Why is RFK Jr. taking up so much space in people's heads?* He's a weird kook who's no more going to be the Democratic nominee than Mike Pence is.*Yes, I suppose this toot is contributing to the problem in its own small way.

@the_Effekt TBF, I don't think Biden even promised this. It was just something the wallet inspectees persuaded themselves was going to happen, any. day. now.

@hannah It's a Latin edition of Lucan published by Aldus Manutius. One of the first pocket-sized books.
