"Hello babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. On the outside, babies, you've got a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies-"God damn it, you've got to be kind.”

I’m live streaming Allan Lichtman on YT now. He is leaning toward PA staying blue. But he is flabbergasted by a bunch of numbers in other states. So I don’t know if this is making me feel better or not lol.
Also, the MSNBC talking heads were saying how many millions of people did NOT vote in deeply blue places like CA & NY b/c their votes dont' really matter in the electoral collage. Just imagine if all those disenfranchised people votes and candidates had to actual stump there too
I’m spiraling and I can’t tell if it’s justified or not. We went to a friend’s house to watch the results and I just had to leave because I was not in a good head space.
Raises hand as one of those Dems who finally escaped Florida two years ago for NOVA.
My daughter did...just last week. Her house in Jacksonville just got an offer and likely sold today.
BUT...she moved to Boise. Darn military keeping them in the hellscape. And I have a ten-year-old granddaughter there (and a five year old one in Moscow, ID but at least she's close to Pullman and her step-mom is rabidly pro-reproductive rights so I'm feeling a *little* better for her, as long as son can cross the border with her without his ex the anti-vaxxer losing her shit.)
I’m doom spiraling. I stayed of social media all day, but as soon as I turned on the news it all seemed hopeless. It’s only 6:30 pm here and I feel like we’ve already lost.

Just turned off the Lichtman live stream. He was surprised NC was just called for Trump and sounds less optimistic. I think I’m going to head to bed soon. I don’t feel the same level of shock as I did in 2016 but I am so angry at people who think this awful human being is the solution to anything.
I don’t understand the “get it together”‘l comment.
Regardless if Harris wins, it’s very emotional and upsetting to me that so many people voted for Trump because what he has done in the past, what he blatantly has said he WILL do, what he has not said he will do, what he stands for….
