I woke up this morning and couldn't quite believe it, still. I spent most of the morning waiting for the other shoe to drop a la 2000.
I'm so glad Prop 30 made it. I don't envy CA voters.
Some people juggle geese!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I think I may buy myself a Happy Election Watch (it will really be my Christmas present to me).

I have seen Nate Silver interviewed multiple times and seen his growth. He was kind of bad at it around 2008, but he has come to his own up to this year. He has been great over the past month or so. Classic geek - which is the kind of thing I find endearing.
tommy,
I'm not sure I have the heart to quote the vileness of RL, but check out tom tomorrow's twitter feed. He's covering it.

Dooo eeet, msbelle. That's a nice one--has a bit of an art deco feel to it.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Nate Silver talking about statistics and polls reminds me of Owen talking about Legos and movies.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I love this page [link] of reactions--they would not have been happy with Romney much either--Obama just makes us a bit closer to the end times, but we're up a creek no matter which of the major parties is in it with us. So crazy there's no requirement to react.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Wow. That is...a LOT of racism.

Hahahahaha! My conservative cousins are now talking about moving to Italy--where their sister is living with her husband stationed in the Navy. I was quick to point out that they have universal health care and strict gun control. And that their last prime minister was indicted for tax fraud and bribery.
