I  was always aware that Doctor Who was going to take a while to… Shake off isn’t the right word, because I don’t want to shake it off. I had an amazing time and it afforded me so much opportunity and it was an amazing job. But to change the consciousness of people and the perception of yourself in people, it takes time, and it might take me 10 years.

Don't stop fighting. Don't let him think he's safe, don't let him get comfortable - make him afraid. Who knows how long Trump will be in power, but for God's sake don't let it be easy for him. Fight harder, shout louder, bring down that fucking wall because whatever they say about millennials being lazy and self-absorbed, we are not alone and we can be a movement that affects change in a way no one's ever seen before. So yeah, it seems impossible, but we're talking about a generation that has toppled tyrants and forced the world to acknowledge issues the media outlets refuse to talk about. We've invented and we've galvanised and we've united by being more aware than any generations before us. Who's to say we can't do anything about this? Take the hurt and turn it into action. Keep going, keep fighting, keep protesting, and shout that fucking mountain down.

listen.

even if trump wins, it doesn’t mean it’s over. congress will not let him do most of what he wants to do (i mean, a lot of it’s unconstitutional, lmao). even if they do, it will a take a long time, perhaps even bleeding over into the next president’s term (and i hope to god that next president is a democrat). so do not assume that everything he proposes will happen! and voting is not our only way to participate in the government. protest. lobby. fight. don’t just accept a trump victory. if he wins, we need to fight harder than ever. we can’t give up. we can mitigate the effects of a trump presidency, but we need to fight.

millennials are a powerful group. we can make our voices heard. i know it’s scary. but it’s more important than ever to fight. don’t give trump an easy victory. fight as hard as you can for the entire 4 years he might be president. and help each other, protect each other. lift up your head and fight together. it’s easy to be discouraged, but the fight is not over.

i’m scared, too. i’m scared for my life. and take the time you need to take a deep breath and get away from everything for a little while. but in the end, if trump wins, we cannot make that easy for him. people are making a trump presidency seem like doomsday right now, but congress, checks and balances, and the actions of people – like us – can stop most of it from happening. the only bad thing that is really guaranteed to happen under a trump presidency is the appointment of some conservative supreme court justices (but even then congress has to approve them).

so tl;dr: if trump wins, the fight is not over. take a deep breath and hold your head high. he cannot, and will not, do everything that he’s proposed. so keep fighting and don’t let him destroy everything we’ve worked for.

Sometimes it’s okay to give yourself a pat on the back and say, ‘That was cool. That made me feel good.’
