“Today I mourn.

I mourn for the giant step backwards in time we’ve taken as a nation.

I mourn for the planet that will now suffer greatly under the regime of a man who thinks global warming is a hoax, and holds significant stock in two companies directly funding the Dakota Pipeline project.

I mourn for the people I love in the LGBTQ community that no longer feel as safe or accepted. I’m truly baffled that after a year of so much progress for LGBTQ rights we’ve elected a man who has pledged to sign a bill making discrimination against this community legal.

I mourn for minorities; for the families that will be torn apart by "the wall”; and for those that no longer feel safe in their own skin because a man endorsed by the KKK is now your president. I can’t do much as an individual but I will stand with you in the face of the injustices to come.

I mourn for religious freedom as this term is about to have a very narrow meaning. I never thought America would have put a man in power that would call for a “total shutdown of muslims”. I thought we’d learned something from the last time someone tried to shut down an entire religion.

I mourn for my fellow women. I can’t comprehend that we’ve taken that creep on the street that won’t take no for an answer and put him in charge of our country (and our bodies with the policies he’s got in mind).

I mourn for foreign affairs and the chaos that will ensue under the leadership of a man who can’t seem to understand the word “no”; or that imitating the people you’re negotiating with isn’t appropriate.

I mourn for the national debt. Trump may be successful at the moment but let’s not forget this was achieved through trial and error. These errors include a number of bankruptcies. Running a country is different than running a business and we don’t have room for trial and error.

In the land of the brave, we allowed fear to win.

I’m not trying to bash you if you voted for Trump. You’re entitled to your opinion, and I am simply sharing mine. I may not understand your reasoning but I ask that you respect my time of mourning and refrain from any negative comments if you would.“

i love that hillary calls trump “donald” bc it reminds everyone that he’s held no political position and has no experience, plus it diminishes all the power of the brand name “trump” and instead reminds us of a stuttering idiot duck-looking motherfucker who doesn’t ever know what he’s talking about

It was a real lesson in my endless capacity to hold a grudge. I do it so well, I don’t even notice that it’s happening. I walk around with these calcified resentments for years until someone points them out and I can go: “Good Lord, is that still in here? Let’s get rid of that. And throw out ‘pretending that watching boys play video games is fun’ while we’re at it.”

I had to take a moment to wonder who else fell into this category of default enemy. I went through a list of people who, in theory, I’d want to hit in the face with a meat tenderizer. You, the coworker from 10 years ago who owes me, like, three grand? It was 10 years ago! You were addicted to OxyContin! Go! Be free! My ­seventh-grade teacher, who told me that most child actors don’t succeed as adult actors? You just wanted to scare me into having a backup plan! Farewell! Good luck! Tori from fourth grade, who accused me of writing mean stuff about all our friends on the playground wall? BURN IN HELL, TORI. I KNOW IT WAS YOU!!! 

I’m still working on it.
