I am sorry, but I am not going to deal with this hopelessness anymore [View all]

I get it, be sad. It is OK to be sad. I am sad.

But I keep seeing that it's all over.

Over?

I'm sorry friends, but "Over" is only going to happen when they force-feed me polonium or do a Dylann Roof to me, and they're going to look me in the eyes to do it. Then and only then is it "Over".

I can't be the only one who feels this way.

I also see people want to fight, so let's fight. If I am not mistaken, this is still the country of revolutionaries, abolitionists, the Underground Railroad, John Brown, suffragists, labor activists, muckrakers, civil rights activists, student activists, Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, anti-war activists, antifa, and Heather Heyer.

It's our turn now.

Is that what we're afraid of?

I'm not.

And you shouldn't be afraid either, and if you're not...

I have a request. I'm working on a project. If you are interested, send me a PM, the project will take time, it will take more than days, it may even take more than weeks. But I'll give you a brief synopsis and keep you in the loop.
