A card reading friend just told me everything is gonna be okay.
Why can't I believe her.
In 2016, shortly before Trump was elected, my best friend kept insisting there was nothing to worry about. That the President couldn't actually do much and nothing would really change.
I haven't had any communication with her since.
Fuck that pollyanna head in the sand bullshit.
I'm speechless. She looked me dead in the eye and said, "Donald has had a spiritual awakening. It's going to be okay."
Wtf do you say to that?
When people can't face the reality of things, they crack and start hallucinating, going into wishful thinking, best-of-all-possible worlds mode.
It's a coping mechanism, but it illustrates why "coping" can be deadly.
Shook, my friend. Shook. 💜
Sounds like she needs to talk to a therapist. She's deep in denial.
