I've probably been spending too much on TikTok but I feel so weird about this and everything lately. Like the Dems are too calm, AOC's "Lives" came out of nowhere, and it's just.

Y'all, maybe it's the long walk to inauguration day that has me this way :')

I think Dems are just trying to figure out WTF to do. It's hard because like Dems are going to have to learn how to pick our battles. If we fight against everything, it will all become background noise to the general public. We're going to have to strategize where we want to spend our fighting energy that will be most important and most effective.

I opened up Bluesky, saw Biden sitting down chatting with TFG like everything is cool, started having an anxiety attack, and closed that app real quick. I feel crazy and like I'm catastrophizing but everything in me is screaming it's going to get really really bad, and I can't honestly tell anymore if I'm being rational or not. Good luck to my therapist when we meet on Friday.

Ugh and you know Biden treated him like everything is normal (the MAGAts are spreading the rumor that he voted Trump). And he's not going to take any steps that he could now to stop him. We're fucked.

I've only ever had heat-induced panic attacks and yesterday was my first one completely related to feeling claustrophobic because of the world. I've never been so mentally unwell lol

Wait what about AOC's lives?

I saw the one where she asked split ticket voters.

There are videos, either post-Live, or ones screen-recorded from a few days ago. She was answering questions and 'reassuring' people, at least that's the vibe I got from it.
Not sure if that's the same video, or from the same video you're referring to.

I didn’t get a reassurance vibe from it ngl. More like an everyone is still processing this vibe and not really sure what the next steps are since this term will be worse and there’s way less safe guards in place.

[fieldofdreams]

I feel like I was grasping at straws for any sign of positivity but after reading your reply, I agree that the lives felt more like that.

[indy788]

Honestly sometimes her lives are low key comforting in these situations so I get it

i think him winning the popular vote took the defense out of everyone, this is what the people want

Fucking Chuck and his “I can’t wait to work with the republicans”.

They will do what they always do, sit on their thumbs and cry. They have no fight just a bunch of old tired windbags waiting to die in their senate seats.

Fuck all of them

What did AOC do?

[fieldofdreams]

She went live on Tiktok/Instagram a few days ago to answer questions and talk about post-election feelings

[recognitions]

What's wrong with that?

[fieldofdreams]

Oh nothing was wrong with it :') I was just noting that it was one of the many things I've been watching during my TikTok coping doom scrolling.
