43 分钟The following podcast is a dear media production.
Hello.
Welcome to or welcome back to trying to take care.
It's a couple of days after the election.
It's the Friday before you listen to this episode when it drops.
And I had given myself a couple of days off from work and from the podcast to just mourn and grieve and feel everything
that I've been feeling.
Just allow myself to be angry and upset and feel everything.
And I thought I gave myself enough time.
But as I'm sitting down here, I've cried like three different times.
Luckily, the last recording of me like literally sobbing for whatever reason, it didn't pick up on the microphone.
So I had to rerecord this.
So I'm a lot more composed now.
But this week has just been really, really hard for me.
And it was difficult for me to pinpoint why this feeling that I've been feeling, like the anger that I've been feeling,
the disgust I've been feeling, the heartbreak I've been feeling is so different than anything I felt in the past.
You know, I've, I've been depressed and I've gone through heartbreak and I've gone through hard times,
but this just felt like I genuinely feel like I got the wind knocked out of me.
And I'm not going to get too into that today.
It just feels wrong and it's such a loss for women and for other marginalized communities and for our education system and our democracy and just everything.
