Election Day 2024
There are so many things I should have said but didn’t. I am not the type of person who says too much or says things I regret without thinking. On the contrary, I am far too quiet. In my case, I need to speak up more. There are many times I hold my tongue. In fact, I did it today, election day 2024.

Why I'm Mad at You. Content Warning.
I. More Than Politics—A Question of Values The morning after the election, I stared blankly at the news updates on my phone: Donald J. Trump would be the next President of the United States. I didn't just feel disappointment, I felt fear, anger, and disbelief.

"UNIQUE HUMANS". Content Warning.
I created this article and art to finalize my story writing regarding the results of the 2024 election. I am having a GRIM time wrapping my head around the masses of people who voted for authoritarian rule. I AM NOT GOING BACK! I must shout it out! This is the 21st century and the far-right wealthy people and over half of America voted to live under authoritarian rule. If I were wealthy, I would still be an empath, humanatarian, and caring person, not a rich fool that wants to dictate to the world. In my opinion' anyone who wants to dictate over others is a very weak human. A dictator has mental issues, low self-esteem, and is a bitter individual full of hate, destruction, and anger. They are small people who must bully others to cover up their inadequacies and fear of rejection as they tear up everything and everyone that disagrees with their abuse.

Were You REALLY Surprised By The 2024 Election?
We all know what a joke our presidential elections have been for the last 12 years. It's been a bad road circus with rodeo clowns running the show, and they ONLY had a trapeze act. We keep this statement exactly as it is, and almost ALL Americans can agree with each other.

I Don't Know What To Say. Content Warning.
Introduction I have no words for what happened. I did not see it coming, because I knew how it would destroy the lives of so many close friends. I can't find anything about this dark day. I always want to be positive and raise people's spirits but I am struggling today.

The Changing Face of America
I live in Indiana. It's a 'Red State.' 🤢🤮 When Trump was elected President in the abysmal year of 2016, his Vice President was Mike Pence. Pence was the former governor of Indiana. Mike was a typical conservative in most ways. He was a notorious homophobe.
