chocolatepotOkay.
I've gone from being in shock to being depressed to being angry to being passionate. I've spilled a lot of digital ink getting into arguments with leftists, and while I could probably vent some more if I felt like it right now, I am officially putting that behind me (no more engaging with people who think "Clinton would definitely have won if she'd engaged more with the Rust Belt", just thoughtful discussions) and concentrating on the future. Some of the concentrating on the future is also angry and passionate because it looks like a lot of terrible things are coming down the tracks, but instead of just sharing articles and thoughts on social media, I really want to get properly involved. I set a monthly $5 donation to Planned Parenthood, the Southern Poverty Law Center, and the ACLU, and sent my info to the national, state, and local Democratic organizations for volunteering ... but it doesn't feel like enough.
