Has Merriam-Webster made ‘doom scrolling’ a word (phrase?) yet? If not, I assume it will be there eventually. I hate it so much and it’s so hard to avoid.

Your call is important to us. We are currently experiencing an unusually high call volume...

You, me, and a few million people, my friend.

I have a conservative coworker who thinks that democrats will riot or something if we win (or lose?) and I read the same thing on CNN. I mean, that really seems like projection. Like if your boyfriend thinks you’re cheating, it’s because that’s what he is doing. I guess they believe the antifa BS?

My plan is the opposite. I’m gonna check-out tomorrow after work (make an elaborate dinner, play video games or watch movies until I fall asleep), then on Wednesday morning open the Washtington Post to find out what happened over night (if the local militia doesn’t wake me up in the middle of the night bombing my…

From one of your southern neighbors (who is really nice and normal I promise!)... are you like, looking for a ROOMMATE?

Well, my American friends, best wishes for tomorrow from your upstairs neighbour. Good luck, best wishes, stay safe, keep calm, carry on, toodle pip, stiff upper lip, and all that rot. We’re pulling for you to snatch your country back from the short-fingered vulgarian and his drooling minions. Take care.

I hate the Republican party and especially the Texas GOP. But I can see how Joe Straus being against this tactic makes some sort of sense. The man is famously the last of the “moderate” Republicans, who was beloved by a lot of Texas politicians on both sides of the aisle. Dude was all about civility. He was pro-public…

They’re looking a few weeks into the future at the very real probability of a President Biden, and they’re worried that the grift is coming to an end. But since we love to signal boost and donate to “moderate” Republicans like Kasich and the folks behind the Lincoln Project, they’re lining up the next income stream.

Excuse me, assholes? NOW you care?

Please by the power of Baby Yoda I hope Jaime wins and kicks Lady G to the curb.

That was my feeling way back in 2015. He didn’t want to be president, he just wanted a running start to launch a new right wing cable news platform. Now he’s going to need to compete with a far crazier Fox News and OANN, the outlet that makes Fox News look like Mother Jones.

Yep. Our household of 2 independent voters in a swing state received no less than 6 absentee ballot applications from the state GOP telling us Trump wanted us to vote by mail. More recently, the GOP decided that my husband is Black (he’s not), so while I get partisan mailers aimed at white suburban women with pictures…

My state literally put the drop boxes at police stations and fire houses. Literally already paid security right there at both places

Yeah, I probably should have realized that was rhetorical. But the venting helps me.

None of the last 4 years has been about logic and reason. Sometimes I still piss into the wind out of sheer habit.

He is convinced that if Trump loses, there will be mass rioting and the cities will burn.

I live in a house divided (waiting for the inevitable LTMF) responses. I originally planned on staying in a fancy downtown suite for election night until a friend decided to host a small gathering. (I’m kind of disappointed that I cancelled, but I need to save the money). Before cancelling, I invited a friend, also…

If he doesn’t want to go, let all the civilians leave then build a wall around the White House and turn it into the fanciest Federal Penitentiary in the country. We can build a new modern Presidential estate on the grounds where the current Trump hotel in DC is when we seize all his assets to pay for the wall.

If you plan on trying to steal an election, it seems wise to put yourself in the most secure facility possible, shore up defenses, and keep your finger on the button.
