"I really don't think life is about the I-could-have-beens. Life is only about the I-tried-to-do. I don't mind the failure, but I can't imagine that I'd forgive myself if I didn't try."
Rest In Peace Nikki Giovanni ❤️

I thought this would hurt more than 2016 but it doesn't.
That was a shock. This is just confirmation.
We now know that 2016 wasn't a fluke or an aberration, that this is what the majority wants: whiteness, patriarchy, nationalism, hatred, nihilism.
Whether I want to spend the rest of my life in such a place is something my mind isn't prepared to consider.
Right now, I just know that I'm seeing the nation with my eyes fully open and there is no mistaking what so many people I Ioved and once respected, actually value.
As heartbreaking as that is, I now know where they stand, and I know it's nowhere I want to be.

Elections have consequences. The Supreme Court will be changed for a generation. I’ll never see a moderate court again in my lifetime. Alito and Thomas will step down and Trump will appoint 40 year old partisans to the bench. The damage he is about to inflict on our institutions the next 2 years will be irreparable.

Trump didn’t just win. He expanded his base…..think about that….with everything he faced and did….his message penetrated the American psyche and resonated. His persona single handily changed the scope of American politics….
