Yep, same. Green Mountain is a fantastic option.

Welcome to the future. A future that me, and many Americans who put their faith in science, have been staring at in

And Hillary wins the popular vote too. More people voted for her than Trump.

It’s women, too. It is the scary amount of women who voted for Trump. It’s America. It’s racism against the uppity non-whites and their allies and sexism, both outward and internalized.

Always thought I’d see fascism come to America in a cool way. Like Nazis from the moon descending to earth in giant swastika-shaped spaceships or maybe shock troops from Russia parachuting into my high school like the villains in Red Dawn.

You’ve marched right on to the bargaining stage, then? I’m still grappling with denial.

ETA DISMISS THE TROLLS

Kind words are welcome, but they won’t change anything at this point. My life in America is over as far as I see it. The racists and bigots won.

Goddamn. I started this day at 4:45 a.m. with so much hope and optimism, worked the polls all day, just dropped off the supplies and I come home to this. I literally feel sick to my stomach. How is this happening? I am angry and terrified.

I am just going to keep saying this everywhere, because I have zero other words but I feel this knot in my stomach:
