It's just the brain worm talking.

[-] disguy_ovahea@lemmy.world 34 points 1 month ago

It could also be the mercury poisoning or the batshit insanity.

[-] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 30 points 1 month ago

I think the brain worm starved to death.

[-] OpenStars@discuss.online 47 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Actually the real answer, iirc, is that his brain was too toxic for it to survive. I'm not even kidding!! :-P (he ate so much fish that he gave it mercury poisoning)

Then he used that to claim that he had a mental disability that was so bad that he should not have to pay money to his wife after the divorce.

Now his campaign says that despite the brain worms, he totally doesn't have a disability.

This man is amazing - he is literally all things, to all people, at all times (at least in his own worm-addled mind, that is!:-P).

How long do you have to cook fish to cook off the mercury?

[-] OpenStars@discuss.online 9 points 1 month ago

Cooking doesn't help any. I wondered if washing would... but also no. Or trimming, but again no. Basically you just need to avoid it.

https://www.fda.gov/food/environmental-contaminants-food/fdaepa-2004-advice-what-you-need-know-about-mercury-fish-and-shellfish says you can:

eat up to 6 ounces (one average meal) per week of fish you catch from local waters, but don't consume any other fish during that week.

It's got a ton of good advice - which types of fish are okay, which are less so, deeper answers to timing and many other questions too.

he ate so much raw fish that he gave it mercury poisoning

So why did you write raw fish there and not just fish?

[-] OpenStars@discuss.online 6 points 1 month ago

are you flirting with me?

'cause im so turned on right now by your words...:-P

That’s why it smells like a warm turtle tank in here.

I have a question about your link.

[-] RustyShackleford@literature.cafe 6 points 1 month ago

ImgBB? Right now image upload is down for literature.cafe, so I went with what’s easiest (no forced account).

[-] Skua@kbin.social 2 points 1 month ago

Some instances blocked ImgBB because it was being used to spread child porn a while back

[-] RustyShackleford@literature.cafe 3 points 1 month ago

Ahh, I see. How unfortunate, because it’s an easy file uploading for mobile devices. Any alternatives?

[-] tsonfeir@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Instance level content filter?

[-] ChihuahuaOfDoom@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

I wonder if he got it from undercooked bear...

[-] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 48 points 1 month ago

A worm literally ate part of his brain, so him being crazier than I'd think is a pretty high bar.

After reading the article: Alright I'll admit it, he's crazier than I thought.

[-] inspired@kbin.social 10 points 1 month ago

I'm imagining him switching his VP pick to be the dead worm. Do I still need to read the article?

[-] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 1 month ago

I'd say it's worth the read for seeing how bonkers he is and having some things to cite when people bring up wanting to vote for him

[-] hperrin@lemmy.world 28 points 1 month ago

I think he’s about as crazy as I think, because I think he’s really fucking crazy.

[-] SteefLem@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago
[-] SpicyLizards@reddthat.com 9 points 1 month ago

Nah, that's the crazy I expected

[-] gregorum@lemm.ee 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

unpossible!

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Is there something new in this article about his crazy shit?
