  • That was my first thought too. Bells Pasy just makes your face droop. You’re not cognitively impaired in any way from it. My step dad had that back about 10 years ago maybe? Only thing that makes me think it might be more is his face is far droopier than my stepdads ever was.

    I feel like Bells Palsy is a sort of paralysis from the virus/bacteria (i forget which one it is that causes it). And this seemed more extreme. But who knows, cant diagnose someone from a picture.

    Edit: Cause unknown for Bells Pasy. You learn something new every day. I thought it was caused by a virus or bacterial infection, thats what I was told as a kid.




  • Im all for calling out Trump for his senility as much as the next guy, but this is kind of reaching to call a dementia moment…even I didnt know Leningrad wasn’t a city anymore. And im in my 30s, far from senile…Hell, I didnt know it was called Saint Petersburg before. And it was only renamed St. Petersburg in the 90s sometime. Probably something you’d only know if you are actually a Russian citizen, or live there.

    Or you know… googled it just now and read the Wikipedia article on it.

    Edit: Wow, didnt realize calling out an article for its bullshit would be a controversial opinion. I’d ask my mom if she knows where St. Petersburg and Leninburg are at, but I already know she wouldn’t know they were the same city…ya’ll can stop telling me how common knowledge this is now. I dont care.

    Edit 2: just for funsies, I asked my mom (in her 60s btw) if she knew where Leningrad was…she had no idea.
