It's devastating.

Completely.

i think i'm still in real denial. I am reeling and I feel a bit like everything I am, the work I do, the way I live, the things I create, has to fundamentally change in response to this, to resist this. I feel so inadequate.

He's an empty vessel -- who knows, for sure, what we'll need to resist? The earliest test, I think, is whether he backs off the hatefulness really, really quickly. And whether he has sense enough not to be captured by the Congressional R's or some of his despicable hangers-on.

He's an opportunist to the core, and may shift with the wind now that he's won. He and his ego are answerable now for actually getting things done.

I admit, I'm clinging to straws here. But hope trumps fear, at least provisionally.

Hey you! Don't disappear on me. Unless you want to, in which case OK, but I will be sad.

I commented more substantively to Aja below and on Pauraque's post. It may be whistling in the wind, but, you know, sufficient to the day . . .

Hope you are well, otherwise. How are you?
