I don't think the Dems will take the House either.

There's a huge rightward shift in Pennsylvania. Even solid bastions like NY and VA moved right by about 5 points. California wasn't able to flip the Republican seats that they'd lost in the last election.

I know Trump will want to make an example of San Francisco and send in his ICE agents in January. That will play well with his base.

Worried about Matilda's boyfriend who was born in Nicaragua but moved here when he was 4.

It feels clear to me that Trump's (and Vance's) incessant misogyny was a big selling point. In fact, it is the point. Dominating and controlling and demeaning women is their agenda, and it has a lot of supporters.

I can't believe 23% of Black men voted for Trump. So apparently they forgot about Charlottesville, and Trump condoning White Supremacy groups? That Trump will have no checks on police brutality and black men will be killed with impunity?

And Latino men who feel secure in this country even though Trump is threatening mass deportations and referred to Puerto Rico as garbage.

I was telling someone this morning that after the 2016 election I looked at photographs of lynchings. The ones where the dead body is hanging from the tree and all the white faces are smiling and having a party, and they brought their kids along. And I just thought, "These people haven't changed. That's who Americans are."

I've spent the last decade thinking hard about this country's racist history, but I have apparently underestimated the misogyny.

I know as a white male and living in CA I'm in a relatively safe area, but I'm also atheist and queer, which are not welcome.

I don't want my country to be like this, but it is.

I don't want to run away, but I'm going to make sure my Canadian citizenship is in order so that there is some sort of emergency exit path.

I'm just sick.

I’m actually sick. Barely kept breakfast down.

I’m just keeping my door closed at work and letting f bombs fly, because seriously? Fuck white people. Fuck fuck fuck them!

I think things may need to crash and burn as fast as possible to have any hope of getting things back at midterms. Like full crazy cakes fascism from him.

Sadly, I don't think even full crazy cakes fascism would stop some people. He's going to have to crash the economy (which really, heavy tariffs might do) before some people will turn on him.

I wonder if there's anything Biden and company can do between now and the inauguration to put up some guardrails. Not that it will matter, probably, since the assholes are happy to break any law.

I don't think it's ALL that we are. But certainly a dark and constant thread. No government would allow me to immigrate because I need benefits. Sure glad I did all that work trying to prove that voting works. Really thinking about quitting that, because it doesn't. not the way we do it anyway. Really feel like my life, never the most happening thing ever, is all but over now.

Probably by the time we would have had the midterms, PDA will not exist anyway. an instructive 15 years....

It's time for Biden to test the limits of the ruling that something isn't illegal if POTUS does it.

My therapist warned me she might have to run for the bathroom to barf, because she had been barfing all morning.

At vet. $1012 in tests. Dog is as sick as the rest of us.

I've worked so hard and sacrificed so much to support this stupid fucking election.

I have the Stardew Valley 1.6 update on consoles, my niece's 16th birthday party this weekend, and LEGO sets to put together. One foot in front of the other, I guess?
