    Sorry friend, but in the immortal words of Karen Carpenter: “it’s only just begun!”

    We still face weeks of crippling political analysis, sensationalist reporting about phantom voter fraud, tantrums, recriminations, threats, and histrionics (if Harris wins, and probably even if trump wins his followers will still do this), hand-wringing about the far right’s plans, probably some domestic terrorism, etc.

    But hey, you did your part - you voted. And so did I and many others. We did all we can.

      With depression, I’ll take every win I can get.

      If that is just a small reprieve from the existential dread of a potential Trump win…?

      Or the anxiety over needing to vote today, dealing with the crowds, getting my ballot cast, even with the rest of the shit storm on the horizon…

      I’ll still take what I can get for now.

      I’ll be there when I’m called upon but know that some of us are already fighting our own battles.
