Hark, O desolate soul!

Lend your ear to the earth,

Hear how she rumbles with fortune,

And the gilded treasures of the hearth?

Prosperous is the kingdom of Mammon,

The King of abundance and no need

Guiding his few to the secrets of prosperity!

The gods are not going to punish you for the way the election turned out.

There's already a trend I'm seeing where people are claiming the gods are mad, and mad at us specifically, and I NEED you to please, please try and listen to me when I say that this is a part of grief. We are scared and looking for someone to punish us, to tell us that we're bad, to validate how scared we feel.

This is even MORE prevalent if you've grown up with abusive parents.

Listen, I cannot speak on behalf of the gods, nobody can, especially random people on tiktok.

Try to see that this is a part of doom-scrolling, it's also a part of the grieving process, it's also a part of fear.

If you are concerned about the safety of a specific group in your area (migrants, queer people, people of color, people with disabilities) now is a good time to start looking into local non-profit groups that help these people in your area.

Local non-profits are important because it narrows your scope and allows you to focus on direct action in your community. If you are unable to donate money, consider volunteering your time.

There is nothing wrong with also donating to larger non-profits (Planned Parenthood, Human Rights Campaign, Trevor Project). However- I strongly advocate local for both practical reasons and for mental health reasons. Local charities are going to be focused more on community building programs, and those social safety nets are absolute lifesavers.

My focus is on the queer community in Ohio. Below is a list of resources for queer health in Ohio:

If you want to go back into the closet at this time, I understand. Do whatever is safest for you.
