I live in Chicago and I write and sometimes I take pictures.
Hi,
We don't know each other, so I hope you don't mind me saying this:
I don't know what you're going through, what you've been through, but I can tell that you're hurting and I'm so, so sorry for it. There's no way, though, that this world is better without you in it.

And yes, I know our history does not give a lot of reasons for optimism.
But just accepting that guarantees nothing better will happen.
Things DO sometimes improve, but they only do when ppl reject pessimism and push for that better outcome.
And lose a lot! But all the wins come from trying.

Doomers are really a scourge, whining about how all is lost while millions of people are putting in the hours to get us through this.

This is a good time to remind people that your backpack may have a whistle on it.

I would love for a single democrat to reckon with the fact that conservatives are not in fact motivated by reasonable concerns. They are — just as they were with ‘concerns’ over blacks and gays and numerous other minorities over the last five decades — motivated by bigotry.
