Anger is an energy

I am angry that I have to go through ANOTHER FUCKING FOUR YEARS of this bullshit.
I am angry that several of my friends and family have to go through ANOTHER FUCKING FOUR YEARS of this bullshit.
I am angry that A has to deal with the outcome of deep-seated misogyny AGAIN.
I am angry that people would rather have a fucking moron clearly showing signs of onset dementia and pretend he's the poster boy for patriotism porn than vote for a woman who clearly outclasses him on several levels.
I am angry that so many LGBTQ+ people are terrified and unsure this morning.
I am angry that I have to realign MY OWN FUCKING LIFE to deal with ANOTHER FUCKING FOUR YEARS of this bullshit.

I am angry and I really fucking hate it.

If it's any consolation, there may not be another four years for any of us.

If anything, I refuse to be nihilistic, and they're just incompetent *enough* not to set the world on fire and only make things miserable for *everybody*.
If anything, there are those willing to not play by the rules and make it nearly impossible for that to happen, and that's what I'm placing my bets on.

I may have expressed myself inelegntly.
I'm not suggesting wanton nihilism.
But the world is alrady on fire; however, you do seem to have an idea of what to do about, and I don't want to talk you out of that.

No worries! I may have jumped the gun a bit as nihilism tends to run rampant for the first couple of days after something like this. ;)
If anything, I've learned over the years that the best I can do is to be my true self despite everything. The plus there is that it occasionally pisses off the rigid conformists! :)
