The election.

I think Florida is going blue! Look we're baby blue right now. http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/201 ... -forecast/


I will be so happy to not be getting 20 political phone calls a day.

OMG I didn't know about this smiley :baby:

Now back to your normal spamming program.

I will be happy the election is over. Florida has been going back and forth on going Blue vs red, but hopefully it will be going blue.

I can't wait to find out if I'm going to ever get out of bed again.

Every time I look at FiveThirtyEight I get my hopes up. I think I should stop looking just in case we get Drumpf'd!

Maybe Menty will come back to TK now that he doesn't have to argue with Trump voters on Facebook!

(I think of all major world events in terms of how likely they are to make Menty post in the MF, sorry for not taking it seriously enough.)

At least now we know we only have a few years left to live we can stop worrying and do what we want!

Remote Irish island seeks Americans fleeing Donald Trump presidency

I could get dual citizenship there thanks to my Irish-born paternal grandparents...

It's actually genuinely distressing me coming online seeing so much hate being spewed (by Trump voters.) I know I should be used to it after fifteen years at TK but this seems more serious.

“There, peeping among the cloud-wrack above a dark tor high up in the mountains, Sam saw a white star twinkle for a while. The beauty of it smote his heart, as he looked up out of the forsaken land, and hope returned to him. For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach.”

― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

I know everyone's still feeling like shit about all this, but I refuse to let the election of the orangutan keep me down forever.
