When he won in 2016, it felt like disorienting punch in the gut. I spent so much time trying to convince people what was coming. I had naive hope that our institutions would save us. I had to plead constantly to get people to care for each other and, more importantly, vote.
This is different. We all know what he is. We know what is coming if he survives in power. I feel galvanized and ready to fight.
For now, grieve and prepare. Tomorrow begins the work of being the change we must see in the world.

@Goldkin "galvanized" is a good way to put it. It makes me want to not "fight" -- because what does that mean? -- but actively work towards better, whether through local activism or charity drives for vetted groups. Already trying to sort that out for streams, and figuring out giveaway type things to help power it.
May not kick it in this week while stuff is raw, but soon.
