Don't forget to breathe

Tonight is the night my friends. I can almost see my friends back home glued to their computers looking at interactive maps, trying to be first ones to either cheer or boo.

It will forever blow my mind that the race is even close. Truth is, for all the shit that the Dems deserve, how bad Kamala is, and very well may be, they are teddy bears compared to the Draconian populists.

I'm going to go ahead and say, regardless of who wins, nobody wins anyways. The country is so divided, whatever may be the result will only end up in riots, fights, and possibly another January 6.

At any rate, it's good political circus. We can sit here and pretend they care about us, the tax payers, and cheer in excitement as if our team wins, but the truth is, the voters are just tools to them, and after elections, we are not really that useful.

All that being said... I'm probably going to stay up myself. I might surrender to Morpheus only when the irreversible tendency has been called.

I guess we'll see..

If this site isn't in error, it seems the populist Trump has received the necessary 270 electoral votes to win election as President of the USA.

Now you can sleep.

Thanks!

here we go again! lol

Demagogues are always difficult to beat or even understand how they gain so much support. Yet it keeps happening repeatedly throughout history. There is just something in us that wants to accept the easy answers that hate brings. Let's just hope this particular demagogue is defeated.

Yeah... I'm not getting anything done this morning. My eyes are glued to the election map.

we should take bets on when is the next impeachment, right?

Ah well. Prepare for chaos. I just hope he's not as bad as I fear. He talks a lot of bullshit that he can't actually do, but then he doesn't even understand what is allowed. I worry more about those around him. Musk will be even more insufferable now. I'm so glad I got of Twtr.

Stay well.

As fas as I know, Musk is going to have a position in government, which blows my f... mind!

Likewise. The guy is mainly an unfunny troll these days. He is bound to funnel more money to his companies. He can tell Putin about it next time he calls.
