I’m one of the rare Gen X who has been voting, organizing, and basically running uphill against a storm wind in a red state for decades. I’m not even capable of giving a true read on one of those pain scales for how much I hurt because it has been so chronic for so long.
Hang in there, I feel your pain. We can overcome this if we stick together. At least you're not alone in this. We just need to organize and come up with a plan to win.
That is part of the tactic in pay right now. We got hit with a tsunami of BS. And the natura reaction is to be stunned. Fight that urge and get back in it. Much of what is being pressed by them can be fought. Birthright took a hit from a judge already. And trump's narcissism means we can hurt him.
I hear ya ReSiSter
But this is THE moment in history !
We must cause some
#goodtrouble
John Lewis's words this time its sos lets gather in all the streets discuss the state of our democracy
And what to do about it
This can seriously affect your health. I got so stressed after the election I got shingles. Most painful headaches I’ve ever had. Learning to pace things and not let myself stress to that level again. Finding ways to positively channel that fear and anger into change.
OK Everyone - pay close attention to what’s behind Door #2.
Because while we’re all worked up about Birthright Citizenship, and Greenland, and the Canal, and The Gulf of Mexico, and all the other BS, we need to ask the question - What’s all this BS distracting us from? What’s really going on?
And yet we still need to persevere.
It sucks, I long for the days when I was confident my government was functioning properly and I could go days without watching the news without worrying my government wasn’t going to attack me.
I honestly think this is reason the response to the Trump 47 inauguration was so much more muted than the response to the Trump 45 inauguration. Eight plus years years of being appalled by him are cumulatively exhausting.
Every time we turn on the news, we have to brace ourselves for flagitiosis actibus ad nauseam. I remember feeling an actual physical lightness when Biden took office and I could count on the president of the United States not actively trying to burn it all to the ground. Now the heavy dread is back.
So Democrats-- let's stop whining- let's get our s*** together and start voicing our dissent and let's start doing something to stop this Authoritarian take over!!!!!
This. I had to mute the T and R words for a week for my mental health. I just need a week of nature photos and silliness. Guard your mental health- we need to make it through the long haul !

Love your posts BTW. They’re always a bright spot for me.
