Welcome to American Hell

Watching the collapse of the country in real time.

Welcome to American Hell

Hi,

Today is the day sexual assaulter and alleged rapist Donald Trump officially became president (again).

I was in a meeting for three hours this morning, so I am going to summarise what happened by sharing my friend’s text messages:

"youre not watching the collapse of the country in real time??!!!"
"seeing all these tech ceos on stage is freaking me out"
"maybe 2 black people in the room on MLK day"
"clinton looks like hes gonna die tomorrow"
"he said the word annihilate"
"standing ovation for “im declaring a national emergency at the border”
"Only 2 genders"
"reinstating service members who rejected covid vaccines with back pay"
"maybe this will be good wipe out our armed forced w polio"
"Trump crypto is now available to trade" - "kill me"

So there you go.

Welcome to American hell — which includes all of America’s rich white tech bros, some of whom decided to engage in fascist salutes.

You know, Hitler shit.

Musk did this twice, by the way:

Zuckerberg and Bezos
Elon Musk

Of course while a genocide was perfectly acceptable, 2025 is apparently the year we start extending nazis some grace:

To mark this horrible day there’s a new t-shirt on the Webworm store featuring the man Trump picked to lead US health policy — Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Any profits I make for this will be going to Mutual Aid LA for LA fire relief, and Rainbow Youth in New Zealand.

In case you’re unfamiliar, RFK Jr. attempted to block the Covid-19 vaccine, denies the link between HIV and AIDS, claims vaccines cause autism, planted a dead bear cub in Central Park, and discovered he had a dead worm in his brain.

"R.F.K. Jr. Says Doctors Found a Dead Worm in His Brain The presidential candidate has faced previously undisclosed health issues, including a parasite that he said ate part of his brain."

Webworm’s resident artist Jess Johnson wanted to commemorate today’s craziness on a t-shirt, writing:

“Dearest Worms! God has revealed to us our new overlord. Let him lead us in the purification of our great nation. The weakling David Farrier, devoid of worms and stripped of his power, simps for us now.”
The t-shirt drawing by Jess Johnson featuring a drawling of RFK Jn and the words "RFK Jr. says doctors found a dead worm in his brain"

It ships worldwide and comes in white, pink, blue and grey.

Again — any profits I make for this will be going to Mutual Aid LA and Rainbow Youth New Zealand.

I feel… discombobulated. How do you feel?

David.
