On a day like today we have 2 emotional choices: get depressed and cynical, or motivated and inspired. I’m going with my late father’s voice in my head: “Don’t let the bastards get you down, little sister.” I’ll give myself an hour to scream into a pillow & then get back to work.

Will any of your screaming be because you support a party that is incredibly hypocritical? Did any of those videos showing Dems supporting violent protests, using the word ”fight”, and spreading a lie about the “Fine people” statement impact you at all?

Maybe people should be cynical! They are already depressed. I don’t really understand how to get “inspired” by this level of hypocrisy

That same message, coming from my late mother’s voice, is in my head but with every passing day it gets harder and harder to heed.

Love your attitude Marianne. I might let the bastards enjoy themselves for a while, then I send them to hell, and go back to my happy self. Morals, good values, decency, integrity, kindness, will always prevail. No amount of money can buy that.

Scream about what? Acquittal? Dear darling, either Trump is NOT GUILTY or you are NOT LIVING IN A DEMOCRACY. It cannot be any other way.

I'm even more inspired and optimistic than ever... that I'll get out of this shitty country before trump gets re-elected or before Biden implements Trump's agenda
Replying to @marwilliamson
while also honoring how deeply painful this yet another blow is to our brothers and sisters of color who brought Biden for us. I’m sorry.

Lets us know how that puts food on the table for millions of kids. Roofs over their heads. Get on cable TV Marianne, challenge these assholes who don't protect. Be a voice for us!!!
Some people will do the first, and then the second. They just need a moment to process and recover.
