Gud, I'm glad she's doing better. I hope you find the support you need for her and for all of you.
Xander: Just once I'd like to run into a cult of bunny worshippers. Anya: Great. Thank you very much for those nightmares.

Gud, I'm so glad to hear she's on the mend. How utterly terrifying the whole experience must be.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Oh, Gud. I hope you can take a few deep breaths now.
Peace

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Gud, so glad.

With regard to Trump supporters- my very analytical, smart, and libertarian conservative friend had this to say. I don't even know what to say. "I wanted to cut some debate video to illustrate to the skeptics why I say Trump dominated Hillary. I haven't had time to install software and everything, it's been crazy here. And reading the transcript filters out Trump's strongest traits - his demanding tone, the way he interrupted to correct the record every time she fibbed, the way she came off as fake and polished vs his perfect representation of the average American with an opportunity to face down someone guilty of creating the mess we're living in, etc. He completely nuked the formalities of a political debate in the midst satisfying way, pushing through the beguiling tone of professionalism that real politicians hide behind. He made it raw. and she was visibly uncomfortable facing down her career of failures, shifting in her stance, speechless, looking down at her feet, forcing a fake looking plastic smile."

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
why I say Trump dominated Hillary
Interesting choice of words.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Aside from everything else about that, "his perfect representation of the average American" is the thing I've never been able to understand. The average American is an undereducated racist asshole! I want the President to be better than that!!

In other news, I don't know if you all listen to the Another Round podcast, but they have a sponsor that might be of interest! Talk Space - it's apparently an online therapist, so you don't have to go in, and it's pretty cheap. Anyway, maybe worth checking out for people who can't get to see someone.
