it's lost in the sea of assaults on trans rights, creating a recession with horrible inflation, and people getting shipped to El Salvador, etc, I feel like I'm the only person who feels like this is a loss, a huge amount of harm.
he killed HOW much land which will never be the same?

Tonight’s #drawing morphed from “necromancer dragon” through “powerful half dragon hobgoblin” to “feathered arctic dragon.” Posting now to cheer up some.
when I'm actually happy, I'm so involved in what I'm doing there's little or no meta level of "am I happy right now?"
whereas being unhappy for me always is about disconnection. Something I have to sit out, or stuff I need to do for Better People, to get to things I actually *want*. By definition this solves towards feeling more pessimistic than the situation actually *is*, if that one makes sense?

Imho the "greatest" thing about the USA is how over our entire history African-Americans have achieved greater and greater measures of equality. (We've still got a long way to go and I actually think hope this is just one of those BAD steps backwards like all the bullshit in the 1920s. But still, compare how far we've made it together compared to say, Romani, Basques, Catalans and Bretons in Europe.)
the *second* greatest thing about us is that as an inherently hybrid nation, we're not anchored to any one set of traditions.
the *third* greatest thing about us is our national parks.
And I could go down the list, but you get the picture; I feel that *literally everything great or good* about the USA has been thoroughly crapped on by this Administration.
Lots of random gunk, but some drawings and cooking talk too. Obsesses about DnD and related topics. Left-leaning/profoundly frustrated politics. Black lives matter; trans rights are human rights.
