I think inflation is a huge issue. It was the main reason I felt Trump would win.
Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

As I feared I expect some folks said “oh yeah I’m not voting for him…” and then did in the secrecy of the voting booth.
Not sure any of us can handle four more months of this never mind four more years. Or forever, if he has his way…
(And dear god, if he’s actually losing it, and JD Fucking Vance becomes president??? The travesty…)

Poor M is so frustrated and sad right now. I feel numb and resigned.

Our wings are not tired.
I have to get some sleep. I'm just in shock and hoping for miracles.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Well. I wasn't optimistic. I think I'm numb right now because if I really start processing things I might start to have an anxiety attack like in 2016.
I think what I was afraid of then is going to happen now

Well fuck. And congress is majority GOP, too, so not a single guardrail on that asshole. This is going to suck so badly. And knowing that the majority of voting Americans were like, “Fascism shmascism, my eggs cost too much,” is just the rancid cherry on the top.
