Of course, friend!! I understand how challenging it is to see your friends not supporting your basic needs. They lack a sense of understanding of your perspective and how the election has (and will) affected you and many of our communities, but that does not make it any less harsh. If you need to reach out to me for advice or support, I have a lot of experience with bigotry in my own life due to my identity, so I would love to help in any way possible. Thank you so much for sharing this, and again, you are never alone <3 I'm so glad you were able to find comfort in this :)
This is amazing! I could instantly tell it was a "murder board" (or so I think of such boards in my head) with an arrangement of labelled suspects and the connections between them, complete with little notes and scribblings. There's nothing macabre about this though; the colors keep it fresh and add to the intrigue.
(P.S. SVU is a classic, I've been watching it half my life!)
I feel like accessories, distinct from larger garments we wear less frequently, can express so much about our personalities. It sounds like this hat you made meant a great deal to you at one time, and saw much of your life through its non-seeing eyes as it lived atop your head in a hundred different social settings. Even if you no longer wear it, you should hang on to it for sentimental reasons or to pass on to a loved one some day, especially because it's an expression of your creativity/handiwork!
Although this piece is on the bleaker side, it also expresses great wisdom: There is no such thing as perfection, perfection is unattainable. Or that's how I read it anyway, but I imagine there's more than one interpretation and multiple meanings behind your words!

Thank you. I needed this. I have some friends who are legitimately upset at me for being upset that Trump got elected, and I've really been feeling so alone lately. I really appreciate the reminder that I'm not alone. <3<3<3

Cool thanks.

Agreed. We have to do whatever we can to make it through this. Feel free to reach out if you ever need someone to talk to.
This is amazing, thank you so much. Us queers have to stick together and you're helping.
