Worms
Lower lifeforms, all of 'em
And so it begins. 45 is already stocking his potential cabinet with some of the lowest lifeforms around. While the worst of the bunch is, arguably, Matt Gaetz, 45’s pick for Attorney General — who allegedly committed statutory rape of a minor — I wanted to highlight the special insanity of having Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. potentially in charge of Health and Human Services. Besides his disavowing of nearly all medical science, RFK Jr. (and, I’m guessing, his brain worm) has mused about getting rid of mental health medications, including the use of stimulants for people with ADHD, and sending the erstwhile users of said medications to “wellness farms.” There, without access to phones or computers or tablets, the — patients? guests? inmates? — would spend a few years being “reparented,” farming organic foods instead of using the medications that actually help them.
I was diagnosed with ADHD back in June, and I’m finally on a stimulant. It’s been life changing. Because I take a stimulant, I’m already looked at like I’m a criminal every time I pick up my prescription at the pharmacy. But I prefer that over being sent to Camp Brain Worm and not having my medication at all.
