Election day 2024
#64
Well, folks, your Token Liberal here is indeed very depressed over the results.  You'd have felt as I do if the election went the way I hoped for.

I have many friends and family members who are at risk here (gay, trans, Black, Latinx, the entire Furry community, SF fans, Renfaire folk, SCAdians, etc) and I worry for all of them.  I am very concerned that we may lose Social Security and Obamacare; with hubby's Parkinson's and Diabetes (and a whole list of other problems) and daughter and grandchildren with medical problems, things could get grim.  One friend (widow) with multiple disabilities will likely lose her home and at least one other is at risk of suicide (another woman (age 77) whose medical expenses run into the thousands of dollars each month.)

I'll be looking into how to protect our finances... that's going to be critical.  

One day at a time, I suppose.  I was afraid this would happen, but hadn't run many scenarios in my head because there's so many variables (how much of the administration will be replaced is one of those.)

Anyway... (sigh) I think I'll go try to focus on some research.  And reach out to those at immediate risk.
