I'm a dual citizen from the UK/Canada.

I feel the same way after Brexit. I felt a huge sense of dread and my coworker said to me, "we work in a high paying position and we're men, we're mostly going to be okay. The people that voted for Brexit have just f*cked themselves and there's nothing we can do about it."

I do feel a lot of animosity to any Trump supporter and I feel that's warranted. I don't care to elaborate further. I'm thinking of dropping social media for the next six months because there's a lot of shit going on that I have no control over and I can't change.

I’m thinking of dropping social media for the next six months because there’s a lot of shit going on that I have no control over and I can’t change.

That was pretty much my exact thought. I still log in (obviously). But I used to doom-watch the news after work leading up to the election. And for the last couple of nights I've been watching reruns of Quantum Leap on Pluto TV instead.

Feels good.
