No, just empathetic. Its scary and its going to be hard, and its hard to be a systems thinker/student of history etc because the patterns are so clear. And you see them repeating here too. I have been thinking a lot about how to make room for the grief and fear so that I can recharge and get back to making little differences in my little corners. But I have no answers, just remote hugs

No. Not sook, but foresightful. My boy and his wife are getting out asap - certainly by June/July this year. They want to have another child, and wife is (rightfully) afraid for her general and reproductive health in Florida. The clinic she was going to has announced that it’s moving to Seattle. From Florida. So it can continue to provide 1st class health care for women. Which is no longer possible in Florida without breaking state laws.

My boy is also disgusted with the way that politicians and others there have fled into ‘moral’/religious bunkers of hate, fear and repression.

The USA is dividing into have/have not healthcare states. This is truly scary imo.
