Things have just got a lot more difficult . Here’s what I think . I had no control over what just happened . None . But I do have control over how I will react to it . And I am not going to give up on the beautiful and the good , the grip on my dreams just got tighter .
Love that moment in Lord of the Rings when Frodo sees flowers growing on the statue of an old king and says, “They cannot conquer forever.” Whatever comes, whatever fresh horrors tomorrow brings, a new day will come. Until then, we continue the fight.
@silverpebble@cmehrenkreutz I'm Irish. We aren't a NATO member and yet still I still fear what happens to it under Trump. That and so much more. I guess I never should have read Woodward's books. I'd take lack of awareness over the fear.
@cmehrenkreutz@silverpebble Those Americans had to read it though and the amount of reading time I put into the election and I'm not even a citizen 👀. Yip. I am scared.
@cmehrenkreutz@silverpebble The scary thing is that yes the US voted but how much of the world will pay for their choice and in what ways? That man will be in charge of nuclear weapons 👀
America, are you serious? HOW many millions of you voted for a s*xually predatory felonious wannabe dictator? This is a dark day. Sending so much love to those who voted for Harris-voted for good. I can’t imagine how you must be feeling. Deeply horrifying. I’m so so sorry.
@AmandaFenton@silverpebble I really want to believe in this tweet so much but looking at the other races there is a whole lotta red. And even if Harris does win, the visual for a 'stolen election' bid and a horrid prolonged fallout is there. There's no way there isn't a plan for a race this tight.
