What to do about that grief? Feel it and then heal it.
Connect with friends, family or colleagues who feel the same way you do. That's approximately HALF the country. You are NOT alone. Support each other.
Turn away from the news for awhile and give yourself a break.
Then.... get back up. That's right. Rise up, American Bitches!
Find a cause you believe in, whether it's at a local, state, or national level. Give your time and/or money to an organization that needs you. Volunteer to make your country a better place because you are NEEDED.
For those of you thinking Canada is a better option, let The Mistress remind you that it wasn't that long ago that this guy was the Mayor of Toronto. And Canada has this guy too. So as you can see, the grass isn't necessarily greener north of the border.
So take time to heal, then rise up and remember...
LOVE TRUMPS HATE!
These things come in cycles. This too will peddle off somewhere.

DeleteI can't tell you how your kind words are. I have also heeded your advice about discussing with friends, but the second Hendricks bottle hasn't had answers.
ReplyDeleteMISTRESS MADDIE: Perhaps you’d be better off consulting Johnnie Walker, Jim Beam, Jack Daniels or José Cuervo.
DeleteI consult Mr Magners regularly but he just encourages me to forget it all. Jx
DeleteJON: It’s that old Irish proverb… may you never forget what is worth remembering, or remember what is best forgotten.
DeleteGood morning America.
ReplyDeleteLX: Don’t even think about it.
DeleteYou are perfect and on point and absolutely correct, sweetpea! xoxoxox
ReplyDeleteSAVANNAH: Consider this the ultimate wake-up call.
DeleteOnce half the population gets over the initial shock and hurt, you can all start planning how to get involved in making your country a better place.
“Stronger together.” Stronger than ever before.
I think the whole world is going to become even more of a very strange and curious place to visit after this result... But as always... The Sun still rises...
ReplyDeletePRINNY: Did you hear that Barbra Streisand may move to either Canada or Australia because of this election result?
DeleteShall we toss a coin to see which one of us gets her?
Babs is welcome to couch surf here until she finds her feet...
Deletewhat would i do with out you.
ReplyDeleteNORMA: You’d be fabulous with or without me.
DeleteTrump is feeding on OUR hate. It's our hatred toward him that got him the top spot.
ReplyDeleteMaybe this is the slap in the face we need to wake up.
Maybe...
But since the passing of my mother in August, I just don't care about anything anymore.
Sorry. I'll just go back in my cave for the rest of winter. See y'all next spring.
Maybe...
HUGGY JON: Many Infomaniac Bitches have felt the pain of losing our mothers and so we feel for you.
DeleteNous pensons à toi en ces temps difficiles et tristes.
