Inspiration is the 4:56 mark of this. <3
Midwives bringing monsters into the world sounds like a game I'd try.
You're like my first Lemmy celebrity
Baba Yetu, the Swahili opening to the game Civilization 4. Wikipedia says it's the first song made for a video game to win a Grammy.
First thing I thought of, thank you
I split with my ex of 10 years (together while I was 18 thru 29ish) and took for granted what support I did have. I'm lucky to have had parents and adult siblings on my side.
You're doing a heavier lift than I had to. I'd have been in a bad place if I had no support. You were dealt a shitty hand. But the support is there, and you're on the right track to healing by seeing your therapist. Future you will be able to look back and see this for the learning experience it is. Today my wife and I tease past-me about some red flags I ignored about my ex.
I want to share Tragedy + Time by Rise Against with you. It may come across as intended for the bereaved, but its words do not gatekeep feelings based on the cause of them. (It says "she" once but don't get hung up on the gender.) In fact, I am tearing up right now at the thought that you, feeling what you feel, might find some solace in it.
In support of the statement that Dubya was worshipped, one can see LITERAL WORSHIP in the documentary Jesus Camp. Children at evangelical camp being led in prayer to a cardboard cutout of him.

More people need to understand this, I think.
One video of a red voter had him expressing regret for his vote. In one expression he said "I guess I'm democrat now" with the same distaste as someone saying "guess I eat dogs now".
I don't think he'd have as much hesitation changing a vote in the future if he didn't feel like doing so makes him into a monster he helped to paint.
