Every time I see something about RFK Jr’s worm brain, I hear that lyric from Pink Floyd. And the worms ate into his brain.

I cannot believe it is October 2025 and we still have no clarification about what kind of worm we’re talking about and where it came from.

The worm only ate a bit of my leg. Yeah, my leg is partially detached and doesn’t work, but it’s still there! Worm’s dead now. All good. Don’t worry. I promise.

Poor worm should’ve chosen a healthier diet.

How is this reality. I dread the day I have kids and have to explain to them this is why they live in a hellscape.

I hate this timeline so much. We are so fucked. Like, idk if people even realize how fucked we are. Supreme Court is about to change the voting maps, giving MAGA almost permanent control. Who needs fair elections, right? Nazi’s are now popular again, and when young republicans are caught with Nazi flags MAGA says it’s just “AI” or “Planted by democrats.” Prices are at an all time high. People kidnapped off the street and sent to camps waiting to be sent to a county they’ve never known. Healthcare up. Farmers suffering. For the first time ever the average car buyer is now paying $50,000.
Sorry for the rant, it just sucks seeing a sinking ship and most people in America don’t seem to care

Friendly reminder that the reason this tidbit took off is because RFK used it as an excuse in order to pay less in alimony and child support. He told the court that the worm caused him cognitive issues, and those issues would cause him to earn less. (I would give a source, but all the top hits with this story are paywalled. There are stories about it in *Slate*, *Politico*, and *Rolling Stone*. [This article](https://www.cbsnews.com/news/rfk-jr-parasitic-brain-worm-mercury-poisoning/) briefly mentions that the worm excuse was stated in a 2012 divorce deposition.)

God seeing them together is eventually going to ruin Curb Your Enthusiasm for me.
Which is super unfair bc Cheryl was already the worst part of the show.
My partner’s dad is a retired neurologist. He says the worm eating your brain isn’t even the biggest issue — it’s that *after* the worm dies, your body has no mechanism to clear the corpse.
So now you just have decomposing matter in your brain + likely all kinds of inflammation as an immune response.

I laughed my ass off during this interview.
Cheryl: I went from independent, to democrat, and back to independent.
Also Cheryl like two minutes later: BUT OBAMA!

Worms can have a little RFK brain. As a treat.
