Even being the stubborn feisty person I am, marching and pink hats, petitions and voter drives, local meetings and emailing/calling... this is wearing me down. Most days I can hoist myself up out of the great nothingness that this hideous person and his elitist, repugnant, anti-humanity administration has soiled the country with in just one freaking month...but some days I just sit in a stunned stupor or disbelief.

nothing like it in my many decades-long adulthood.

There is so little in the daily bombardment of wtf crap to hold on to for a ray of hope.
One damn month feels like one damn year already.
