If I may, can I check in your how you’re all doing? How are you feeling today? I have been focused on going through the exit poll data today, seeing where our side succeeded and failed and it’s keeping me pleasantly occupied.

He's still not in office yet. If you want to peacefully protest, might I suggest you do so in the next couple of months..

Was hoping to retire in July. Now I have to rethink it, d/t possible cuts in SS & Medicare. I've been doing this career for 43 yrs (healthcare), I'm weary, just want what's rightfully mine. Plus the 401k will prolly lose value when his economy crashes. Lord help us & our future generations! 🙏

I'm feeling...apathetic. I've disconnected from all that is BAD and I'm secretly hoping that the Dems are working on blowing the lid off the GOP's corruption. I realize this is a coping mechanism, so I guess it's ok?

I’m angry but not stunned. Let’s just get started w the collapse of our democracy so we can get to the other side. I want to hold everyone who voted for Trump accountable for that vote.

Like Judge Learned Hand ( on the bench for 52 yrs, died 1961) " I believe in the eventual supremacy of reason". After every chaotic event the result is more progro gessive. This will be worse before it gets better but when it is over the good will be greater

Hanging in there. In Fairbanks, AK as a vendor at a holiday market. It’s -15. I have a serious job but I make weirdly delicious cotton candy as a side hustle. Because it’s pointless and ridiculous. But, I’m also not skipping my anxiety meds because , damn, this sucks.

I'm still feeling very angry & worried, but I'm doing my best to try & relax & keep doing my part to share & reshare as much information as I can to keep up our fight to save America & our democracy! There is SO much work to do! I do not understand why are our leaders are not stepping up for us!??
