I woke up at 2 am and couldn’t help but look. Couldn’t get back to sleep until 4, but it’s all just been ‘how did this happen? How could Americans not see all those signs as bad?’
Because most of us are arrogant, short-sighted, stupid, greedy, and have no empathy.
At this point I know I need to move to a blue as fuck state, or maybe emigrate to somewhere with better enshrined lgbt rights, universal healthcare, and legal weed, like say Mexico.
I was talking about that with @[email protected] yesterday. So many Americans see Star Trek episodes where soulless computers run everyone’s life or people are forced into suicide booths for the enjoyment of the elite or the Roman Empire runs the world with an iron fist and they think those all sounds like great ideas.
I’m numb too. I’m having a hard time processing it. I woke up in a completely different country/world.

(I’m kidding but only just barely.)
We are a minority. 🤷♂️
To be a serious Star Trek fan means you see way beyond countries and current politics.
That isn’t something most humans are good at.
It maybe will always feel bad for us to exist in this uncaring universe where the majority seems to care only about what immediately affects them.
To have a kind and open heart maybe just has this cost. I wish I could offer more.
