Dear friends. I love you. I know you’re scared. I know you’re maybe grasping at straws right now. I understand. That said, if I see any of you suggesting pennyroyal as a DIY abortion, I am gonna lose my shit so hard that God Almighty won’t be able to find my shit afterward.

I learned from a coworker whose husband is paralyzed that Jorts has now transcended Twitter and “buttering the cat” is now the term for ablest “help.” As in “are you coming up with real solutions or are you just buttering the cat.” I hope you’re proud of yourself, Twitterverse.

1/There is a lot of hope and denialism going on in QAnon communities ahead of inauguration day so I will try and capture some of them throughout the day, and as the acts of President Trump are enacted and decoded for secret meanings.
