And then worry.
Non-American, though (rightfully) heavily invested in this election.
Since I’m an otherwise powerless observer, we took our family to Tokyo Disneyland to help and distract us until the results are in.
Really feels like a surreal Last Supper moment, NGL.
That’s going to be a long trip, results probably won’t be fully tallied for a week at best.
It’s a week in Japan in total, then a couple more weeks travelling Asia. Trying to cram in as many distractions as possible
There’s a good chance it will be called tonight. It’s the official tallies they’re preparing people to wait for since that’s the “delay” Trump tried to abuse in 2020.
Do you know what day it is?
Remember, remember this 5th of November, The Jan 6 treason and plot. I know of no reason the Jan 6 treason, Should ever be forgot.
Yeah— I’m going to curl up and watch V for Vendetta…
Let’s go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for this to all blow over
Watch MSNBC, take a drink every time they throw to Steve Kornacki.
Wake up from your coma in 2025. ;)
I love you and I hate you. How dare you tell the world what I’m doing!
As you watch the results remember the “red mirage” - a well known phenomenon where Republican candidates take an early lead because Republican votes get reported early. This is simply because Republicans tend to live in smaller towns and low-population areas, which finish their vote counting sooner because there are fewer ballots. Democrats tend to live in denser urban areas that take longer to count, so their votes show up later; this is known as the “blue shift”.
You can see the red mirage happening right now… 45 minutes ago Trump had 23 electoral votes and Harris 7. Now it’s Trump 95 Harris 35. This should even out as the counts from the cities start to roll in.
Trump is planning to declare victory early in the night before the blue shift occurs, so his followers can turn off the TV and go to bed happy. Then when the final count shows Harris on top they will “know” the election was stolen because in their minds they “saw” him win.
this election is not good for our health
The election day ground game is crucial! Don’t waste your time just worrying. If you’re in the US, look here: https://events.democrats.org/ It’s not too late!
Or, as it is the Fifth of November, watch V for Vendetta.
I have a bottle of wild turkey and some gummies. If it looks bad, I will just drug myself into another universe
I’m refreshing the map constantly
Edit- this has been a mistake
We’re on a Disney movie marathon. First was The Great Mouse Detective and we just finished The Sword in the Stone. What should we watch next?
Tangled is always fun.
The reprise of “Mother Knows Best” gives me chills every time
Treasure planet! Or Atlantis
Treasure Planet it is!
And then Atlantis.
I’m about to go get a bottle of whiskey and try to get through this
You didn’t already get
