Me too. I feel shellshocked, as people used to say. And terrified for vulnerable people, including many whom I know and love. Hell, including me.
So, just how bad is life in Hungary?

I’m on the verge of panic. It’s not about me; it’s how do I protect my daughter now?

Just a reminder that all these news agencies don’t know actual results of any close states yet and have a perverse incentive to call states first. Also, remember in 2020 that several states were called for T**** and then later flipped to Biden as votes were counted. Basically, we won’t know the outcome tonight. Don’t panic.

I cannot take any more of this and it looks like things have mostly stalled for now anyway. I’m going to take a double dose of edibles, hope like hell it takes away the crippling anxiety that is tearing me apart, and try to get some sleep. Even if we win, this will have been a deeply shameful performance. I am utterly disgusted with my country and humanity in general right now.
Here’s hoping I wake up to a better tomorrow.

If I take this bus driver job, I don’t know how I’m gonna get through another Trump presidency, because marijuana is grounds for termination.

I think the hardest part about watching these last numbers come in is that it’s looking like Trump is going to win the popular vote for the first time.

Yeah, that millions of people have watched the last 8 years and are now more pro-trump than ever is terrifying in a way I can’t understand and am really scared to try to understand

On the one side you have a rapist and felon who wants to put RFK Jr in charge of your health and Elon Musk in charge of things, and wants to tank the economy with tariffs and mass deportations. On the other side you have an extremely well qualified and good person who people blame for milk being slightly more expensive.
I don’t know how any of this is possible and I don’t know how I will live through 4 more years of this bullshit made infinitely worse by someone who knows the system and how to completely destroy it for their own gain.

Oh shit.
Best of luck to all you Americans, because it seems like you will need it so, so much. 
And so do we, apparently.

It looks like he’s winning.
I don’t know how to survive the next four years if he does. On one hand, it shows that Nazi-level hate is popular in this country. Calls for mass deportations, concentration camps, censorship, and so on. On the other, I’m likely to lose what health care I have, and have it outlawed. On the feet, the anti-vaxxers would be setting public health policy, and climate change deniers setting environmental policy. It’s hard to imagine a worse outcome in American politics.

CNN called PA. It’s over. There’s basically zero realistic path to victory now. I’m fucking done.
