the craziest thing is how you'll be prowling around wikipedia and find some entry about an unknown 14th century ruler who was physically deformed and couldn't string a coherent sentence together.
and you laugh: look at those uneducated, slobby 14th century citizens who went with the flow of things.
then you see an interview with RFK jr. and you wave it away, because even if you notice how much he fits the profile, you think to yourself: "there's someone in charge who would prevent this in 2026," and get back to your tiktok feed of blonde influencers in nondescript luxury apartments showing off their morning routine.
"things are normal', you keep telling yourself. there's someone in charge who knows what they're doing--some higher power to guide us.
nah, it's only _______. but we're not allowed to say that word.
