silence and occupying my time with crafts and hobbies has been my best way to handle this. i'll be alright and we all will eventually, but i'm not ready to be silly and quirky online. i can't be that support for anybody. i feel defeated.
this election hit me the hardest.
i had 0 expectation or hope because if i chose to feel that way, i'd be even more let down. and even still, i'm heartbroken. i've not cried like this since i lost a family pet.
it's grief.
and i'm grieving over the possibility of a first woman to be president. although i don't strictly identify as a woman, i'm still AFAB, so this was important just like it's been important since 2016.
