The newscaster from the local TV station that does the news for the radio station I listen to in the car was very carefully saying things like "They attacked each other" and "it seemed kind of even" and "there was a weird tone to the debate, Rosie O'Donnell was even mentioned!" Oh, and "polls are saying technically that Hillary won, but 27% called it for Trump." Yeah, technically. Sigh.
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

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

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Gudanov, what a relief!
Sue, in your shoes I'd likely be gnawing a limb off to get there.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Okay! Watching clips of the debate. Want to punch him in his face. OTOH, almost worth it for seeing Hillary laugh in his face.

27% of, like, people? That sounds about right.

Sue, that totally sucks. I know UK immigration seems basically insane right now (I am sure you could get a visa to work in the US, but I know a bunch of people married to British citizens who are having immigration troubles.)

I'm now watching clips from last night's Daily Show, and Trevor Noah got offended on behalf of "third world country" airports. I do enjoy him.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Yeah, I don't watch TDS every night now that Jon Stewart is gone, but I really enjoyed Trevor Noah last night.

One of these days I'm going to have to binge watch his stuff.
I feel like I should report that I was going to go to Raley's for mayonnaise (that I thought I needed for the deviled eggs, but since my hard-boiled eggs were neither hard nor boiled, I didn't even need to do that. If only I had known!) but Waze told me Trader Joe's was 0 minutes out of my way, so I went there and bought a grocery bag of pumpkin spice stuff (granola, O's, coconut body butter. I love the seasonally scented body butter, possibly my favorite pumpkin product). Frugality fail.

Time for me to go out and buy some meds. My current bottle of delsym expired 1 year ago and while it seems to be working since 3 am, I need peak effectiveness. Guess I should shower and go.
I really thought I was getting better last night, even with the voice losing.
