You're right. It's shit, and we've all been fucked. We're in for a hellish four years. As of the moment, he's just appointed Elise Stefanik UN ambassador. The consequences may last longer than our lifetimes. I'm a number of years older than you; I may not live to see a woman president. This is not what we signed up for in the 60's when the government PAID ME tuition, room, board, AND a stipend to go to grad school.
But you've got Rachel and Molly and Lexi, and I've got my beloveds. And so did all those German folks in 1933. A hell of a lot of folks are going to die who might not if Harris had been elected. And that could have been otherwise. But read a book called When Things Fall Apart by Pema Chodron who is an American named Deirdre Something, if you haven't already. It's not very long. Its message in a nutshell is Rest in Uncertainty Cheerfully and See What Happens. It's not anodyne self-care advice; it doesn't tell you to stay positive and look on the bright side. It tells you to start with a broken heart and then it tells you how. We're neck deep in the big muddy, and nothing else has worked. Love to everybody who reads and writes this Gene Pool.
martha baine - totally agree, especially about all those jewish german folks with families and dough and art and jewelry to protect them. we are in for more than four hellish years. i cannot imagine that our future elections will be very different from putin's and hungary's. why should they be? cheaters cheat and liars lie and thugs thug. f them.
