Thanks for the context I had no idea that psychotic “meal” was in relation to anything.
Could be worse. Could be Regan
JFC that’s disgusting, I can tolerate a lot of stuff, but cottage cheese? That’s just wrong.
It is believed that Richard Nixon ate pineapple topped with cottage cheese on his last day in office. Nixon allegedly ate cottage cheese every day because he thought it had health benefits and would top it with ketchup.
that is the most
wonderbread white mayo shit i think ive ever heard
Even as a girl who loves Cronenberg movies and who was downright giddy with excitement to jump into the flesh pit in Signalis, i can’t help but ask what the actual fuck was wrong with that guy.
top it with ketchup
“hemoraging clotted cream”
Surely it’s not clotted if it’s hemorrhaging. 🩸
Cottage cheese on pineapple was something I could almost believe would taste vaguely palatable but with ketchup? foul
Me eating solely a can of beans looks tame and reasonable in comparison.
Is cottage cheese similar to ricotta?
You can’t control your special interests but you can control how you interact with them. Speaking about the cottage cheese pineapple.
yeah what the fuck is that? with a glass of milk??
Nixons dinner
My dad has this semiserious bit he does where he will find the most… “unique” take on a topic and run with it. The best one he ever did was this one week where he kept bringing up how he thought Nixon was the greatest POTUS ever because he was in favor of a handgun ban that never materialized.
OP’s picture is what I imagine the inside of his brain looked during that week.
I met a man once that said Nixon was the best POTUS. He cited the EPA but I’m just gonna pretend it was your dad that one week cause that’s way better for my mental health.
I mean the EPA was a major win for the world even if it has been gutted since.
100%. Does that make Nixon the best POTUS? Does it absolve him of everything else? How much credit do we give him for its passage? Is it single handedly the best piece of legislation to exist?

No clue.

Definitely not.

In the US? probably.

Nixon also normalised relations with China
Nixon was framed by the CIA.
i know multiple people like this irl
There was a kid at my high-school who wore a suit and carried a briefcase. His locker had a picture of Ronald Reagan in it.
should have shoved him into that locker
💀
I knew a Reagan loving girl at school too. One time she told me her family was Yakuza and she could have me disappeared. This was in a small English city. I don’t think I’ve ever even met one other Japanese person there besides her.
Eventually she got a boyfriend who was autistic for the Tory party, and predictably had a stupid double barreled surname.
I don’t think anyone liked either of them.
Ronnie Raygun fans are wild. Especially when its decades after he was even coherent.
I know a guy obsessed with Lyndon B Johnson
At least he had an enormous dick
Jack Donnaghy
Meanwhile I have the Rats of NIMH autism.
The rats of NIMH were inspired by the research of John B. Calhoun
How many hitler particles per second do these books emit?
Robert O’Brian’s book is a little dated (there’s a bit of misogyny in it), but there’s still a compelling story so you can overlook it.
Jane Leslie Conly’s sequel books are fucking terrible. Do not read them. She also had some pretty bad internalized misogyny, her female characters are a fucking joke.
…Infact all of her characters are a joke. Nicodemus is especially out of character. Egregiously out of character. Nicodemus doesn’t choke hold children!
…Actually I’m starting to question Robert’s capacity of being a father- You know what? I don’t want to think about that. I uh… Yeah.
Of course you have Don Bluth’s fantastic “Secret of NIMH”.
I don’t like those expirements. Do like the original children’s book loosely inspired by it!
Oh crap, forgot about that literal nazi scientist I wrote in my fanfiction that worked on that experiment and is made the butt of multiple jokes!
If you overcrowd rats with no enrichment/stress relief they become stressed, and so they attack each other, eat their newborns, become antisocial, do more gay stuff than usual (that’s funny ngl)
“Waow, 14 words fr fr” - yankkk “scientist”
Yeah it’s a garbage “”““study””“”.

Reminds me of a guy on
that had seen me make some off hand comment about Margaret Thatcher being a demon and slid into my DM’s ready to argue how amazing she was. I let him know how funny this was and it seemed to take all the wind out of his sails.I have a family member who I suspect is autistic that has US presidents in general as their special interest.
you should recommend Matt’s Hell of Presidents podcast to them
I dont like Nixon, but I still maintain he got fucked over by the CIA. I can’t remember the word for it right now, but they were the ones behind Watergate.
edit: Framed. He was framed.
Why woud the CIA want to frame him? (Honest question)
It is kind of my own pet theory, but the Watergate thing was sus and weird. The two guys who planned it apparently took it upon themselves to do it, all out of the blue. One of them was E. Howard Hunt, one of those real sussy sp00ks (why does the filter pick up this word?).
They then get 5 guys to do it, all experienced operatives, but for some reason when these guys broke in they left tape on the door to the hotel room. This was noticed by a security guard, who then removes the tape and goes on with his patrols, presumably because he is not paid enough to give a shit.
When he comes back the tape is back as well, so he looks inside the room and busts the burglars. Then investigations start, which Nixon lie about and try to stop and then that gets discovered and the press writes about it until Nixon goes away.Hunt wasn’t one of Nixons guys. Nixon was a bit of an outsider in D.C. He wasn’t Ivy League, he had had a less prestigious upbringing, which gave him a mentality of loathing the rich kids - in part because the rich kids were dicks to him due to him being “poor” (he wasn’t, but in their eyes).
The CIA at this time was a real old-money blueblood boys club. All yachters. And they had fucked over Nixon before, during his campaign against Kennedy.
So Nixon was paranoid AND he didn’t trust these guys. And the CIA had just recently had one outsider try to split it up, which then resulted in him having his mind blown. Why not make an example of another?
At this point in time the CIA was also more dynamic/mercurial - it was still settling in to exactly what sort of beast it was going to be. As such, in this time of change, it was still at risk for being molded by outside forces like a paranoid president. It couldnt just do what it would do in later decades: bunker down and wait 4-8 years. This was the formative years.On top of all that you have red scare paranoia, lots of drugs, OG Nazis and lead in everything. That Nixon wouldnt mess with the CIA is irrelevant, what matters is whether the shotcallers in the CIA felt threatened by him and whether they believed he would mess with them. Which they did.
So I think they framed him. I also think they shot Kennedy for the same reasons + Fears he would “go pink”. I think the analysis of people like Matt Christman of Kennedy where they only look at where he was, rather than where he was likely to go and where the ghouls thought he would go, is lacking. These guys aren’t omniscient. They’re stupid, paranoid and at the helm of a vast intelligence apparatus/organised crime network.
For video essays on this I recommend the channel Eyes Wide Open. For books i recommend The Yankee and Cowboy War
Ah makes sense
Eyes Wide Open is really good btw.
Tom Cruise movie where he’s actually into cuckoldry
He’s got the Robert Caro LBJ locked and loaded right there on the side
Wait I think my eyes are awful but it does look like it
the book in the picture has a photograph on the bottom right corner. and it looks like “RD” not “RO”. and that is definitely an “S” not an “R”
“RD” with an “N” directly underneath, so almost certainly “RICHARD NIXON.”
It’s this:
Leaders by Richard Nixon
The former president draws portraits of major political and military figures of our times–including MacArthur, Shigeru Yoshida, Adenauer, de Gaulle, Zhou Enlai, Mao, Churchill, Khrushchev, and Brezhnev
