Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

And over on FB, I've got a teenage friend who is Black and bi and about to move to Florida because his dad is there and he can't afford NYC any longer, and he is panic attacking and no longer wanting to live because he feels so particularly, personally repudiated. What the fuck are we supposed to tell any of them?

Tell him to move to Florida, vote as soon as he can, and drag all his like-minded friends to the polls with him!

I had to turn off CNN, now watching a dumb movie - not even sure of the name of it. I don't expect sleep in my near future, but I just can't watch the talking heads any more.

How can I be sick to my stomach and yet still want to stress eat?

Our wings are not tired.

Pennsylvania! Really, don't go red. Why are these states so close.

I just can't believe this. I have to look at my options. I can't look at these people anymore.

Turns out Nate Silver was wrong after all. Just not the way everybody thought.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Nate Silver and Sam Wang, very very wrong

New Hampshire just flipped Blue by 18 votes. 21% of the vote remaining.

So I guess a lot of people lied to pollsters, refused to talk to pollsters, or were ignored by pollsters.

I suspect a lot of people from rural areas are coming to the polls who don't normally vote or get considered by pollsters at all, as happened in 2004.

Yeah, it sounds like a lot of people voted for Trump felt guilty about it.

Honestly, I want to give the biggest "fuck you" to all the Republicans who knew Trump was a disaster waiting to happen but still supported him anyway or just hedged instead of speaking out against him.
