    Uh - tbh, having a cleaned raccoon baculum would be pretty fire.

    I don’t think this is that odd, barring the fact that it’s RFK Jr. I taught high school science, and I was routinely brought animal corpses by everyone from students to other teachers. I didn’t even teach biology.

        You’ve clearly never worked in a university biology lab.

        Out doing fieldwork Graduate student: “Hey [my name], smell my finger!”

        Turns out, certain species of ant smells like blue cheese if you crush it.

        My favorite was a post grad that let a tick feed off her for a week to prove it could prey on humans.

        RFK Jr is the kind of unhinged mind that did deserve better. That doesn’t make the perhaps thousands to millions of deaths that we will be able to trace back to him both directly and indirectly less reprehensible, but I really have had very similar conversations to the one you just tried to “reductio ad absurdio” describe.

        I would absolutely say that.

        Edit: when your friend brings home cool raccoon parts, you take a fucking interest. Have you never had a taxidermy girl in your life?
