As we near the moment of knowing that this nightmare will be over, I’m not experiencing the giddy excitement I expected to feel. I feel more the shock of knowing how close we came to the demise of our democracy, and an almost tearful gratitude that we survived.

If it weren't for the pandemic... I feel Trump would've won

Yes. Like the first few breaths at the end of an apocalyptic disaster movie when the survivors realize they are safe, and it’s finally over....

Still a mountain of shit to clear to get back on the right path. But at least there are glimmers of hope and a route forward

Unless Biden changes things on a fundamental level, he's just going to do the same thing Obama's presidency did: lay fertile ground for the next Trump. We're also entering the darkest winter with a second wave of covid. The fight for 'survival' isn't anywhere near ended.

Not me I’m loving it and see it as a joyful expression of victory over authoritarianism
