Are you okay?

[anon59592690]

I hear you. Today is too fucking much and I live thousands of miles from the latest horror.

Vent away, do what it takes.

I’m already a couple of drinks deep with more coming because FUUUCCCKKK

What a shitty fucking timeline.

Hug for you and the other mutants

[anon23281680]

I will be ok. But like @anon97585346, I’m so angry and hurt. The more I hear about the murder at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, the angrier I get. The police were not just incompetent but actively cruel to the parents and their cowardice cost the lives of children.
Between the climate, rising fascism, the revoking of uterus bearing people’s civil rights, the transphobia, the eroding of hard-won LGBTQ+ rights, and the outright callous fuckery of my state’s elected officials, I feel so helpless. The kids murdered and traumatized is hitting me extra hard because just yesterday I had to enroll my kid in kindergarten.
I want to stay. I like my city and my house. I want to fight and vote. We’re white, cis, and hetero with a child showing all the signs of being cis too.* We have so much privilege and I want to use it. But fuck fucking fuck. Somehow moving to Canada is seeming so much more necessary
*I told her she’d always be my daughter no matter what she did or didn’t do. Then corrected myself and said she’d always be my child, that if she decided she was a boy or not a girl that would be fine. I was told in no uncertain terms she is a girl, thank you very much.

Thank you for the hugs and kind words, they are appreciated.

@anon23281680, I can not begin to understand how it must feel having a child about to enter school in a time like this. I wish you the best and hope we as a society can use our collective hurt to take action against this for once, though I too am viewing Canada as an increasingly likely necessity. Be well and best wishes.

I see the cartoon’s called Poorly Drawn Lines but nonetheless ‘mouse’ looks like a koala-mouse hybrid to me.

[anon59592690]

Maybe don’t overthink a cartoon with a smoking bird…

[jyoti]

Lol. I thought the bird was eating something!
