Two days in and I still can't wrap my head around it

Somehow, I'm still pretending this is not real in my head. I feel a lot like Ian McEwan, who writes, "Brexit, the most pointless, masochistic ambition in our country's history, is done".

I still cannot understand voting yourself away from a union built on the rubble of a wartorn and divided Europe, a union based on solidarity, freedom, human rights, and peace. A union in which historic perennial enemies became friends and wars became unthinkable.

I'm trying to cling to my hopes for Scotland.

I hope the Scots can break free, too. Friends of friends who work for parliament say there is some very serious consideration.

Hahaha that makes a lot of sense, given the sentiments that most likely lead to Brexit...
