So, reading the short article, only one infected monkey escaped, per the sheriff's office. Then the University they are from clarified that their infected monkeys are not contagious, and there were no infected monkeys on that truck.
The monkeys are for primate virology research.
Nice reminder of just how hard spun headlines are.
Now tell me there was 12 monkeys in there
RFK Jr will be very worried that his newly recruited team for the health and human services department had an accident whilst travelling to their new government offices.
I actually had this one on my 2025 bingo card.
what else is
Two dead presidents... Didn't say which countries tho.
I feel like I should check on the story in about 28 days…
Witnesses of the crash:
So... Tuesday.
Honestly, I'd be pretty aggressive too if I had hepatitis, herpes, and COVID and was just involved in a crash.

Well, yeah. Murdoch adding more salt to the wound.
First rule of 12 monkeys club is that you do not talk about 12 monkeys club
Truck carrying aggressive monkeys infected with hepatitis, herpes, and COVID crashes
A long as no one fucks the herpes monkey we should be fine.
in Mississippi
Shit.
They changed the article title but the URL still holds the goods.
You'll see this is the case everywhere if you keep an eye out. Fake news, and quiet editing after it circulates. Often on purpose. Like Dezi, the guy that shot cops raiding his house in Australia and went into hiding in the bush. All media outlets pushed stories that he sexually abused children, before removing all references to child sex abuse in later days after everyone had read the story. Likely to further remove any public support for the guy.
The story has been updated with information from people who know what they're talking about (as opposed to the idiot sheriff who made that claim)
Fair enough. But I hadn't posted it for factual value.
Ah yes. I forgot the news, and reality has taken a "Who's Line is it Anyways?" approach to interpreting reality. Everythings made up, and the points don't matter.
Why the hell were they transporting those monkeys from one place to another?
Funding cuts?
Nice
That's probably for the best. Nobody should be subjected to fox news, or contribute to their ad revenue.
451 is a great error code. It's a reference to Fahrenheit 451, and is used to indicate government censorship. In this case it's being used all wrong, and almost ironic in nature.
418 is a fun one too. "I'm a teapot"
418 is always a little disappointing though. Lots of projects out there touting their "full HTCPCP compatibility" when all they do is serve 418 to every request; no actual coffeepots I could find last time I looked.
Are there 12 of them? Asking for a friend.
Great flick. I think Brad was awesome.
I think he was so convincing that maybe he's a bit unhinged IRL.
Between that and fight club...
I agree though. Thoroughly fun to watch!
You're telling me Dead Alive is real now?
