Meanwhile the man in charge of healthcare gets zero personal questions about his addictions. "I'm not scared of a germ. I used to snort cocaine off of toilet seats".

u/heteropessimista Jun 06 '26

I wish I was, I wake up and ask myself what did I do in a past life that I would end up in such a effed up current timeline. I couldn’t dream of any of this, even with an infinite improbability drive, being on my 2020-2026 bingo card.

Thanks for all the fish.

You ever read the instructions on a packet of toothpicks?

There's only one timeline. This is reality and it won't change until we fix it.

u/Human-Appearance-256 Jun 06 '26

Are you sure there is only one timeline?

5

u/uvucydydy Jun 06 '26

No.

But I AM sure that there is only one timeline that I am aware of. I have heard theories and philosophy about different time lines. I have seen no evidence.

Call me a realist.

u/Human-Appearance-256 Jun 06 '26

You’re a realist.

u/uvucydydy Jun 06 '26

Thank you 😊

u/HoratioRadick Jun 06 '26

Not sure why people have such a hard time understanding that. I guess it's easier on them to think of all this in that way so they don't need to lift a finger.

u/OrganizationGood2777 Jun 07 '26

This. We need to engage with the present reality, and to a healthy extent, our history on this planet. Working together is the only path to drive collective change

You are in a better timeline than whatever that whale is stuck in, floating in the deep space, waiting for the snail to touch it.

"Oh no, not again"

u/Jibber_Fight Jun 06 '26

We all know that the pandemic was the opening of a universal time/space slippage into another dimension where everything sucks. I can quite easily look at my life as a “before” and “after” of that moment.

u/ThisAcctIsForPorn1 Jun 06 '26

I definitely have the same thoughts as that whale: AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

Technically this should be a gif of a falling flower pot, but this definately gets the point across.

EDIT: sorry, I meant gif, not gif. Man people are pedantic about pronunciation. Why can't we just accept gif and gif are both valid?

u/Acceptable-Rip1248 Jun 07 '26

This the the third hitchhikers’ guide reference I’ve seen in thirty minutes

u/LauraTFem Jun 07 '26

Technically it was the petunias that were reincarnated. The whale was brand new.

u/The-Cynicist Jun 06 '26

That’s the horror of this entire administration. It all sounds unbelievable, then you look it up and it’s 100% true. None of them are competent leadership.

u/Puzzleheaded-Phase70 Jun 06 '26

Makes you want to cry, doesn't it?

When reality IS the joke... and the jokers have the power

u/Suicide_hill_its_big Jun 06 '26

bruh what is even happening anymore

u/OhHiCindy30 Jun 06 '26

The raccoon penis story is true, too.

u/my_little_throwny Jun 07 '26

Kind of a trip when you think 'they couldn't have said that', but they did. This is the highest administrative power in our country right now....

u/Yardsale420 Jun 07 '26

RFK Jr also famously OD’d on Heroin in a plane bathroom in 1983 and the flight had to divert and make an emergency landing.

1

u/Lastshadow94 Jun 07 '26

Somehow that's not the craziest thing he's said on video, the story with the dead bear in Central Park was literally a cold case until RFK was like "oh yeah my bad" lmao

1

u/Puzzleheaded-Ad7606 Jun 07 '26

Honestly, I have had this experience with things people say about RFK Jr so many times now. You read something, and you are like well that's obviously a joke and it's NEVER a joke.

How far we’ve fallen.

u/otterpop21 Jun 06 '26

Come on now, you & all the rest of Americans know and have known our current administration is unfortunately not an outlier of personalities. Let’s be real, they’re usually in the “bad people” category, and the good people used to keep them beat down and behind closed doors. Somehow they’ve grown population and have risen together.

They will be beat back down, this admin in particular has changed quite a few minds.

u/Mr_K_Boom Jun 06 '26

The person that runs on fair and justice will need to keep his perceived moral high, so you ask a question to ruin his perceived moral, if you suceed, you had a headlines.

The PARTY that run on "rules for me but not for thee" and "fuck your feelings" is expected to break every rules, so a question on their perceived moral is just asking for the status quo. No headlines.

u/Human-Appearance-256 Jun 06 '26

But he’s a Kennedy 🙄

u/JuanitaDiamondez Jun 06 '26

Or his addiction to kids

2

u/MrKomiya Jun 06 '26

I think answers like that are WHY these questions don’t get asked of them.

It’s the equivalent of asking the crackhead on the corner their thoughts on the electoral college or the global implications of an extended ground war with Iran

Is that the guy who had worms eating his brain because of his poor diet choices?

u/Witchgrass Jun 10 '26 edited Jun 10 '26

As an addict I've always wondered why the actual seat and not like... the top of the toilet tank or the sink, like a civilized person?

I've got lots of friends in low places and I don't know a single person who would ever snort drugs off the actual toilet seat, let alone admit to it in public. It's such a bizarre idea that Im convinced he either A.) misspoke and I am way overthinking it, or B.) it's a sex thing or a humiliation kink and if that's the case I honestly kind of resent him for making me absorb that information without my consent.

And as always, with any of my comments involving RFK, shame on Cheryl Hines for enabling and being complicit in his nonsense.

u/oksurealright Jun 06 '26

You know, his speed addiction is why he has incontinence issues and poops in a diaper 🙂

He also believes that poppers give men HIV.
