Don’t make yourself miserable.
Try to remember that these midterms are going to be a shitshow by Republican design, and that making liberals suffer is part of the point. They are miserable people and they don’t actually love company, they just want everyone else to be as miserable as they are because they’re, y’know, assholes. I know that’s not as succinct as the cliché, but it’s more accurate.
Pop songwriter/producer Glen Ballard had many hits, including several No. 1s, with a broad array of artists in the ’90s, but this was probably the biggest.

Lead singer Chynna Phillips, daughter of John and Michelle Phillips of the Mamas and the Papas, said she wrote the lyrics based on her drug and alcohol rehab experience. (For those who’ve forgotten, Carnie and Wendy Wilson are Brian’s daughters.) Their eponymous album included two more No. 1 hits, but the band broke up after a second album. They have periodically reunited for special events and holiday albums.
