The entire family is dumb as rocks.
It'd be hilarious if daddy dumb dumb wasnt a cult leader with so much power.

Teddy may have turned 8mo in that meme, but you sir/madam turned 1yo today (on Lemmy). So happy cake day to you!

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 week ago

Ha! Thanks

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It surprises me how stupid people seem to get power easily.

Happy cake day btw.

Confidence will get you very far in many fields. Unfortunately, more intelligent people are aware there are things they do not know and rarely have the confidence levels comparable to that of a dimwit.

I was hoping Barron would turn out somewhat less psycho, but by all accounts that apple hasn’t fallen very far from the tree at all

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 week ago

The turd doesn't fall far from the ass.

Yeah and let's note that he's clearly been on HGH, gender affirming care, since he was a teen.

You can literally ask any AI if being 6'7" at his age (or any of his heights/ages following the years where they started HGH) is normal, and it will voluntarily tell you while it can possibly be normal, in general no, it's a sign of excess growth hormone and the person should be screened for acromegaly or Marfan's. Per Trump, Barron has no diseases (yes, he's been asked about this before because his son is so tall), he is just that tall.

If Barron was as many standard deviations short as he is tall, he'd be 4'7".

He was not only given HGH, but so much of it that it potentially risks his heart and could be part of why he has alleged mental/brain issues.

Every fucking accusation is a confession with Trump - can't give trans kids puberty blockers, that's abuse, but you can accelerate their aging with excess HGH ig

This seems... Is there any actual evidence for this, or is this just kinda a wishful conspiracy? Because I'm all for calling out their hypocrisy, but not only does this family have a history of lying about their height, tall people.... exist. Approaching your full height at 19 isn't exactly uncommon.

~~(Ask an AI? Am I being wooshed?)~~

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Read what I said again - if he was as many standard deviations short as he is tall, he'd be 4'7". It is an ANOMALOUS height difference by a LOT. He is indeed that height when you look at him next to his family. Earliest reports of him being 6'7" is in 2021 when he was 15.... thats extremely unusual. Have you EVER met a 15 year old at or over 6'7"?? And he could be much taller these days, they havent disclosed any kind of accurate height. It's so anomalous that Michael Rappaport calls him "Big Body Trump."

There's nothing to say he is at his full height yet. And also, the anomalous height stuff started around 12 for him (he was relatively average height before that - v unusual). Also, being on whatever hormones, it'll take longer for his long bones to finish growing/growth plates to harden, he will continue to grow in his 20s past when everyone else stops. My genuine guess is that he will be near or over 7ft tall by 25 and stop growing then. He will likely have permanent, lifelong heart issues from this.

It's so obvious that it's growth hormone (exogenous or endogenous), that even AI can detect it.

Have you EVER met a 15 year old at or over 6'7"

Yes. Plus I asked an AI and they said this is just an absurd conspiracy theory (of such tenuous feasibility that the flat earthers all enthusiastically started supporting it), so I'm pretty sure thats conclusive.

My genuine guess

Is this performance art? Am I being whooshed right now?

No seriously, you think its more likely they're giving him growth hormones to make him taller vs. he's got tall parents and he is himself tall? Or that they're lying about him having a growth disorder?

Attack them for the thousands of legit reasons we already have, you don't need to make stuff up to justify it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I specifically said to ask AI if it's normal for a 15 year old to be 6'7", or a 18 year old to be 6'9". Go ahead.

Flat earthers are overwhelmingly MAGA types? They wouldnt like this idea, which is based in literal evidence you can see. Can't hide doping.

Yes, since it isn't the future and we dint know Barron's height at 25, since he isnt 25, I have to GUESS what height he will be, as done anyone. You're genuinely very dumb, huh?

Yes, if you understood what a standard deviation was, you'd understand that his height difference is significant even with tall parents. Again, so much so it is MEDICALLY RELEVANT and can INDICATE A BRAIN TUMOR (acromegaly). They know it's not a brain tumor because they've been dosing him.

Yes, I think Trump and Melania lie. Lol.

This is... fascinating. Its like art imitating life imitating art. You really are going all in on what is, even for the trump administration, absolute bunko. Moon-touched, foundation eroding goofery. Why-oh-why you believe this, I cannot know. But you've given one lowly professor of vapid truths boundless mirth in this dark time, and for that I am grateful. Ad hominem, no homonim, etcetera etcetera.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Okay you ARE genuinely very dumb. Good luck with that.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Ah, but in ignorance is bliss! So which of us, truly, can know the loser? Is not the knowing of others but the knowing of self? Is reflected in defeat, victory? In victory, the ignomy of defeat?

Perhaps an appeal to the authority on such questions:

Tragic, espies the jester of his lord;
There which lies one who may make sport of kings;
yet lone they know which jests do jape the truth,
lest not be ill words thrown by there the throne...

Seriously tho, not even waxing iambic, do you see how much store you're setting by this? Look, you're never going to convince anyone by claiming AIs as a credible source for anything you claim. Laying it out that, even if you did get your evidence from one, just take a page from this administration's book and lie about it.

... But you're still not going to convince anyone even if you do, you yourself present multiple more feasible theories for his abnormal height than "they're giving him hormone therapy" (why? what possible reason could they have for doing that? Seriously, why??). And surely I don't have to rip off the bard again to explain the fundementally quixotic nature of trying to malign the intelligence of someone while citing your own Genuinely™ inexpert opinion as a credible source, one to which you turn to establish the credibility of your claim? It's just circular citations, a death loop to the meaningless realms of pure chaos! You'll destroy us all with your speculation!

It's kind of normal for families to celebrate month-birthdays of babies.

[–] [email protected] 44 points 1 week ago (4 children)

That's stupid and makes no sense.

I celebrate every occasion that the child's age doubles, starting from the first second.

Yeah but I didn't call my son's 8 months his "birthday" for exactly this reason

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

Its not a birthday if its not the day you were born. I can see celebrating it though.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

1 month old, 6 months old, 3 or 9 months old, maybe.. but eight? nah, mate. that ain't a thing.

take your every-month picture for the scrapbook. but 'celebrate' or party or to whore-out on social for fake likes? nope.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago (5 children)

Yeah, we took photos of the kids in the same chair each month in the first year. It wasn't like we had parties, but this is normal new baby stuff. Plenty of legitimate reasons to hate the Trumps. Dogpiling on them for shit like this is petty and reinforces the right-wing narrative that the attacks are personal.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

The attacks are personal, the whole family are evil fucking Nazis.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago

Sure but we don't hate the Nazis because they played card games.

Maybe due to all of the accomplishments of the Cheeto king's administration life expectancy will be measured in months to hide the fact that our collective life expectancy has been drastically reduced. When you got studies coming out saying that the poorest European lives about as long as the richest American, well you know you got a problem.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago (5 children)

I think it's rather common around me to throw a tiny celebration each months on the first year. A treat and a small message to the family never hurts 🤷

Plus, 8 months is super round, it's a power of two and 2/3 of a year ☝️🤓
