Post truth is a fucking terrifying place, isn’t it? We’ll give £350 million to the NHS, you’ll give people the ‘right’ to bring back child labour - as you say, what *are* facts, anyway? They’re for liberals and left wingers and losers, apparently

I have this new thing I do since november 9th where every morning I wake up two hours before I have to get up and I just lie there and fucking Dread Everything.

I don’t know. Facts don’t matter. I don’t know. He’s having fucking victory rallies as we speak. I don’t know. It’s like being on a seesaw between total despair and spitting defiance and it’s absolutely dizzying. And I get the headlines mixed up on the two sides of the ocean, because the way news works on the Internet makes it not super clear who’s really talking about what. Does anybody believe anything anymore? Is anything actually real anyway? I mean, what does anything mean? 

Nothing means anything. Truth is a construct, and history is a fabrication and a conceit. 

Everything is new, and everything is terrifying.
