Things that make me happy cry: The internet access code at this hotel is "safe". ;_;

Trauma, politics 

I first learned what being triggered was when I saw Trump's body language in the second debate, and it screwed me up really badly. Scary to realize that that's even more exactly him. D:

Trauma, politics 

Just ran into this quote from Politico, and it's my dad to a T.

"he’ll get mad at a specific staffer or broader situation, unload from the Oval Office and then three hours later act as if nothing ever occurred even if others still feel rattled by it"

He'd regularly explode, then go to the office for hours, even days (sleeping in his chair) and would come home like nothing had happened.

Violence (Poem) 

Made myself write a little something re: Friday today. Not sure I captured it, really, but I tried. >.< zetasyanthis.deviantart.com/ar

I just found a poem that touches depression more deeply than any I've ever encountered. pianoweb.deviantart.com/art/My

Like, seriously, that did some real mental damage as far as feeling safe. >.<

Man, I have to tell you... After what happened to me on Friday, I am way on edge re: personal physical safety. D: Total hypervigilance mode. >.<

Just an FYI, I'm putting my poems up on Deviantart too, since I'm starting to try and reach a wider audience. :)

And here's a new poem that I wrote back in March, but hadn't posted until today. (Gave myself some time to think it over before releasing it, due to the content.)

Two days ago my therapist agreed that I should run for office. She begged me to publish my poetry. Today, I write. Because fuck this mess.

Also, they have sledgehammers now, which pleases me quite a lot. :)

It might take a few years for me to get that going, but I'm starting to work from here on out towards that goal.

On a completely random note, I've finally decided to run for elected office. I'm fucking sick of these so called 'leaders' like the 'Democratic party leadership', etc not standing up for actual humanity. And I'm going to do something about it.
