Social media is the best and the worst of us. It connects us when we might otherwise be isolated, and it magnifies the ugliest parts of our nature. It offers hope and comfort, and makes attack so easy it happens before we think.
Right now...it is for many of us, a lifeline.
Right now...it is for many of us, a lifeline.
I am grateful for all of you. Even when we — even when I bite and scratch and shout. Even when we're at each other's figurative throats, standing on the precipice of a new nation or the edge of absolute ruin.
While we're in this strange, grey limbo between the past not yet dead and the future not yet born, I am grateful to have this platform to reach you and to be reached. To hear you. Even when what I hear hurts or makes me angry.
It's humanity. And it's solidarity.
It's humanity. And it's solidarity.
Right now when we are each holed away in our cloudy, discrete sorrows, it means the world to know that we can meet here, in this place that is no place, and hold one another.
Even for a second, before we argue passionately again.
Even for a second, before we argue passionately again.
Our fates are connected. Your suffering is mine, and mine is yours.
Stay home. Breathe in. Take heart. #Solidarity and love forever.
