Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Finally caught up after the election.
I just don't know what to do with myself. My clever plan of just getting through this anxiety until Clinton won has been thwarted.
I've had no work to do since the election, so I've spent the last two weeks reading or napping. But a big work project is coming my way soon, so maybe that will help.
Yeah, I don't need that in my life any more than I need racist apologists in my life.
Word.
Personally I would just stare at the person who lectured you and aggressively post more cute dog pictures in "they're good dogs brent" style: [link]
What I'm getting is that the only activism that counts is the activism posted on social media.
How else can you get likes and hairpats for your good works?
Random: I am assuming that it's Google Translate making my coworkers greeting to a customer whose first name is Jesus read "Hello Lord Jesus" but it is making me laugh.

Sheesh. Twitter and Facebook did not exist in Dr. King's day, and he still managed to get a lot of shit done. The people talking shit about you for not expressing your social activism on social media would do well to remember that.
shrift, thank you for bring that into my life. I shall endeavor to post more dog photos in that manner.
I feel guilty I can't do more. And I'm so angry at the people who let this happen--protest voters, non-voters, "time for a change, but I'm not *really* a racist" voters. I've never felt so separate from the place I live like I do now. I'm super grateful that you're all here and this place exists.
Tep, I'm afraid I'd mention Dr. King and I'd get a blank stare.
-t, I'm imagining the power of the Holy Spirit zipped through the internet to make that correction. It's the dawn of a new age.

I mean, I know you know this, but that is 100% pure, Grade A bullshit.
Maria, I think it's fine to have your wall be whatever you need it to be. The most important thing we can do now is act, donate money, make the phone calls. That said,

This is hurtful. I am terrified for my family and others in harm's way. Expressing my rage and frustration is the only way I'm making it through these days - and by a fucking thread.

Yes, this and, also you posting about your rage and fear allows me to easily say I hear you and I share your rage and fear, for whatever that is worth. Of course, it's on me then to try to figure out what I can actually do to turn my feelings into action in whatever way I'm able.
