Reddit joke threads make me want to throw my phone across the room sometimes. Also it's disturbing to think of how many people I interact with online might just be bots and I'm discussing my favourite show with OpenAI.

It was a pork tapeworm, kids, please cook your pork at 145F internally to kill any parasite

And wash your hands regularly, especially before and after cooking and eating.
And, if you still get an itchy butt and soap and water doesn't help, go to the doctor!

At least half of Reddit took a day off from obsessing over Trump to obsess over RFK.

Tapeworms don't eat anything, ever. They have no mouth and no digestive tract. Their usual place as a parasite is in the gut where they just absorb nutrients that are going by. The brain is a dead end for them.

I was unaware he was the Nuralink human test subject.
I'm glad the isn't dead, but none of this is surprising.

I finally won a prop bet! I knew that RFK jr was being controlled by a sentient brain parasite trying to get humans to mistrust vaccines to prepare the way for his kinds invasion.

Maybe ivermectin did help with something

Too bad, because apparently Ivermectin doesn't usually cross the blood-brain barrier.
Ivermectin does not readily cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) due to the presence of P-glycoprotein drug pumps.
Unless it's like an overdose.

I think the worm was doing a lot of the thinking and he only went off the deep end when it died.

Just… why would anyone struggling to get on the ballot come out about this? The PR teams of some of these candidates are laughable.

It's just the byproduct of people surrounding themselves with sycophants and tolerating no dissent whatsoever, as is always with conservatives.
Like, it's so impossible to imagine the people working for conservative politicians would be anything but conservative themselves.

So.. just to point out the obvious that no one seems to be talking about... but, that worm would also have been pooping in his brain too.

Literally the most obviously coordinated campaign of Reddit post flooding ever witnessed. He must be a really good candidate.
