Prepare yourself. Tears, our little salt water droplets, are a finite resource.
1. Gather all of your tears into a tiny jar. The environment is going to shit, save what water you can.
2. Instead of building a wall, create a salt water moat. This will help others realize that by kicking everyone out...WE ARE TRAPPED INSIDE WITH EACH OTHER.
3. Frame it in glass. Imagine what a beautiful DIY centerpiece it would be, surrounded by the words 'You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean in a drop.' Philosophize the shit out of that conversation starter. Better than talking about politics.
4. Feed it to an ant. Surely they can gain some sustenance from our bodily fluids. Bonus: being able to use the phrase 'bodily fluids' in a sentence without the phrase 'axe murderer'
5. Let your tears dry out in the sun. Use the resulting salt to bring the metaphor 'I'm feelin' salty' to life.
6. Start SALT talks between the US and North Korea. The Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT) were two conferences and international treaties during the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union to discuss issue of arms control. #staywoke
7. Cry directly onto a patch of dirt. There was a miners' strike called the Salt of the Earth, so your tears can start revolutions! (Disclaimer: tears did not start the miners' revolution)
8. Make salt puns. Talk about gun control and how we need to stop our children from dying in schools.
9. Check the eyes of all criers! Find the truth behind the legend that says if you're crying out of sadness, the first tear comes from your left eye and if you're crying out of happiness first tear comes from your right eye. Separate your friends from the sadists.
10. Contradict Fergie. Yes Ferg, big girls DO cry. And boys. Who needs fragile masculinity when we just need each other.
11. Recognize that crying is healthy and a way of bonding community. Be there for others. Mobilize. Here's what you can do to help: https://www.theodysseyonline.com/12-things-to-do-if-youre-scared-and-upset-about-trump-becoming-president
