my unmedicated ADHD makes watching movies a chore, so I rarely do it. That means there are a lot of names I hear that don’t have faces attached. Jodi Foster is one of them.

          Starting at her Wikipedia page, I went Jodi Foster > Bugsy Malone > Scott Baio > a news article from 2016 about Nancy Mack, the wife of RHCP drummer Chad Smith, being accused of attacking Scott Baio at a children’s school function by imitating how Trump treats women.

          TLDR

          Baio claims she repeatedly screamed, “Grab 'em by the pussy.”

          Baio asked Nancy to stop, but he claims she kept repeating the comment because she felt everyone needed to hear it, cause Trump used it. Baio told cops at that point Mack attacked him, grabbing him under his arms and then shaking and pushing him.

          Sources close to Mack say she was merely trying to show Baio how Trump hugs women and denies any intentional physical aggression.


          I had never heard this story before, but found it morbidly interesting. It sounds to me like both sides were right - it was inappropriate, but that was the whole point.

          Ooh, and I found an update!

          TLDR

          The Ventura County D.A.'s office has reportedly rejected the case on the grounds of “the assault just wasn’t that bad.”

          The latter article (and the TMZ article it links from) also speculate that LA’s left-leaning population made finding unbiased jurors unlikely.


          Anyway, just thought that was interesting.

    Well as long as we can blame women, that’s what’s really important. Remember moms, if your child is neurodivergent it’s entirely your fault you irresponsible hag.

      This sounds like satire, as though this isn’t exactly what these people actually think.

      100 years ago, when these people think was the ‘golden age’, women were actually blamed for their children’s issues. They blamed nearly everything on women. Yeah, let’s go back to that: MAGA women, how does that sound to you? Do you think you’re one of the good ones?

      Let’s bring back lobotomies for women who have too many opinions, too. The world was better when only men were allowed to have opinions and women were the root of all evil, like the bible says.

          Leonard’s mother in Big Bang Theory is based on this theory.

          Although technically she should be Sheldon’s mother.

          And Sheldon’s mother should be Howard’s mother. And he should be gay.

          Oh god. I’d never heard of that. That was a thing, started by an asshole psychologist in the 1940s. Legit psychopathic mentality, wtf.

          e: so the jist is that your kid is autistic because you suck at being a parent and are too ‘cold’. Imagine your’re doing everything you can, but the entire medical system is telling you it’s your fault for not caring enough. That’s the ultimate gaslighting. Because if you cared enough, your kid wouldn’t be this way.

          e2: and reading more, they took kids away on this grounds. I feel so horrible for those parents. You had no recourse at all. You were doing your best, and your child had a medical issue, but based on the social symptoms of your child you were a ‘refrigerator mother’ so your kid was put in an orphanage. Wtf.

        It still happens today.

        I just had a baby. You’ve no idea how many times we were told “Good/Great Job Mom” after hearing the baby is healthy, and seeing it isn’t deformed.

        As if an illness would be my wife’s fault.

        We just left those on read. Like WTF?

          My wife had cancer young and it caused her to be unable to nurse our children; she just couldn’t produce enough and so we bottle fed our kids. It’s been over 10 years but she still gets shit on for it by certain types (including some in my own family who remind us whenever they get a cold). She is so goddamned, rightfully angry with the types who try to shame people for not breastfeeding.

          Those types are in charge of policy right now.

    How far are we along with “autism is a genetic defect and we are now euthanizing defective humans for the benefit of society” are we?

      …and they aren’t even calling it Vitamin B9. Big science words. Aren’t they the ones that want to ban any words in food that sound scary? I mean, it’s folic ACID! ACID!!!

    I was once told that Tylenol wouldn’t pass today’s standards of the FDA. I believe it. Pretty sure that it’s the second leading cause of liver failure… Don’t both ibuprofen and naproxen last longer?

    Honestly, this is probably one of the better outcomes. Hopefully ibuprofen works well enough for pregnant people. He could have agreed with “vaccines cause autism” thing to fuel his attacks on vaccines. Or worse, he could have noticed that genetics play a big part and started a eugenics program.

      That’s the sad thing.

      The sentiment is good. MAHA pounding Big Processed Food and Big Tobacco and (to an extent) Big Pharma and such is great.

      …If only the specifics weren’t so awful.

    Good news for Canadian fentanyl super labs.

    This report will result in a massive lawsuit by Kenvue.
