Yesterday I cried for hours.

Today, I screamed at my car radio till I was hoarse. Every time some R's voice came on, I damn near punched a hole right through it.

Starting tomorrow, and for the next...let's say rest of my life, I plan on kicking some entitled Republican ASS!

I had to call an old lib friend just to talk with someone who understands since I’m surrounded by them. A survey of our lib friends is that we all cried today. Feeling better now and ready to kick some ass.

I work in a clinic and last night I had a woman who was crying and another who could not drive due to the sedatives she had to take after watching the news coverage yesterday. It's horrible what people, especially women, are going through. We are no longer keeping it to ourselves and soldiering on. It's spilling over into every aspect of our lives. I have zero appetite and am losing weight.

Just remember, you are not going through this alone! There is so much sisterhood right now.

I'm not alone. And I'm not weak. There is so much I can do to help stop these bastards. If there is a silver lining at all, it is that we have found our voice, found each other, and found our purpose. Not that we hadn't before, but now that energy is more focused than ever.

They won't know what hit them.

I'm thinking this is the beginning of the end of the GOP. Their war on women is about to come back 10-fold.

put my Stop Kavanaugh protest sign in my car so people could see it and went out and taped giant 12" tall letters "V" "O" "T" "E" on my rear window and drove around like that. I am keeping them there (it hasn't rained around here in about 8 months so they'll last a while).

Tomorrow I am writing out more post cards from the ACLU to send to areas that are RED. I started doing this a month ago and can knock them out pretty quickly. I don't have to pay postage. I can do it at home whenever I want so it is easy and effective since they are hand written.
