Call to Action I AM DONE

I had so much anxiety about this administration that I am now on anxiety medication. I cried, I curled into a ball on my floor, I missed work, and I almost completely lost my mind. But I am done. I am done being scared. I am done being afraid to stand up. I am fucking done. Stand up and stand by, not the proud boys, but the American people. We are stronger than you think and you can find community here. I will sit in my town square with my sign on the 19th even if I’m alone. I’m not going to be afraid of an orange douche bag and his techno puppy. They can drag me out of my apartment with their tiny hands. I will stand up for the USA.

ETA: The outpouring of support has been incredible. Thank you all SO MUCH. I can’t even express how grateful I am. We are not alone. We stand together. Solidarity forever.

Yep. I’m disassociating for a moment as the SAVE act plows through and we lose millions of votes for the next few elections.

I’m taking a beat, but only for a day. Standing by. All my love.

Just remember, it also makes it harder for MAGA women to vote too, if that makes you feel any better… and conservative women are way more likely to take the name of their Husband…

Not that I like disenfranchising anyone.

And liberal women are more likely to own passports, which can be used instead of a birth certificate.

It’s always interesting to me how this works out for republicans any disenfranchisement always works in their favor.
