Rescue yourselves please. Pretty pretty please. Do what you know needs doing.
lol, I am not here because I am foolish enough to expect I am actually getting rescued, we have long sailed past that point awhile ago, I am here because I call a turd a turd and that is just who I am and the rest of my life follows from that.
We are under no illusion how cooked we are, but you overestimate the agency we have to rescue ourselves.
Better start finding some.
Nobody else is coming to save you from yourselves.
It's up to Americans to fix their own shit.
There isn't any, are you listening to me?
People keep saying shit like "stay safe" as if there is any way most of us are going to escape this.
If I end up ok it is only because of dumb luck that many like me won't have, that is just the reality of it. I am ADHD, I don't fit into this society, my brain is unwanted in this society (fuck off anyone telling me ADHD is a gift), I have a massive target on my back and tolerance for neurodiverse folks is plummeting.
Why would you think I am under any illusion about my future or that I wouldn't have already avoided it if I could have?
For decades I've been constantly hearing Americans calling themselves"home of the free, land of the brave".
But in the last 4 months all I hear is "there's nothing we can do. We just have to accept this fascist takeover".
All of those Americans screaming about the Second Amendment, and absolutely nothing to show for it even as an actual fucking tyrannical government is undermining their country. Well armed militia my ass.
