If you're in shock, you can't do much.
Now is a good time to start accepting that cities are going to burn. Mobs and lone wolves are going to cause mass violence. State oppression will become draconian.
Prepare as best you can.

I rarely write. For me, drawing/painting and making music are fun - almost effortless. Writing is hard. Writing requires a lot more effort than playing guitar. I have been writing lately - because the challenge has started to seem worth it. And I believe it is important to make every effort to resist fascism. As the US becomes more fascist, I resist more. Creativity is only one of many ways to resist fascism.

[#]WritersCoffeeClub Jan 16: How would you describe the way you create your stories to a non-writer?
I never tried to do. No one's ever asked me.
I've been creating stories in my head since I was a kid, usually when I'm bored or in bed before I go to sleep. Some have been very elaborate. Some have been set in other writers' worlds. I don't write many of them because writing is harder than imagining.

[#]WritersCoffeeClub Day 15: Would you ever hide your politics to avoid alienating readers?
My politics, opinions, tastes and interests are liberally sprinkled throughout anything I write, sometimes disguised. I like works that contain Easter eggs, so I load as many as I can into my own stuff.
I don't write for "readers". I write for my own pleasure - and I'm already alienated.

To clarify: I use "my sibling in Christ" purely in jest.
On the subject of violence, I'm totally serious.

"I don't condone violence, but..."
My sibling in Christ, violence is happening all around you, everyday, whether you condone it or not. You are participating in it.
The only question is "What side are you on?"

I had my coat on and was about to leave work when 2 guys started yelling at each other and then 1 of them pulled out a weapon. Added 30 minutes to my shift.
I was gonna just make him leave, but he insisted I call the PD, so I was like "If that's what you want..."
8 cops showed up in the usual bullet-proof vests. And like, I faced that guy wearing a cardigan.

That was a wonderful example of 1950s B-movie scifi. Small cast, forced relationships, a dumb kid. some pretentious babbling about people's hubris, no actual understanding of science, and a sudden ending. Classic.
