Well, now if only we could get rid of our fatboy with delusions of dictatorship grandeur in the states (after taking care of his more capable ballsuckers like Pence and McConnell) but it wasn't the 'rona apparently, seems like it was a stent gone wrong.

I mean, if you were working on fatboy would you be extra careful?

[ChairmanPoo]

Stent thrombosis is impredecible and quite nasty.

When I was a first year resident I saw it happen to a woman who had just been discharged. She hadn't even started to gather her things when she collapsed.

Maybe it is true.

Not much point logging into Steam if the DF premium rewrite hasn't happened yet!

I could totally see KJU being a Fortresseer. With a need to overuse DFHack, of course.

Sad to have to post about a little fat man after those lovely hentai but it appears* he is back from the dead (again).

* Either that or the parallel dimensions are down another KJU, hee, hee.

Comparing pictures from the factory and historic ones, is that age[1] or illness or... someonething else causing the jowelly differences?  I mean, how long can they have to search for someone who looks sorta-like him in the event of ever needing one, given that Saddam had a brace or more moustachioed lookee-likees on his payroll already.

To his people (not in on the plan) a mixture of credulity, loyalty and fear might be enough to let them use someone roughly of the same appearance, with a new Supreme Leader Haircut №1 if he didn't already have that one from the Approved List before being officially appointed.

Though, if they wanted to do that, they obviously failed, given that I've got more-than-a-suspicion about it.


I suppose it might be whatever it was that kept him out of the public/international eye for this period of time that could have changed him. Too much bed-rest and/or a minor but bruising face-lift and/or a change in diet/etc. But who knows. Well, I'm sure someone does, in Pyongyang or a Letter Agency regional department at the very least.



[1] I'm not as familiar with how the oriental face ages, as one closer to home might, and even then I'm far from a forensic expert.

(Obviously if I were to say that %Random_Ethnic_Person_1% looks indistingishable from %Random_Ethnic_Person_2% then I might be saying something with at least a hint of racism to it. I think I'm on safer ground potentially saying the complete opposite, but still a little self-conscious I might be falling into a very similar kind of trap.)

If it was a look-alike then they probably wouldn't have let a video be taken of him from so close up. Maybe him waving from the balcony in the distance or something.

[Max™]

I think they had a lookalike in case something happened but fatboy ate him and just got done sleeping afterwards, hence the disappearance/added fatbitchbabyness.

[Cheesy Honkers]

it's not possible that the rumour turned out to be a lie, no sir, it's a great conspiracy to fool us

[sluissa]

Obviously some sort of flawed cloning technique is involved. Possibly with unexpected effects from an accelerated aging process.

_{Edit: I would probably rule out nanomachines though.}

Tbh Kim is doing what any sensible person should be doing: he's social distancing

[scriver]

But how do you social distance when your entire country is outside during the exact same 30 minutes

[misko27]

North and South Korea exchange gunfire over DMZ. South Korean military says no one was harmed, US Secretary of State says it seemed accidental. Unlikely anything will come of it except increased tensions: South Korea is attempting to reach the North over the Military Hotline to see what's what.
