Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I am taking lots of deep breaths.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Love the way the Daily Show announced the result.

I want more confirmation too. Like Romney saying "Yep, he won." I want to see that narrow-eyed glower of fury.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

But I have to say, with Sherrod Brown's win in Ohio, it's reassuring to see that throwing nothing but piles of outside-donor-cash at a race doesn't ensure a win.

Brown's opponent was the shiftiest, most flat-out criminal jackhole. Fortunately that was pretty clear.

For the second Presidential Election in a row, I got the results from The Daily Show.

Thrive to spite them

Matt thanks I've been making stupid mistakes like that a lot recently.

I think this increase in medication has both made me gain weight and lose brain cells.

Yes. Backed by a shitload of Karl Rove and Koch Brothers money.

Oh my god, me too.

Relatedly, a high-school classmate on FB just posted a furious screed, which reads in part: "Really Ohio?! This sucks! Have any of u visited a communist country? If not, u will now live in one!"

I only hope it's one where 42-year-olds SPELL OUT THEIR FUCKING WORDS.

I just did a victory dance in my kitchen. A sparkler was involved.
