I am reading Twitter and am so angry about the (fully expected) voter suppression going on, especially in Georgia and Detroit.

I am comforted by the text-banking, especially today when I've been able to tell people where their polling places are or answer questions. It feels like a really concrete good that I did.

I appreciate the efforts of all the volunteers this year. I do believe it makes a difference.

Both my sons have voted now. Also a couple friends messaged us pictures of their stickers. One guy, a coach who works with DH had never voted before, and he is like 50! Not only did he register and vote, he took his mom with him too and messaged us the picture. DH's siblings, who are lax about such things, also messaged us their pictures.

I saw this Massachusetts political ad and thought it might be appreciated.

Our boil water advisory has been lifted! Woo hoo! I'm going to go do a bunch of things that involve ingesting tap water.

Damn, it's gonna get WILD up in this joint!

Pfft. That'd be the shortest ballot I ever did in California.

I want Jon B. to know that Ranked Voting was causing all kinds of havoc at the poll this morning.

Gods, the ballot was so long this year. And the Chinese granny poll workers were already Over the Ranked Voting nonsense.

Timelies all!

It's been a day, I tell you. First I had to deal with a snarf-and-barf from Nova.(luckily on the kitchen floor) Mr. S's school was closed for voting, so we got a babysitter. After she arrived, and I showed her around, I went to my car. Where I learned that my windows had been down all night, during the rain.(Thanks to Mr. S, no doubt.) Voted, which took longer than expected due to lines.

And tonight I have to give Chaos Boy a bath by myself.

Now I'm missing walking over to Xavier with my drvier's license just in case and being told by the matriarchal poll workers to put it away, you don't need ID to vote. Those were the days.

Damn, it's gonna get WILD up in this joint!

It did! I drank a glass, rinsed my toothbrush really well (because pouring unflavored seltzer on it hasn't really been doing the trick), and gave the cat a full, clean bowl of cold tap water, which he immediately drank from, so I think he noticed the difference from the warm-ish water from the kettle he'd been getting. TAP WATER PARTY!!!

I just made a texting pact with my BFF, who is going to text me election results throughout my the night. And he said if I get stressed out and need to step out of the Psych Furs show and call him, I can. He understands, since I was at his place on election night in 2016 and couldn't get out of bed the next day. (And had the luxury of not getting out of bed because I was on vacation.)

Now I'm getting ready to pick out some anti-Trump buttons to wear to the show. I've got Wonder Woman punching Trump out, Lock Him Up, and a handful of others to choose from, since a friend of mine from high school quit her job and sells them full-time in Washington Square Park.

I'll be mentally holding hands with y'all.
