combat trump: read

there are many things we can do over the next four years to combat what is most certainly going to be a gruesome and dark period in this country. one of the most important: READ. seriously. the election of trump represents the death of a fundamental component of democracy: intellect. it has been stigmatized as something bourgeois and elitist and it is not. it's a wonderful thing that anyone can acquire. so whether you're an academic or a 9 to 5er read. read voraciously. and when the dust settles we'll be a better place for it. cus i love my country with all my heart and i know you do too. and we're not gonna let a bunch of misogynistic half-wit goons take it over.
