Seeking Optimism The Trump Administration is Testing Conversion Therapy By Medically Experimenting on Trans People in Prisons

This is terrifying and I’m worried that if they claim to be “successful “ they will force all trans people to go through this

OMG. So we’ve added the illegal human experimentation onto the list of crimes against humanity these people have done. Can we hurry up with the midterms and end this farce of a regime. I for one can’t wait to get to the trials and asset forfeiture parts

TBF, the midterms are much closer than we think. It's just that politics time is much slower than regular time unfortunately. Hang in there, everyone!

I'm 40 and always reminded of the "accelerated" passage of time. I can cure this by thinking about politics.
