As for avoiding Trump news, some of us can’t avoid it (self-inflicted wounds and all), but as I told a friend of mine in similar despair, that after a point, it doesn’t do much more good to focus on the latest outrage.

Just vote, vote, vote and if timing, health and safety permit, be seen at protests to show everyone there that they’re not alone either.
And yeah, thinking about the loss of either of my cats causes the choking pain in the back of my throat as well. Be as well as you can be.
