The road to dead kids is paved with intention. Long story short: in the Chiles v. Salazar case, the arguments in favor of legalizing "voluntary" talk therapy (aka, parents being able to force their children to undergo conversion therapy), which has been proven decisively to not work and which makes children commit suicide TWICE AS OFTEN, do not hold water. Let's explore why.

Selfishly wasting billions of dollars. Accepting bribes from dictators and mass murderers. Taking money from the poor and giving it to the rich. Calling the worst pedophile in modern history his best friend (RELEASE THE FILES!). Emboldening the worst racism, sexism, and social discord in decades. Kidnapping (many) people off the street. Wiping his ass with the law of the land.

Every so often, I have to stop, catch my breath, and remind myself that we're not dead yet. That's fairly good advice for living through a cavalcade of calamities. One of Trump's latest executive orders is sending us back 60 years in the ethics of mental health care as well as teeing up a way to imprison any dissidents or undesirables the administration deems as such.

Hyperbolically? Yes. In reality? Also yes. We're not at the end of the rope yet, but things are dire. Let's get this straight. Our president, who almost certainly won the presidency by virtue of voting manipulation, and who is not accountable to any court order even if it goes against all law and moral sensibility, just got $100 billion in funding for a secret police service…

Somehow, Palpatine the secret police returned. If you've been sleeping under a rock, you won't know that ICE has been conducting raids all over America, and that Trump has just signed an order for TWO THOUSAND members of the National Guard to occupy Los Angeles, California for 60 days (or more) over an overwhelmingly peaceful, if tense, protest. This is a (melo)dramatic show of force, needless escalation, and waste of taxpayer money, like nearly every policy that's wafted out of the Trump administration's various orifices.
