This election was an existential threat to democracy. Anyone who was able to vote and didn't vote for Harris, the opposition candidate, is to blame. The Democrats who stayed home because of fucking Gaza even moreso. We Harris voters knew this shit would happen because we pay attention. Anyone who voted for trump to send a message needs to do the same. There was 0 chance a trump presidency would turn out well for the Palestinians in Gaza.
Not only do I have shitty vision from diabetic retinopathy and I have horrible hand-eye coordination. If I tried woodworking, I'd end up killing myself or someone else!
The summer before 9/11, I started a tech support job at an educational publisher. I'm still here as a Level 4 tech because it's a very stable, secure job. If the DoE is eliminated, I have no idea what happens to my job now or in the future, so I'm terrified. Most of the tech knowledge I had 24 years ago has been replaced with institutional knowledge that isn't transferable. Plus, I'm 51, which is a rough age to start looking for new tech jobs.
I'm so angry with my country that we've come to this.
I never left Firefox. It's a fantastic browser.
