Funerals were held all over the city
The youth bleeding in the square
And women raged as old men fumbled and cried
"We're sorry, we thought you didn't care, oh"
And how does it feel now you've scratched the itch
How does it feel?
And pulled out all your stitches
Hubris is a bitch

my other grounding technique is remembering that the earliest abolitionists & the earliest suffragists had no proof that the world would ever make possible what they fought for and indeed many of them did not live to see it come to pass. and yet they did not succumb to despair so it would be disrespectful to their memory to let it overtake me

"This year we have seen many defining elections all over the world. On November 5th, it is time for one of the most powerful countries in the world - the USA - to go to the polls. It is probably impossible to overestimate the consequences this specific election will have for the world and for the future of humanity.
There is no doubt that one of the candidates - Trump - is way more dangerous than the other. But no matter if Trump or Harris wins, the USA - a country built on stolen land and genocide on indigenous people - will still be an imperialist, hyper-capitalist world power that will ultimately continue to lead the world further into a racist, unequal world with an ever increasingly escalating climate and environmental emergency.
With this in mind, my main message to Americans is to remember that you cannot only settle for the least worst option. Democracy is not only every four years on election day, but also every hour of every day in between. You cannot think you have done "enough" only by voting, especially when both those candidates have blood on their hands.
Let's not forget that the genocide in Palestine is happening under the Biden and Harris administration, with American money and complicity. It is not in any way "feminist", "progressive" or "humanitarian" to bomb innocent children and civilians - it is the opposite, even if it is a woman in charge. And this is of course one example among many of American imperialism. I cannot for my life understand how some can even pretend to talk about humanitarian values, without even questioning their own role in further deepening global oppression and massacres of entire countries.
So, Americans, you must do everything in your power to call out this extreme hypocrisy and the catastrophic consequences American imperialism has on a global scale. Be uncomfortable, fill the streets, block, organize, boycott, occupy, explicitly call out those in power whose actions and inaction lead to death and destruction. Join and support those who are resisting and leading the change. Nothing less will ever be acceptable."
