The headline is poorly written and awkward, but the core idea is actually kind of funny.

      So clever my first suspicion was that the source had been photoshopped.

    I’m glad they can make a joke that’s not just “_____ identifies as _____”

      The original deadline must have been “RFK identifies as sniper bait for Trump” and they changed it last minute.

      They’ve had a few throughout the years but they’re just completely drowned in an ocean of diarrhea and I can’t even remember one specifically, only the experience of having being surprised by a decent joke from them before.

    yeah, this is definitely a good one. The hexbear peeps just don’t understand humor, they’re chronically unfunny.
