I can't even fucking imagine. I mean, running for president is such a huge, exhausting undertaking that I feel even a tiny bit sympathetic for all of them when they lose (emphasis on tiny when it comes to McCain). But when you add to that the knowledge that A) you didn't really lose, 2) to the extent you did "lose," it may well have resulted from tampering and foreign interference, and III) it certainly resulted from the very sexism and misogyny that you've fought all your life and maybe thought, for once, you had vanquished - for yourself and millions of other women and girls. Ugh.

Anyone else here beginning to feel like Facebook is now nothing more than a propaganda machine?

Absolutely. Bannon as well - I'm pretty sure Breitbart ran some fake article about Sandy Hook as a liberal false flag blah blah blah. Isn't it funny though, when some nutcase actually acts on these stories the right immediately disavows and even claims that the crazy is an agent of the left/liberal, when it's patently obvious that he/she is a card carrying wingnut.

It's grief. It has its one eloquence. You don't have to get the words right, but the emotion has to ring true. And honest. Because in a very real way there really is nothing you can say.

I LOVE YOU HILLARY.

I wanted you to be America's stuffy-but-secretly-fun mom, and you aren't officially, but your the mom of my heart.

I'm very, very white, but if I met Hillary I would fling myself on her feet like a newly married daughter on her in-laws at the end of an epic Bollywood romance.

It's outrageous that America turned its back on what was undoubtedly the best qualified candidate for president in generations. Why do stupid people get to vote?
