I'm usually upbeat, positive, and see the good in anything. Sadly this is how I feel right now. I can't believe we live in these times, that we elected this POS again, and this time there are no guard rails and a scant two weeks in things are burning all around.

Keep your positive attitude Dash. He's gonna screw up royally. I can't believe he'll last the 4 years. Keep fighting. We all need to. Goodness always wins in the end. 💙

margej826.bsky.social•30 days ago

You’re not alone. Being retired I’m terrified as many of my friends. We Need to fight in anyway we can that gives us a sense of purpose. Stay Strong 🥰

kateretired.bsky.social•31 days ago

I feel the same way. I’m overwhelming sad, but also extremely angry.

andersoncheri.bsky.social•31 days ago

Feel the same, Dash. Indiana is a red state and both State and Federal officials spout the maga line, so there will be no movement. I have written, called but there in never any response. I may be an old fogie, but I am a liberal, forward-thinking old fogie.

carima2.bsky.social•31 days ago

Totally agree, Dash

carima2.bsky.social•29 days ago

This my make you feel a little better…

jersgal.bsky.social•30 days ago

Right there with you,
Dash. I'm sad and disgusted at the same time. I don't want to listen to the news...but I feel that we must so that we know what's going on.
Musk having personal and financial info on citizens is frightening.
How much damage will Trump do before he stopped...IF he ever is?

jersgal.bsky.social•30 days ago

Before *he's* stopped

dyan222.bsky.social•30 days ago

Same, geez. Unimaginable.😣

hayjuju.bsky.social•31 days ago

I so hear you my friend, today I’m really struggling. Sending you a hug.🫂

grwenelaine.bsky.social•30 days ago

I still believe good wins over evil. It’s taking more energy to think like that with all that’s happened but for me it’s not a choice, it’s a must, it’s survival.

lyndishere.bsky.social•31 days ago

Same, I'm in a red state and have no idea what's ahead.
I'm shocked that nothing is being done!

keeli.bsky.social•31 days ago

I’m right there with you. It took 3 1/2 years to climb out of a black hole then this happened. It’s a battle every day. Hang in there because if you can than I can than we can and so on and so on😇

dianademarest.bsky.social•30 days ago

Something to be thankful for:

birch3.bsky.social•30 days ago

You’re not alone Dash. I try to remind myself each day that if I’m overcome with sadness & anxiety, then I’ve only given them what they want. So I try to focus on the positive as much as possible. I figure love & kindness, people like you, are their krypton. And I smile a little more 😉

sbwordmuse.bsky.social•30 days ago

😡🤬

forced2laugh.bsky.social•30 days ago

I am also having issues myself. Everyday is more,I am trying to not listen but it is happening! Unknown times is hard with anxiety. Stay strong Dash, that's all we can do!!

whatthefuckshauna.bsky.social•31 days ago

I get it. As a Canadian, I feel it too. He is a really terrible person, just a shell of a human. It is alarming how many people will find that appealing.

colleengar.bsky.social•30 days ago

I feel the same way.
It is heartbreaking.
It really is hard to be positive right now.

k333ers.bsky.social•31 days ago

It's sad to see from the other side of the Atlantic, what is happening to a Great Nation. Remember Brexit was The UK's Trump moment & the raiding of the Public Purse here By Boris Johnson & his cronies. Debt tripled in a time of austerity 🤷‍♂️. A compliant Press is all they need. Murdoch etc!

gallaecian.bsky.social•31 days ago

He wasn’t elected. The election was stolen by Moscow and Muskrat. Just ask all the IT experts that advised Harris.

What is happening now is a coup. #france1788 NOW!

maggienerziribarne.bsky.social•31 days ago

Me too!

They are Vandals, like those that sacked Rome, but these vandals wear suits.

💜💜💜

conniefehr.bsky.social•31 days ago

It’s exactly the same with me, Dash. I find I’m not as social, cause I don’t want to be a downer. I believe the last words to finish that are wtf.

petrichor666.bsky.social•31 days ago

Perfectly said! 😑💔😢That’s me too.

tnrefugee.bsky.social•31 days ago

What enrages me is that we’re going to have to live with the maga mentality for at least the rest of my lifetime.

burrleanne.bsky.social•31 days ago

Same here Dash - hopefully things will be ok for you guys.

hereinandyland.bsky.social•30 days ago

It just sucks right now. Feels like he's been in office for 6 months already... ugh

minnejac.bsky.social•31 days ago

Yes indeed. USA has made a mess. People like us must find ways to cope

sfarewell.bsky.social•30 days ago

Hugs from your Canadian friend

rachelj47127149.bsky.social•30 days ago

I can understand why. Sending love and strength your way

deborahg822.bsky.social•28 days ago

If it was a band we’d call it The Motley Coup.
It’s disastrous on a whole new level we’ve never experienced.

aldamar.bsky.social•30 days ago

Me too, Dash. It’s hard to be upbeat and really hard to motivate others. I think this is going to be a long haul to resist and claw our way back to any semblance of decency. Take the time to grieve because our country has changed. Grief is appropriate now. 🫂🥹🫶🏻

Solidarity from 🇨🇦

cottonportgal.bsky.social•30 days ago

I completely understand your sentiments, Dash. My heart aches for our nation. Before my father passed away in 1975, he made a chilling prediction that our country would be destroyed by internal forces. It pains me to witness how correct he was, considering he fought for this country tirelessly.
