This woman has captured the hearts of millions

[avengeclintasha]

Thinking about the 80-plus year old woman who voted for the first time because her husband was no longer around to control her and prevent her, the 104-year old woman in detroit who said her last Big life event was voting for Kamala, and the 110-year old survivor of the Tulsa race massacre who voted for Kamala, and the millions of others with similar stories and for my sister and my niece and my mom and so so so many more and how this country has continued to treat them is breaking my heart

Hey guys. It’s okay to process your emotions right now. Feel the disbelief and the anger and the grief. And then remember that your world is not the White House or even all of America but your neighborhood, your family, your friends, your local communities. Get involved on small human levels. Learn to cook tasty meals, support small businesses, volunteer, enjoy the sun. Engage with your favorite fictions for the joy of it. Politicians aren’t bogeymen who can be ever and always present— this time will pass like all others and in the meantime you have the power to root yourself and better the corner of the world you’re in. Be strong, find happiness, and do the things you love with people you love.

A good reminder that not everyone in red states has shit beliefs. Please remember that before you make your jokes about red states being backwards. There’s literally vulnerable groups who are terrified rn

Tapping the sign.

Everything feels awful right now but it isn't really. We still don't officially have a winner, but regardless of how the presidential election ends up, I wanted to take a minute and find what lights I can in the 3 a.m. darkness. Here's what I know:

* Kentucky overwhelmingly rejected an attempt to undermine the public education system by offering private school vouchers:

* Delaware has elected a transgender woman to the House of Representatives, the first out trans person of any gender ever elected to congress:

* For the first time in history, two Black women will be serving in the senate at the same time, and they are only the fourth and fifth Black women ever elected to the senate:

* New York State has passed a constitutional amendment enshrining the rights of pregnant people (including the right to an abortion), LGBTQIA+ people, the disabled, immigrants regardless of legal status, and other at-risk groups:

* Democrat Josh Stein has beaten self-avowed Nazi Mark Robinson to become governor of North Carolina:

That's everything I know off the top of my head. It's not many bright spots, but it's not zero. I'm going to try to find more and I'll add them to the post. It's the only thing I can think of to do that isn't sobbing and throwing up or looking up Canadian immigration rules.

If you know more good news, I encourage you to add it in reblogs.
