No Words

 

I wish I had something useful to say or link to.

After G.W. Bush was re-elected, I published an essay about focusing on making a difference however we can for whoever we can. But this week, I can’t even endorse that. I know it is true - that many need our help - and I know it won’t always feel this way. 

But this week, I do feel this way. 

I wish I hadn’t been right.

Mourning is appropriate. 

Despair is justified.

Just know:

You are not alone. 

You are loved.

(I still have comics coming up that I scheduled last month. Hopefully some of those will bring you a smile.)

So sorry, for all of you and all of us, as his policies are going to at least affect global trade, alliances, the environment and who knows what sort of conflicts may or may not happen, it's a roll of the dice.

I agree, trying to rationalise, and move forward is not possible at the moment, the fact that that many people chose him over her, is a bigger problem than him, and he's still a tremendous problem. All these people asking where she went wrong... she went wrong by not offering racism, hatred of immigrants, retribution, greed, self-aggrandisement and never ever admitting you're wrong, or you lost. That's what the majority wanted.
