A tweet by Ivanka Trump @ivankatrump saying “I cannot believe that Theodore is eight months old today! Happy birthday little teddy bear!” with an admittedly cute picture of a child smiling. It has a reply from @blacknmild saying “this isn’t how birthdays work”
My wife has a one month birthday every month as well.
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.
Her family is living in the mad hatters tea party
Never fails to amaze me how out of touch with reality they are.
and stupid. Don’t forget stupid.
What are you guys talking about, my birth day is a weekly recurring event. I was born on a Saturday so I’m now 2078 weeks old.
I am very normal.
Happy Birthday!
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 ☝️🤓
Lol, you got lots of down votes friend, but I too appreciate the number 8. It’s nice and it’s twice my favorite number.
Poor kid will never get an un-birthday though. 😭
Anyway, happy un-birthday to YOU! 🫵 AND You! 👉
In Dutch, birthday translates to “verjaardag” where “jaar” means “year” and “dag” means day, so the literal meaning of “verjaardag” comes down to “the day you grow one year older”. By that logic, the day a baby grows one day older could be named “vermaanddag”, where “maand” means month. It’s not a real word but it’s a good pun and it would get the idea across. Unfortunately it doesn’t work in English.
To be slightly absurd: Every day is a day you are one year older than the same day the previous year
Anniversary comes from annum, which means year, so you could have a monthversary maybe
Gross, they’re making more of them.
I don’t like picking on young kids no matter who their parents are. That kid has a chance to break the cycle like any of us do.
“now remember, you have a chance to go against your family, be disowned, lose all your possessions and shortcuts in life, but do something positive in life”
“I’ll weigh my options and give it some consideration”
and other hilarious jokes you can tell yourself
You mean like Musk’s daughter and many of Trump’s extended family have done? Yes. Exactly.
This kid is 8 months old dude. Jfc
Calm down, this is a general statement. And the exception is not the rule.
You know telling people to “calm down” is a dick move. I’m also plenty calm. Didn’t realize italics and “jfc” rustled your jimmies so much.
Sounds like someone needs to calm down
You’re trying too hard. Bye troll
You’re missing my point. I would rather they’d not have bred. I’m not saying to harm or judge the kids as babies…
I sense you’re one of those people who argues with people who prefer not to have children, telling them they’re lacking any purpose in life because they didn’t breed. Hope that’s wrong but this comment gives off similar vibes.
The fuck are you talking about? I don’t give a shit if people have kids or not. You don’t know the first thing about me. What a gross accusation. You’re gross and weird. How the hell could you possibly get that from “I don’t pick on infants”?
Edit: for context since your big brain can infer so much with so little apparently
What I’m talking about is that you got butthurt about the innocuous thing I said, as though it were directed at a child when it very fucking obviously wasn’t
Oh someone here is definitely butthurt but it ain’t me. You’re just being gross and weird so I reacted accordingly.
I appreciate the attempt to deflect from your outrageous accusation though.
Lol what a weird set of individuals in this thread .
I will always think that shitty people shouldn’t breed. Because they shouldn’t. And anyone who wants to confront me about that is a fucking moron
Yeah. Real zany. Now kindly fuck off
So you’re fine calling others trolls after one comment but when that happens to you your feelings are hurt? How much of a crying snowflake can you be, idiot?
Don’t stalk me, troll
Don’t be a buffoon then, deal?
Leave me alone.
“You’re the reason Trump was elected” is most definitely a troll. His accusation was pretty accurate from where I’m sitting. All he said was “it’s not cool to pick on kids” and you flew off the handle.
Glad to see someone is being reasonable
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
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?)The “evidence” here is pretty sketchy, but I believe it, for two reasons.
-
It’s extremely on brand for a Trump to do this. Decrying [X] publicly while getting it for yourself is basically all he has ever done. Look to the covid vaccines for a convenient example. In addition, Trump thinks being tall = being important (just look at the six inch lifts he wears in his shoes) and I have no problem at all believing that he doped up his son with a bunch of drugs to try and turn him into some kind of superhuman.
-
They’ve been making up stories about everyone else for their entire lives. So even if this one is completely made up, what does it matter? What goes around comes around. They’re lucky it’s something as relatively legal and safe as HGH. If we were really going tit for tat on Trump misinformation, we should have mainstream media telling everyone that Barron Trump was raised on an IV drip feed of stem cells, crack cocaine and blended up white babies. That would be closer to actually tasting some of their own medicine.
Alas(?) lefties don’t really want to play that game. They generally find misinformation to be distasteful. Which I don’t blame anyone for. I’m just tired of one “team” being bound by rules and one “team” just doing whatever the fuck they want constantly with zero oversight. If we aren’t going to implement oversight then we’ll both end up in the mud together.

The turd doesn’t fall far from the ass.
That’s unfortunate. I still didn’t pick him on him in term 1. He was a kid. I imagine he’s older now and becoming a fairer target, however.
I imagine he’s older now and becoming a fairer target, however.
He hasn’t put himself in the spotlight much, at least as far as I can tell. If he steps up, though, he’s fair game to be knocked down.
You’re the reason Trump was elected.
Nah, you can’t pick who your ancestors are. But once he’s a thinking human and chooses to act like an entitled little prick like the rest of the family, then I’ll judge him.
Sure, but I will bet real money you’ve never talked to someone as rich as that kid will be once he’s an adult. And seen how they think.
That makes anyone who gives them the benefit of the doubt naïve.
Why the fuck do you think Dauphins were killed during the reign of terror in France, it’s because they can’t be fucking left alone. France turned out socialist as hell thanks to killing off those dregs.
Because I won’t pick on an 8 month old?
I had no trouble shitting on Ivanka. I didn’t realize how critical infants were to the plan.
(Troll better next time. You lack subtlety)
Nope, you are. People like you give anyone the benefit of the doubt. You probably thought Biden was doing an ok job too. Fucking lunatic.
Wow you are an angry, small person!
For someone who calls themselves LandedGentry that vision sure checks out, how’s the view from up on that high horse?
Credit where credit’s due. You put the note about trolling to work. Later fuckwit. Feel free to have the last word, I’m sure it’s very important to you.
It’s kind of normal for families to celebrate month-birthdays of babies.
Look, I know you’ve been given enough downvotes so I won’t add to them but this is just not true.
I have what most people would consider a metric fuck tonne of kids and I love the ever loving shit out of every one of them but never once have we celebrated their 8th month of existence.
None of my friends or family have ever done anything so utterly weird either.
It’s just weird. So weird that I question the validity of the original post.
Its not a birthday if its not the day you were born. I can see celebrating it though.
I have never said “happy birthday” outside of a proper year change. Marking the months isn’t the same.
Yeah but I didn’t call my don’t 8 months his “birthday” for exactly this reason
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.
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.
I also feel the need to add that it doesn’t matter whether or not you fuel the right wing attacks. They have a persecution complex. They make shit up if they have to. Nothing made them angrier than the fact that the Obamas were a happy family, so what did they do? They attacked his wife and kids relentlessly anyway. Then they turn around and say “the radical left” are so mean.
It’s not about truth. It’s about fueling the fire and serving red meat 24/7. They will do it with or without your help.
That’s true regardless, but when they say “Look how absurd the left is being,” it’s better when they don’t have examples like this to point at.
The Internet is a big place. They will always find an extreme example for whatever they want, and if they can’t find one, some right wing grifter will make one up for them. I understand the concept of taking the highroad and all of that, and I generally do, but it is not her kid’s birthday and it is not some huge political step to go “that is not how birthdays work.” You’re acting like he called her a dumb c***.
Did you ever say “happy birthday” to them on those months? Because I sure didn’t. That would be very weird. She did that because she’s weird. It’s literally not her kid’s birthday.
This also wasn’t some text to the family group chat. This was whoring out her infant son to the world on social media to look human for a second while she and her family work to dismantle a country.
I feel bad for Theodore, honestly. I get what you’re saying, we shouldn’t knock them just for doing every day things. But this was unusual and frankly I have no more sympathy for anyone with the last name Trump who isn’t a child during all of this
Did you ever say “happy birthday” to them on those months?
I honestly don’t remember, but it’s entirely possible we said “Happy 8 month birthday!” I didn’t tweet about it, but I didn’t tweet at all.
Otherwise, I agree with you completely, I just think when we’re sending American children to death camps, the first (third?) family’s social media habits aren’t on the list of hills to die upon.
I got plenty of personal attacks for them.
If I speak up too loudly my wife and son have to flee the country.
How’s that? Have I earned it? DO YOU MFERS HEAR ME
That’s a valid reason to attack them. Like, physically. Not that I’m suggesting or condoning violence, but they are coming for our freedom. They aren’t doing it in tweets of baby pictures.
The attacks are personal, the whole family are evil fucking Nazis.
Yes, which is a good reason to hate them. Posting baby pictures is not a good reason to hate them.
Sure but we don’t hate the Nazis because they played card games.
That’s stupid and makes no sense.
I celebrate every occasion that the child’s age doubles, starting from the first second.
I celebrate every prime number.
I’ll allow it.

See? Much more sensible. You get loads of front-loaded precious moments, and then some very relevant milestones later on in life, only requiring about one third of the overall celebrations!
Found the programmer.
To be fair, I wasn’t trying to hide.
It is win your tripping balls off bubby’s coke
The entire family is dumb as rocks.
It’d be hilarious if daddy dumb dumb wasnt a cult leader with so much power.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.
Teddy may have turned 8mo in that meme, but you sir/madam turned 1yo today (on Lemmy). So happy cake day to you!
Ha! Thanks
