I don't feel sad at all. I'm a little bit in disbelief that with all this information, so many people can arrive at a conclusion that seems borderline insane to me, but that disbelief is what I'm looking to crack. Waking up. This has been an exciting time, and there is so much fun to be had. I've gotten so many ideas about ways to speak up and act, and it's still the same old thing: Doing it. Everyone has been great to talk about it and vote and anything else.
The theme right now for me is fundamentalism, and avoiding it. It's clear that we're very divided, and that things some of us see as obvious, others don't. I'm interested in finding the common parts. More than that, I'm more than ever interested in being nice.
