    Remember during the election when so many crazy things happened in a week that you couldn't keep track of it all? That's what it feels like right now, with this new administration. I posted three articles this morning about stuff that made me angry and I was gonna post more but stopped only because Dala asked me to. She said, and I quote, "You're giving me a stomach ache."

that's the strategy. make you exhausted, make you immobile, sick, so you can't do anything.Hit you again and again so that you don't have time to process all of the awful things that are happening to you.

Unfortunately, it's also how they win.
