I will live for spite and human rights.
new reason to stay alive: outlive the trump presidency. In fact, outlive Trump. He isn’t immortal. We can live to see the day he's guaranteed to never be in office ever again and we can make sure he knows that he'll never have enough power to kill you
stay strong, friends, this isn't your fault
Chuds on twitter getting mad about Joe Biden stepping down because it "betrays the democratic voters" is a prime example of how reactionary the right is.
Republicans have been degrading, and systematically trying to prevent democrats from voting for YEARS, and now they suddenly care about the rights of democrat voters? I call BS
This is a prime example of moving the goal post. They always have to be mad about something. They can't just let him step down peacefully (as they and everyone else have been pleading him to), it has to be twisted into some moral failing on him and the democrats.
Anyone undecided about the US election?
Done a range of tags to get a discussion going. Please be respectful :-)

State these pieces of information in a paragraph:
- 32 fake Bomb Threats were called into democratic leaning poll places, rendering polls to be closed first least an hour
- a lot of people were reporting their ballots weren't counted for various reasons that are not very sound seeming. (Signature invalidation, Information that the vote counter could not have had)
- This all occured in swing states (PA, NV, GA, etc)
- This is all too coincidental that these things happen and swing in his favor after months of hinting of foul play.
- DIRECTLY STATE THAT AN INVESTIGATION FOR TAMPERING/ INTERFERENCE/ FRAUD IS REQUIRED, NOT JUST A RECOUNT

Grieve AND organize.
Good article by David Hunter on how to survive the Trump presidency, both on the personal and on the political plane.

Please remember that you aren’t alone. It might seem hard now but if we keep fighting it will eventually get better. If we just give up it encourages Trump. I know it seems hard but we are here for you. There are other people relying on you so please just live.
*gripping your shoulders and shaking you* you gotta promise me one thing, if nothing else. you have to promise me to live, do you hear me. and if it's for nothing else but spite, LIVE. donald trump wants you to feel defeated and alone. let's show him and all the americans who voted for him that we will not stay quiet, we will not be devided and we will LIVE. we will survive that 78-year old asshole, we will OUTLIVE him. so please reach out to friends and family, reach out to each other and STAND TOGETHER.
PLEASE, LIVE!
do you ever just think about how different the U.S. and the world would be if bernie sanders had won the democratic primaries and then the presidential election in 2020? or even 2016?
it actually hurts to think about how much would be better
As someone who grapples with suicidal ideation on the daily:
DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES KILL/HARM YOURSELF. THERE IS SO MUCH MORE LEFT IN THIS WORLD THAT IS WORTH LIVING FOR. A DARK TIME DOES NOT MEAN A DARK TIME FOREVER. WE CAN BE DISTRESSED AT WHAT MAYBE LOST - BUT HOLD ON AND GROUND YOURSELF.
YOU DO NOT DESERVE TO GO OUT THIS WAY, LIVE DESPITE THIS RESULT. LIVE IN SPITE OF HIM. WHATEVER EMPOWERS YOU MORE.
