People like Trump and Musk are deeply miserable people. Nothing in the world can give them what any human truly needs: meaningful, loving connections with others. Keep that in mind. These people are constructs of deep pathology that makes them weak. We can, and will, overcome these obstacles.

Something I've been doing is focusing on self care. I've been in a dark place these last few weeks, and I've recognized the need to get my mind in the right place. Self care is incredibly important. We can't resist and stand up to autocracy if our mind and body is in shambles.

... only if we come together. Vague, I know, but I think it's an important point. We have to remind ourselves that Trump and his ilk want us to feel nothing but despair. They fear us more than anything coming together and taking action. If that's what they fear, then that is what we must do...
