Yet I miss it. The feeling I have right now is a kind of freeze.

redpainter1.bsky.social•33 days ago

This Sun Tzu quote seems appropriate right now: "It is the unemotional, reserved, calm, detached warrior who wins, not the hothead seeking vengeance and not the ambitious seeker of fortune."

I don’t want to be the person I was 2016-2020. So I’m not, I’m worse now. 🩷

ziroc.bsky.social•33 days ago

I can relate

drinkoftheday.bsky.social•33 days ago

And we're only a couple of days in. Everyone who thought that the 1980s "greed is good" attitude was bad is now realizing that it was merely an appetizer for what we're all eating now. History will recall this time as the most selfish for our country.

sckrys1801.bsky.social•33 days ago

I'm not letting him poison me this time. I fully believe he was part of weakening my autonomic nervous system. So when I got Covid the trauma helped me get Dysautonomia. I won't let him do that again but I will fight back.

The most devious and divisive president in American history.

Bar none.

bellatrixr.bsky.social•33 days ago

Utterly. Extending a hand….

claw51.bsky.social•33 days ago

I can also relate!

vegassteve702.bsky.social•33 days ago

Yep and I was right back there yesterday.

The Bluesky algorithm is on point!

christenczech.bsky.social•33 days ago

I cry-raged last night and grieved what could have been: hope, joy, thismuchcloser to universal healthcare, strong alliances w/other nations, lower healthcare costs, housing, sensible compassionate laws, accountability, jailed seditionists, support for Ukraine & Taiwan, etc. 😩

ksjackson-levine.bsky.social•33 days ago

Yes, since 2015...

godswrath699.bsky.social•32 days ago

Stay angry

debeckert2.bsky.social•33 days ago

My anger and anxiety has never left so now it is at a higher level. It probably won’t go away ever until we get rid of all the bad people in politics

heatherae2003.bsky.social•33 days ago

Perfectly said. It’s all back for me, as well. It’s so disheartening.

ladybird4.bsky.social•33 days ago

I’m grieving, and not even living there. I’m grieving because of the negativity that will spread and we’ll be living it right beside you. It feels like a really dark time.

tempestori.bsky.social•33 days ago

Let your Pain move through you and transmute Loss into Courage in your heart.

You are not alone. We are all hurting. Let your Pain heal you.
🙏❤️‍🔥🙏
Then we fight back.

If we all did one small good thing every time we had that feeling, it might not change the world, but it might start to change how we feel.

Last time, I gave donations to World Central Kitchen whenever I could. It wasn't much, but it was something good I could do.

✌️😎

corkeylee.bsky.social•33 days ago

Agreed, now is the time to do, its all of our duty

“Anger is an energy”

write-or-die.bsky.social•32 days ago

311 should have called the song this instead.

show-me-the-hope.bsky.social•33 days ago

Same. They poison us. But we can resist and we can recover.

86lukem.bsky.social•33 days ago

It's the biggest problem with things that are political. It's a toxic thing at times. I know I sit thinking still to create videos to broaden people's minds to what's out there. So many think there's only one option. They think there's nothing out there for them to find.

deemarie6.bsky.social•33 days ago

There's a bit of despair in there, too, in the pit of my stomach.
Watching less news and reading has helped somewhat.

fwsa.bsky.social•33 days ago

Me too! Still there...the anger.

kathyposey.bsky.social•33 days ago

Yes. I read some, then have to step away. We’ll all be aging exponentially during the traitorous felons reign.

dookielazer.bsky.social•33 days ago

I’ve found social media to be the biggest offender in this. So much is designed to get my attention by angering me. I try to practice discipline and recognize when I’m getting mad, step back, and recognize that this poison is not good for me or productive.

peace-frog20.bsky.social•33 days ago

The felon is like the pair of hideous glasses I never wanted. A deep inner ugliness was awakened in some of my friends and I sadly watched as it twisted them in to people that I can’t believe I shared laughter with. 😢

worldtravelerall7.bsky.social•32 days ago

i feel this

ekremsgirl.bsky.social•33 days ago

Up until yesterday, I was sure I could keep the anger at bay. Today, I realized I was fooling myself. It's worse this time because I already know what kind of damage he can do.

tempestori.bsky.social•33 days ago

Let your rage spur you to action. Let that action transmute Fear into Hope in your heart. Walk on with Hope In your heart and you will never walk alone.

2016-2022 was a living nightmare, it's now going to turn into hell on earth.

gnomecomingqueen.bsky.social•33 days ago

Yes!! The constant, deep, kind of pulling in the pit of my stomach. The heaviness that just sits in my chest, just below my heart- it just won’t stop, there’s no relief. 😢

tempestori.bsky.social•33 days ago

Let your Pain move you to grieve. Let that Grief transmute Loss into Courage in your heart. Walk on with Courage and Hope, and you will never walk alone.

jcatty.bsky.social•33 days ago

I can’t begin to tell you how angry and deeply wounded I feel. I have a lot of work to do to get myself to a place where I can be helpful & not emotionally self-destructive.
I’m really struggling right now.

temari-stitcher.bsky.social•33 days ago

You're not alone. 🫶

atthetippingpoint.bsky.social•33 days ago

l feel exactly the same. l believe he's going to destroy every living thing on the planet.

its-lex-actually.bsky.social•33 days ago

There is only one thing I know about life. It goes on.

flabbytabby.bsky.social•32 days ago

That’s why I cross my fingers and hope, “today is the day…”🤞

brucerey3.bsky.social•33 days ago

Yeah. It’s come back

skyhawkillusions.bsky.social•32 days ago

But did you ever act on it?

countnathrakh.bsky.social•33 days ago

I, on the daily, have to process murderous rage. Mainly because I am nowhere near skilled or hardened enough to kill the people that need killing right now, nor will I ever be.

It is living under a narcissistic abuser. Again.

tempestori.bsky.social•33 days ago

alemancreates.bsky.social•33 days ago

I’m 💯 with you

scottjenkins67.bsky.social•33 days ago

Yeah, I heard Drew Carey could be a tyrant.

Oh, you mean the Orange Clown.

😉

Same. 🫤

diedrichbader.bsky.social•33 days ago

Drew’s the greatest

scottjenkins67.bsky.social•33 days ago

Loved that show. Still miss it all the way down here in Sydney Australia 🇦🇺

Anger and hate aren’t poison if they’re valid.

steve.harbick.com•33 days ago

That hate
That anger
That poison
Don't shy away
It's real
Use it for ALL and OUR good
Love yourself
and others
It's the recognition AND
Empathy
We all deserve

thecoffeygrounds.bsky.social•33 days ago

You're not alone. I have nothing but fury inside me. I'm a laid back jovial fun type of person but every time I look in the mirror all I see is anger. I have to rein it in so it doesn't affect my family and daily life. Practicing RAOK and Pay it Forward, gives me joy on those days of pure dread. 🫶🏻

tammie11.bsky.social•33 days ago

We are no longer that same person. Now we know NOT to react to the absurdity 💪💜🫶🏽

Terrible night filled w revenge fantasies that as i got more exhausted became a little odd
I really doubt I’m ever going to be able to psychically control a meteor

redpainter1.bsky.social•33 days ago

Can we control a meteor and direct it towards Mar-A-Lago?

peterclines.bsky.social•33 days ago

Not with that attitude.

shelloshot.bsky.social•33 days ago

Ah, but what if we all synced up and tried to psychically control that meteor at the same time?

phubar.bsky.social•33 days ago

2 meteors at the same time

bryschmidt.bsky.social•33 days ago

But that's not gonna stop you from trying. If it did, you just wouldn't be your anymore.

leon-skum.bsky.social•33 days ago

Yeah those stupid dinosaurs just got lucky.

wannapeanut.bsky.social•33 days ago

I went crazy dark today. Turned 50. My mom is in the hospital. Again. My city has been fire all around me. My 11 year old daughter has less rights than I did. And people I love, that love her, somehow voted for this.

tempestori.bsky.social•33 days ago

#MediaBlackout not just to #CancelTrump and #TankTheRatings, but to give yourself space to grieve and heal.

We cannot fight while we are still being poisoned by media's lies.

its-lex-actually.bsky.social•33 days ago

They don’t know what love means. Love is more than simple fondness; it’s taking on someone else’s wellbeing as your own sacred charge, and acting to uphold it.

write-or-die.bsky.social•32 days ago

Love is seeing the whole of someone and understanding what makes them tick. Like a watchmaker intimately knows the inner workings of said clock and are acquainted with its unique rhythm.

its-lex-actually.bsky.social•32 days ago

Right. And it’s never assuming that you’ve already seen everything, or that your loved one is the same as you. If you prioritize controlling someone, you have never really loved them.

My mother’s sense of self is so poor that she made mine worse. I would rather have just not had any parents.

write-or-die.bsky.social•32 days ago

First, always seek to understand.

brianterrill.bsky.social•33 days ago

Breathe Diedrich breathe. We got through this once together. We can do it again. This time we're prepared.

sativaplath37.bsky.social•33 days ago

I think that’s what bothers me the most. I’m not the type to go around, wishing death on people or any of that, but that man has changed me.

victorbjohnson.bsky.social•33 days ago

Good days and bad days. Trumpism is a malignant tumor. Treat it as such. Save as much of your energy as you can for the good days, and if bad days require action that is impactful, redirect as required.

sparklepigeon.bsky.social•33 days ago

Yeah, I noticed my pets have picked up my mood. Even though all they get are pets, scritches, treats, love language, and snuggles, they are picking on each other more than usual these last couple of days.

adoltheblue.bsky.social•33 days ago

Hate has left, replaced by Despair. I know this isn’t the final form of our government, but it’s the hell we have to suffer through while those who actually have power to do something watch the creeping death slither inches closer to them.

theferg.bsky.social•33 days ago

That’s exactly how I feel.

smurfsm00.bsky.social•33 days ago

The hope that next week
Could finally be
Infrastructure week

♥️🙏 (I feel ya and agreed and I love you man)

ladygee.bsky.social•33 days ago

Turning off all state media really really helps. 2-3 hours of seeing his face and obsessing over every little thing with pundits making a living off it is useless, makes you feel bad and is a total waste of time.

jay-trotter.bsky.social•33 days ago

I keep thinking of how I’d want to see a protagonist in a story handle this. We’ve all seen movies about people persevering through dark times, and we don’t know how dark things are about to get, but we need to be prepared to be the heroes we’d root for in a movie…take care of those in need.

timinsalento.bsky.social•33 days ago

I’m a 62 year old gay man who has been battling since Reagan in the eighties. This is not what I planned for in retirement and I’m absolutely exhausted. I have no more fight in me.

its-lex-actually.bsky.social•33 days ago

Be outspoken. Be visible. Take what risks you feel you can.

blusoups.bsky.social•33 days ago

I feel all that and terrified

andyralston.bsky.social•33 days ago

Every. Effing. Day. Some new barbarity.
