RFK Jnr: “Fungus you say” licks lips
Ahh I see sex ed paying off.
Wtf is going on in the US? First monkey pox, then super gonorrhea, and now this??
A sexually transmitted form of roundworm is making a gross splash in the United States.
The first sentence is wrong. It’s not roundworm. Roundworms are actual worms. It’s talking about ringworm which is a fungus.
Isn’t it also transmissible by skin contact and not just sexual contact?
Yes. And not just skin-to-skin, but also things like bath towels.
But it’s gizmodo, which has always been trash.
Yes and, not just one fungus but a family of fungi! Also it doesn’t have to be sexually transmitted, you can get it from shared surfaces at the gym, public showers and even your pet cat.
I didn’t even know I had a cat, so I’m excited for the possibilities!
Every citizen shall be issued a cat from their local ASPCA
Ringworm is a fungus? Dafuq? What moron thought that was a good name choice?
The skin infections it creates spread outward and leave a ring-shaped scaly red welt that looks like a ring just under the surface of the skin, but it’s actually an inflammation boundary. I assume at one time people thought it was an actual worm under the skin because the welts tend to look very regular and more like a “round thing” than a skin infection.
(A very similar pattern of reaction boundaries was seen and sampled on rocks on Mars recently and appear exactly like the marks left by microbial life on Earth, and so far is one of our best bets for possible evidence of life beyond Earth ever having existed, and the mission to retrieve those samples was canceled as Trump slashed NASA’s budget, you know, so that money goes back into your pocket. Did you get it yet? How about now?)
People in monogamous relationships will be the last of us
What about those who ain’t getting any in the first place?
Believe it or not, wormed to death.
Jock itch is no joke.
So… It’s, uh… Fucking fungus?
And it’s a-fucking-mongus
Ringworm? My 2026 disaster Bingo card has Cordyceps. Oh well, 2026 ain’t over and there is 2027.
Why no los both? Group of monsters cheering
Whatever
Kingdom of Sodomy.
