Sickened.

I am vacillating between rage and despair, like many women today, I suspect.

Rapey-K will be a justice of the United States Supreme Court. It's... almost surreal. Only it's much much too real for that.

The outcome was expected, to be honest, but... I guess part of me though that somewhere out there there might be a Republican or two with some teeny bit of decency? Yeah, no, not so much. Scum. The R next to their names stands for Rape and Racism, I guess.

At this point, I have very little hope left for this country. There truly is Two Americas, and we no longer have any common touchpoints.

I think it's time to call it quits on the American experiment, admit that it's failed, and find a way to move on.

I for one balk at the idea of living in a country who fate is decided, because of Senate and the fucking Electoral College, but a minority of people who tend to be from small rural states. I don't want fucking Iowa and Kentucky deciding my future and that of my children.

I don't know how we unwind this, but I don't think these is much left United any longer.
