Hmmm...maybe posting and hoping for more engagement here was a little premature. It looks like some other posts have gone missing and now the LP homepage is redesigned and it took me a while to even find a link to the message boards.
I've thought of starting a thread like this many times. But I have to admit I'm dealing with a sort of numb depression still. I guessed that everyone else must be feeling the same way. Every Monday morning brings a new tweetstorm.....Every time I think things couldn't get more stupid, they do. And, just like I thought back in Nov. '16, this is turning out to be the longest 4 years of my life. Still, I'm not sitting on my hands. We've marched, written postcards, donated to "Blue" campaigns. I'm lucky that I live in an area that is largely Liberal (Northern Cal). Almost all of my friends have the same views that I have. And, I'm so glad to see all of your familiar "faces" here - also weathering the storm. I do have hope - I believe that our younger voters just might turn out this coming November. And, I am hoping that some Gerrymandering decisions will be decided in time for these mid-terms. Let's all try to keep checking in here from time to time - I've always appreciated your thoughts on all of the political messes we're enduring!
Well, I tried to tell y'all we were so screwed .... Here's what reminded me that I hadn't checked in in awhile:
I'm very late to this thread. Hi everyone. ecdc, glad things are going well. Sorry you had some rough times.
I am, to put it as concise as possible, heartsick. Just trying to go on with as happy a life as possible as I grieve for the fate of my grandchildren.
how the heck do we get back on the link on the front page, I think everyone stopped posting because you can't get in here without trying to google.
