Worry and Hope

Howdy, folks!
I will admit that this past week was, putting it very lightly, fucking rough. When I woke up on Wednesday morning, it took me a while to digest what had just happened. It only really hit me closer to the end of the day in the midst of a few crying fits. The fact that I'm a non-citizen living in the USA might give you a clue as to why. Sadly, this country has chosen to go down a route that, while not surprising to me anymore, is still deeply depressing.
I didn't intend to imbue the song with this intense energy, but I think it kind of happened anyways. Thankfully, the song came out with a fun balance of worry and hope which I think is kind of appropriate for the situation right now. I mean I'll be honest, hope is fresh out of stock at my department store, but still, I know it's something I'll need to have a lot of on hand pretty soon, hahahaha....
Please take care of yourself and your loved ones, help build community and safe spaces, and talk to people around you. Together we can get through this nonsense. We've done it before and we'll do it again.
Peace, y'all.
