You don't need to apologize. When your country makes a decision that will have global political and economic repercussions for years to come, you have every right to vent. Particularly when it was a decision influenced by extremists playing on ignorance and fear. Here in the US, our elections tend to go that way far too often, and I'm very scared that my country will make the same mistake in November. The rise of racist, xenophobic politicians playing on fear seems now to be global phenomenon, and that is very frightening.

My hope is that people everywhere see Brexit as a warning, and that those who were ignorant and indifferent are woken-up the the reality that ignorance and indifference will have real-life consequences for them, and join the rest of us in fighting politics motivated by hate & fear. *crosses fingers*

I hope things somehow turn out better than what we expect, but in the meanwhile- *HUGS*

And if you're looking for fannish distraction, have you heard about Big Finish having a short story contest? The winning entry gets recorded as a Short Trip read by Nick Briggs! I'm still toying with giving it a try, even though the submission deadline is in a few days- a good excuse to sit down and write!
