to reiterate, I absolutely don’t blame anyone for feeling helpless and depressed right now - it’s an utterly rational way to feel - but I am saying that it’s gonna be important for us to do what we can to help motivate others to maintain hope in this moment
I'll do what I did after Dobbs. Give people a little time to get their heads back together. I am pretty resilient, but I admit to being gut gut punched by how bad this decision was.
Hope never did anything except encourage people to do jack shit until the knife is at their neck. I don’t want people to feel ‘Nope’ i want them to be angry. I want them to do something.
There is more freedom and clarity now to know who allies and enemies are.
NY Times has spent their day after the ruling focusing not on that, but Biden is old. Clarity. I'm pumped up and going to volunteer this fall for some candidates way down the ballot.
anyone who needs it should log off and spend some time in nature if you can. it's healthier than doom posting and better for you. and yes, I learned this lesson the hard way.
