My first vote was on one of those! Very satisfying. (the tech in me feels the paper scan ballots are much better)

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.

The levers were fun. The push button machines that felt like video poker were awful. I like the scannable paper ballots we do here well enough. And that it's the same thing to mail in is nice. Getting the text that my mail-in ballot has been received and counted is pretty sweet.

I am waffling between watching the debate and going to the movies.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
I want to watch the debate, but I can't handle watching Trump speak in any capacity.

We're going to a concert (Boy George and Squeeze!), so we'll miss it live. I like to vote, but I'm doing it early this year. I still have hope for Harris/Walz.

I am 100% skipping the debate and waiting to see highlights and lowlights after. I don’t need to subject my blood pressure to all that.

Yes. That is a good feeling.
I have to watch the debate. I'll be wearing my Harris t-shirt and eating popcorn. I'm hoping my sister test negative today so she can join us. If not I am torn between going to her place to watch or staying here with Brendon. The last debate was so awful I need a stellar performance from her to erase the memory.

Wow! Fun!

Yeah, I've skipped all of them for a long time because of this (see also George W Bush but that seems mild in comparison) but for some reason I have FOMO about this one

I'm going to start watching the debate, but I don't know how much of Trump's ugly face and stupid lies I can stand. I'll have to see how it goes. I definitely don't have enough wine to get through much ....

That's where I'm at, I think. We don't really drink, but I might have rum somewhere...
