i am not stupid and i know that democrats are not going to magically fix racism and sexism and every queer discrimination issue ever, but i also know we just put a lot of women, people of colour (women of colour!), and queer people into elected positions and that damned well is an improvement so shut the fuck up and let me be greatful for the first breath of relief i’ve had since 2016.

we’re fighting to survive and we have to start somewhere realistic.
