I am definitely with you, this is awful. I am a woman in a country that just voted to disregard me. I will be trying to zoom in and focus on what I can control, but the oppressive reality is going to demand more and more of my attention. Stress will kill a lot of us. Lack of medical care will kill a lot of us. I am not giving up, but this is a huge loss for everyone and everything I care about. I love you guys. I want to love my fellow Americans, but the dissonance is painful. Thanks for the post. I was feeling very alone with the outcome, but I know millions will weep when they wake up.

This almost reads like you think the republicans would do anything about gun violence. But you must know they don't give a single shit about your children unless they can fuck them.

That's really cool. Glad to know we stopped the spread... of something.

Hahaha, I have the same one. It generally sounds awful but IS fun to mess around with.

This is wrong, what you have written here is wrong.

I had never heard this term, 'sod-turning' before. It means ground-breaking, like at the start of construction.

Wow, that just makes me sad. I know they both did monstrous things to our society, but their tone in that debate is so far removed from our current xenophobic constant. Really just highlights how far the overton window has shifted, but doesn't make me change my mind about the current options being Nightmarish v. Palatable v. Impossible.

Tagging along to say the same. We were doing grain-free until our vet told us it can lead to enlarged hearts. Be careful out there, ten years ago grain-free WAS our vet's recommendation.

I appreciate you taking the hit and also your elaboration. My sis and I were planning to see it in theater, but maybe we'll wait to stream if it's a long 3 hours.

As the only person in my public-facing job to never stop masking, I feel you. Still get random aggression from strangers about it, but will just half-heartedly mention how lucky they are to have not lost anyone personally. Most people I know are missing some family since the pandemic.

Wow, thanks for sharing the video. Creepy as heck animations, but very apt.

Great compassionate discussion.
