Ups and Downs

[respoftw]

I just woke up from a nap, looked at my phone and got the alert that they called the election in Biden’s favour. Maybe I should nap more often? Although I still have some trepidation about what Trump’s gonna do next (obviously he’ll try and find a loophole to stay) I’m beyond thrilled, not just for my American friends but also for the world! If this could be a sign that the shit show that is 2020 is turning a corner that would be great.

That’s the up.

Now for the down.

A friend and colleague of mine lost their battle with cancer this week. She was 51, full of life and always the first person to offer help and support to anyone. She’s going to be missed by so many people and the fact that she won’t get the send off she deserves physically causes me pain.

Fuck cancer. And Fuck Donald Trump

So sorry about your friend! It's so hard to lose someone who's still young like that... ::fierce hugs::

But, yes, naps are excellent things!

I’m so sorry to hear about your friend. I wish I could ease your pain.
We had a friend pass away not long ago. He left a wife, and several children.

Yes. Fuck cancer

I'm so sorry about your friend. ::hugs::

I think I'll take a day to enjoy America's victory before I start worrying about what Trump will get up to while he's still in office. It won't be anything good, that I know.

Thank you, friend x

I'm worried about how the next however many days until Biden takes over as president will go, but for tonight, I'm riding the relief and joy.

I'm so sorry for your loss :( The inability to celebrate someone's life and mourn their passing really sucks.

Thanks, it sucks so hard.
