The closer tomorrow gets, the more and more worried that this is going to turn into another Bush/Gore fiasco.
I really, REALLY hope that Ohio isn't the Florida of this election.
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Check it, apparently a judge may rule that ballots need to be handcounted in OH because of the software "patch" installation on certain machines by the SoS.
The OH SoS needs to be in jail. Period.

I also don't really want to talk about this, but I'm not at peace with how torn Tim is on Obama/Romney. I feel like anyone who doesn't think Romney is a shambling horror is directly attacking me as a woman. And all of our queer friends. (And what the hell, trans* rights, goddamn it, hello???) And the middle class. AND DOGS GOD DAMN IT.
I know he's more moderate than I am; I knew that when we got together. I don't expect him to be a mirror of my views. But then part of me does. And then I wonder if he secretly thinks I'm a socialist Muslim gay-married wingnut. t edit I MIGHT BE.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
My grandmother made pie crusts with lard. They were locally famous pies, because they were that good. So I say, lard.
All I have to say about politics right now is, I have just eaten an entire pint of Ben&Jerry's ice cream and I barely remember doing it.

Finally, I should say that when Obama is re-elected and we are all forced to gay-marry each other, I would gay-marry all of you.
Except, I guess, the guys. Sorry. I blame Obama.

Trust my rage
Steph, I feel the same way. I mean, not about Tim, but about my pro-Romneyfriends. Honestly, I don't see how decent or intelligent people can see otherwise. I know it's terrible to feel that way but it is how I feel. So...you are not alone.

I have trouble understanding how decent people can see Obama as an imperfect good rather than a really horrible lesser evil. In case that provides perspective.

I learned to make pie crusts with all shortening and no butter, not chilling anything, overworking it with my hands and dusting liberally with flour when rolling out. Always tasted fine to me, though I doubt it would win awards.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Yeah, I get this. I'm just not happy with anyone who is willing to sell my body out for an imaginary tax cut. That's how I'm seeing it.
I try to keep in mind that I'm usually the queen of hyperbole, but that seems to be the reality of it. I can birth me some rape babies in return for Kristen and Tim to get a tax cut because that will help them...buy me a bigger birthday present or something? Just, no.
