I'm sorry to hear you're having a tough day. I'm not the praying kind, but sending good vibes, for all they're worth.

Obviously, Steve, that was the result of trump praying directly to Jesus

Jonah and the Whale https://collections.artsmia.org/art/1243/

a (sculpture), b (base)
Flannagan's bronze sculpture represents the Old Testament parable of the prophet Jonah, who, having disobeyed God, was cast overboard by his fellow fishermen during a violent storm at sea, swallowed by a whale (fish), and disgorged unharmed three days later after praying for redemption. For Flannagan, the theme of Jonah and the whale embodied more than merely a didactic religious allegory, but a culmination of a lifelong exploration of the universal mysteries of life, death, and rebirth, a motif common among his mature works. Here, in an unconventional and highly personal interpretation, he depicts Jonah within the belly of the whale, enclosed as if in a womb, awaiting rebirth to the world of the living.

I did, too. I remember kneeling on the ground praying with the congregation when Gulf War 1 started bc my pastor was certain the End Was Nigh (he was generally awesome, so I was terrified. He was pushed out by the increasingly fundie congregation...)

I am praying that this is a crisis I will have to deal with. I will say I would lean toward wearing my Guardians gear when I am out and about. Cleveland, for better or worse, is the city I live in.
