    I agree, optics wise having a conjunctival bleed when you’re trying to pretend you are not too old is bad timing (great comedic timing though). Just like saying only god could make you drop out and then getting covid19.

    I’m just saying human bodies are funny things and that your eye spontaneously filling with blood is humorously both benign and the kind of meaningless thing that can just happen.

    Had it happened to someone like Jeremy Corbyn for example, you’d get endless articles about how medically unfit he is, which would be false. (For reference this happened in September 2019 when Biden was still demented but not the shambling husk he is today).
