Hey, I’m sorry it took me a while to get to this, but I really appreciate the comment! And no, I don’t think you were implying anything, I was just trying to contribute something helpful. :)

Your sincerity and compassion is a light in these dark days, and reading your words from across the world really lifted my spirits.

I’m not currently in a state that’s being invaded or occupied right now, but it’s still scary, and we’re constantly bracing for the next insane, stupid thing that’s going to happen next. It does hurt when it seems like others across the world (with their own petty wannabe-autocrats) are jeering for everything to collapse here, without thinking of all the people here they’d gladly share a beer with.

Like they’ve just written us off, even when millions are protesting and helping immigrants and even just struggling to get by as everything gets shittier.

Thank you for the really kind words and sincerity. I hope wherever you are, you and yours are safe and happy and healthy.
