Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am pretty sure that I am voting Jill Scott, because I agree with her the most. But the decision is a lot easier in NY, where it would be shocking if it went republican

Our wings are not tired.

Living in a swing state means not even looking at other party candidates. I am a strong Obama supporter so it wasn't really an issue, but Florida is way too close.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Ohio feels you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am pretty sure that I am voting Jill Scott

I would love it if you wrote in Jill Scott, but I bet you mean Jill Stein.

So I woke up and it was dark and rainy and I didn't want to go to yoga, and I didn't want to go, and then I went!

As does NC. Which is kind of refreshing. 2008 aside, the Dems rarely even get close.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

They're saying that Pennsylvania isn't swing anymore, but I'm not taking a chance.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I forget who said it, but I remember reading an article that argued that the responsible thing to do was to vote for the least-worst major candidate if you live in a swing state, but vote for whatever third-party you agreed with if you lived in a solid state, to get them more funding.

WI is very swingy right now, so I know I'm voting for Obama, Baldwin (still outraged about losing Feingold to that douche Johnson) and Zerban--even if I know there's little chance of him unseating Ryan.

Serial- I remember when we moved here from IL 5 years ago thinking "Yay, swing state, my vote actually matters." But as this election has dragged on, all I can think is "Dear God, will the phone ever stop ringing?" We must get at least 5 robocalls from Republicans and their Super PACS a day, plus a couple live calls a week. On the flip side we get one or two live calls a week from the Dems, plus we get someone knocking on the door about once a month.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Blah blah, ER, blah, pissy doctor, blah, amazing nurse, long philosophical conversation, nice doctor who can't fix tings, blah blah, admit?

The nurse, with whom I must have chatted 30min straight (she was *not* moving, but that's all good) thanked me for being a good patient despite doctors not doing their bit, because this last nice doctor is about to graduate, and I'm contributing to her positive experiences of patients with chronic pan who require large doses of pain meds.

That doesn't get me anything other than admitted, but hey.
