RFK Jr. left dead bear in Central Park

[pixy0stix]

I kept waiting for one of you to post this so I didn't have to. This is one of the most batshit crazy things I have ever heard a presidential hopeful ever admit.

And you know that eating road kill is a great way to get a brain parasite...

I spoke with a friend right after Biden announced he was no longer running for re-election. The person asked if RFK Jr would be taking his place 🤦‍♀️ I had to explain, no he’s an Independent and HE’S BAT SHIT CRAZY!!! Once I said it would likely be Kamala they were like oh, yeah, duh, and they’ve had A LOT of personal stuff to deal with lately so I’ll forgive them. It was a sobering reminder of how unengaged in politics the average voter is and how far the Kennedy name recognition will get you. Don’t worry, they will be voting D in a blue state and are passionate about a couple of key issues Dems support and R’s do not.

S/o The Kennedy family, Jack Schlossberg,
JFK’s only Grandson, was recently hired as a political correspondent for vogue. Here’s an article about him.

One of my friends (who is generally informed and intelligent) recently (but before Biden dropped out) said that she "really likes what [she] heard from him." Apparently she heard literally *none* of his crazy stuff.

What a dangerous nutjob. He's like Connor Roy, but more frightening and less honest.

[cville]

Also. He left a dead bear cub that he took from the side of the road and transported to the city in the trunk of a car in Central Park when he was SIXTY YEARS OLD. And sober. As a "practical joke." SIXTY. 5 years before you can qualify for Medicare.

This isn't cute at all, but can't even be blamed on youthful drunken idiocy. He's a conscienceless jackass.

I saw the headline this morning and scrolled on past, thinking this can't be real life. Even though I knew it was.

I mean, and think about what we're otherwise working with here. It takes a LOT to stand out.

[penguingrrl]

Such a bizarre story.

There is so very much to stand out. There was 4 parts on btb which was bad enough but then there was the many story in John Oliver which highlighted even more bsc.

I knew about the anti vaccine awful but I had no idea he was also an hiv denialist. That's a really extreme kind of dangerous crazy

[Velar Fricative]

Honestly it wasn’t the least shocking thing dumped in Central Park probably, so I shrugged. Also, Olympics.

But our Department of Sanitation did remind city residents this morning on how to dispose of a dead animal. Thanks for the PSA opportunity, RFK Jr.

[erbear]

I heard this on the radio today and said “what the fuck?!” out loud.

[jlt19]

I couldn’t read it without putting in my email, but does it mention that it was Carolyn’s daughter, Tatiana Kennedy Schlosberg that wrote about this happening in 2014?

I went down a Kennedy rabbit hole on Wikipedia and saw this update today. Obviously not a legit source, but sounds fitting for the family.

He’s also selling teddy bear merch. Not sure when it was released.

One thing I’ll give to him is that he attempted to get ahead of the story (that he knew was coming out) by saying, “Yes, I did this” rather than try to deny it and cover it up.

[maudefindlay]

And he admitted this sitting at his kitchen table talking to Roseanne Barr!

[maudefindlay]

And he participates in falconry. Like that could have been a whole article right there, but he's so bsc it's just a side note.

Nope. I award him no points and may God have mercy on his soul.

Not just participates. He did it from a young age and took it to boarding school, bringing rotting meat with him along the way. He is deeply weird, but I guess I can blame some of that on being a Kennedy. That any of them escaped normal is probably the most abnormal thing about them.

[icedcoffee]

This cracked me up…

[maudefindlay]

TW on the photos.

His treatment of his late wife (they were separated, not officially divorced) was something too. She may have been an alcoholic, but he really painted himself a victim.

And he left a bicycle next to it, to imply someone hit a bear cub... with their bike. In central park. Because that makes sense. 

[wawa]

I wish I moved in the kinds of circles that I could have heard the bear story from somebody who was there that night as just a fun night of story telling. Like the stories my mom's cousin told me about may aunts and uncles last time we hung out. "Omg RFK JR. This one time he had both a bear and an old bike in his car for NO GODDAMN REASON..."

I have follow up questions though - if he was coming back from falconing did he also have a bird in the car? How big was his car? a bear and a bike both take up a fair amount of space. How does it seem like a good plan to leave dead animal rotting in your car while you down martinis and eat steaks? It must have smelled absolutely appalling. Did he have a tarp or something?? Also speaking of martinis - Is he a known non-drinker? Why is it "obvious" that he wasn't drinking? The idea that he did this sober is worse! does he get that?

[pugz]

yet his supporters still think this chucklefuck has an actual ability to be elected.

[maudefindlay]

I feel like he is pulling away more would be Trump voters than Harris supporters, so koko.

A house near me has had an RFK for President sign up for months. We snort in disgust every time we go past it.

This morning, I went by, and it’s gone!! The Bear must have been the final straw. 🙄

but not for Joe Rogan. For him it must have been the right kind of unhinged, erratic, generational wealth and privilege to draw his support away from Trump.it’s so on brand that his take is that ‘Kennedy is the only one who makes sense’ to him.

Joe Rogan can keep telling all of his followers to vote for Kennedy. The more the merrier! The vast majority would never vote for Kamala, so if he can keep siphoning votes off of Trump, that would be fantastic!

And he once used a chain saw to cut the head off a beached whale then strapped it to his minivan roof and drove 5 hours home with it up there. Other drivers were flipping the family off per RFK Jr's daughter Kick. Gross alert, warning***

Any time RFK Jr braked or made a hard move Kick says whale "juice" would come into the windows and it smelled so awful the kids had plastic bags on their heads.

Apparently he likes studying skulls and bones....
