Oh man. They kept us home from my school given that it’s an election site and they don’t want us around strangers, that sounds awful.
Ngl election stress has me like on the verge of tears ^^ I’m a closeted queer kid surrounded by Trump supporters who have no idea my rights would be GONE with that man in office
Yeah Kamala isn’t great either because politicians but regardless I’d feel much less in danger with her in office
yes yes yes! this is what I’ve been saying! that fact that currently 90% of my rights are in jeopardy does NOT make me feel safe and I am actually scared right now. Like I don’t know about you guys, but I kind of like having rights, especially ones about healthcare where gross old M.E.N have no business controlling them.
The election is honestly a little more than terrifying. Like, 95% of the people on here would just be stripped of our rights if it goes wrong just for being queer.
To be honest with you, I’m just terrified of what will happen next.

Today I was out and about, just having a walk as usual, when I saw a crowd of people, all dressed in politically charged paraphernalia, all chanting to “Vote Red!” All the while they abused and lambasted some poor guy in the crowd.

And guess what? They didn’t give half a shit that they were driving him to have a meltdown and that they were going to leave horrifically maimed with the amount of punishment he received. It took me and three other guys to get the crowd to get the hell away. It’s a miracle he wasn’t sent to stay at a hospital for a month.

It feels so terrible knowing that people will turn on you willingly and violently over something like gender, sexual orientation, mental conditions, and religion (Or lack thereof). I feel like I’m going to get consumed and spat out by the same, inane stupid crowd that enabled the whole fiasco in Gaza. The same sort of people that would gleefully commit heinous crimes just to fulfill their pointless pursuit of “purity” or “maintaining a Godly lifestyle” or whatever else they’ll come up with to excuse their inhumanity.

Honestly, I wish I could just disappear into a black void. At least in an empty void, no one will be there to scream at you for being yourself.
oh my gosh, that's so scary I'm so glad that there are people like you in the world to stop that sort of horrible behavior 🥲
um yeah honestly lemme tell yah ive never really realized, I guess, just how fucked up the trump supporters are, like we arent all like that I swear wtf😭 im horrified to hear that, honest to god horrified

I have some family voting for Trump too. "Sickening" is the perfect word for it. I hope ya'll are safe wherever you are and that this all leaves us alive (mentally and emotionally alive too).
On the verge of a panic attack. Girlfriend keeping track of the votes right now. I’m not very Christian anymore but fucking god help us
Officially having a panic attack 👍
I’ve never had one before so that just makes it even better

Is this what anxiety feels like?
(Hey guys, just popping in to kind of quietly ask to tone down the politics topic a bit. I completely understand the tension/anxiety/etc, being an American myself and in a household that is split between sides, but politics in general is a firestarter for arguments and controversy, especially when mentions of triggering activities are involved, so I would appreciate it if these conversations are moved to PMs, if possible, to help avoid making folks uncomfortable)
(Also, virtual hugs to all those having anxiety/panic attacks. I only just saw this conversation, so hence why I’m popping in now)
Trump won-
yeah… I really thought we'd win
On a slightly brighter note, damn. These Antihistamine withdrawal symptoms suck.
My skin feels like it wants to get flayed off.
I just spent the entire day putting up Christmas lights, Christmas decorations and a Christmas tree. My back hurts but everything is Christmasy now and I'm happy :D
