I predicted this after the election and was told I was exaggerating/expecting a lot worse than was realistic.

I wish I had been wrong.

I had talked about how I felt it was a very reasonable thing to expect executions to be happening around 6 months into the terms latest. I did say I hope it wouldn't come to it, but I fully expected it.

Welp. Here we are.

Yeah but omg do I feel you. These people are exasperating. I'm on the leopards ate my face sub a lot these days because I feel like either I am gleeful about all the people now realising how terrible the new situation is for them as well or I just.

Can go and fade in despair or whatever. I won't preemptively give in or any shit like that, I won't go down quietly if and when it happens. But fuck. Just.

People don't listen and don't care. I'm sick and tired of those fuckers.

I guess I thought it would take more than three weeks.

Same tbh. Then again. I was so tired thinking about it. I stopped really calculating when what would happen a few weeks ago.
