      "“The worm in question does not ‘eat’ brain, regardless of what he says his prior doctor said. Rather, it forms a cyst that displaces a small amount of brain. When the cyst dies there is some inflammation that can transiently affect brain function but should not cause long-term consequences.”

      I looked up cysticercosis on the internet and it does say that usually there are no long term consequences if it is treated. It did say, though, that depending on where it is located, it could be life-threatening and that there were some documented cases where there were sign of severe dementia. One case I found showed the dementia was reversed. So is the reversal of Jr’s ideology caused by this cyst?

      ​@@archiegoodwinjr There are a few areas of the brain where neurogenesis (fully new cells can form)- the hippocampus, olfactory bulb. There is OK evidence for a couple other areas. But most recovery from injury is rewiring what's left, not new cells to replace the damaged ones. Also, localized inflammation causes microglia to migrate to that area and cause pretty much permanent dysregulation.

      Make sure your sushi is frozen before it's prepared (this is a food safety regulation, any fish that's served raw must be frozen first) and you should be fine.

    His campaign should play if off using footage of Fry from Futurama when he got brain worms that made him jacked and smart after eating an truckstop egg salad sandwich. (Truckstop egg salad sandwiches are real btw, I saw one on my last road trip.)

    I loooove when guys say something in their divorce that contradicts what they’re saying in public 🤣🤣🤣. Eg this guy, Alex Jones, probably dozens more. (I’m a divorce lawyer)

    It's the conservative self burn. Every unsuccessful candidate has one. The 'Huckabee Holler,' 'The Please Clap,' and now the 'Elect Me, I have a Calcified Symbiotic Worm In My Brain Box.' 🤦‍♂
