Donald Trump Goes All Q in Ohio

 "There's only one source for this stuff (adrenochrome)...the adrenaline glands from a living human body. It's no good if you get it out of a corpse."

Hunter S. Thompson from the novel, "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas."

Thompson probably came up with the idea of using adrenochrome as a plot device from Aldous Huxley's work, "The Doors of Perception." Huxley compared adrenochrome to mescaline. The problem is Huxley never actually used it. Thompson probably didn't either, but it sounded good in a piece of  fiction if a character did. He made up that part about the drug having to come from a living body simply for shock value. 

Does everyone understand that? Thompson just made it up.

Unfortunately for all of us, the loons who spread the QAnon nonsense seized on this morsel of fiction and are using it as a central part of their dire world vision. According to them, the world elite--an amorphous lot that includes anyone they don't like--traffics children not only to rape them, but to drink their blood in order to get a big hit of adrenochrome. This process is known as adrenochroming children. It is done to ensure those powerful and famous people can achieve immortality.  

Adrenochrome is real. The compound was discovered in the 1950's. It was thought to have something to do with schizophrenia, but there is no definitive proof. It also doesn't have any psychedelic properties. And it certainly doesn't do anything to keep you from aging, or reaching immortality.

So why does any of this matter? We all know the QAon followers are bat shit crazy, right? Well, the former President of the United States, who is running for that office again showed up last week wearing a lapel pin with a Q on it and the words, "The Storm is Coming." This was after he promised there would be violence in the streets, 'the likes of which the country has never seen," if he is indicted for anything.

On Saturday in Youngstown, OH Trump spent his opening remarks blathering on about the stuff he always blathers on about. However, at the end of it Q themed music began to play. He spoke over the sounds calmly, promising the crowd a return to greatness, a return to power, a return to wealth. The audience rose and a large number of them raised their arms at a 45%  angle, then extended their forefingers in the unofficial Q salute. During those moments the political rally had turned into a frightening pagan sacrament. The only things missing were the torches and possibly a cross burning.

A few weeks ago Donald Trump went on social media to say he should be declared the official winner of the 2020 election. he also said the only solution to the 2020 election was to throw out the results and hold a new one. At the time one media wag said, "The more desperate he becomes the crazier Trump acts."

This weekend author, John Wooley told me, "The noose is tightening on Trump." 

Apparently so. Because last week Don Trump was acting as crazy as they come. And if you support him or say you will vote for him now you're going to have to admit you not only believe the last presidential election was stolen, but also that everyone from Tom Hanks to Barack fucking Obama is hooked on adrenochrome.

Hey, it's either that, or you like voting for insane people just for the fun of it.
