Hello tumblr! What utter madness has happened in the months since I last logged on?

I turned off anonymous messages and I’ve noticed a 100% drop in death threats.

Trump now accounts for half of all the country’s impeachments.

Turns out a rat that rides a bear is also an option.

I definitely picked my Gloomhaven class way too early without realizing that psychic rat was an option.

Trump is banned from Twitter. Mr. Trump, welcome to tumblr.

I’m not assimilating, I’m just living with a Christian now.

I’m celebrating Christmas for the first time and I didn’t realize grown ass adults had to just keep their presents under a tree and wait for the big day. This is such bullshit, the presents are right there.

OH GOD, THE FLOUNDERING, I CAN’T TAKE ANY MORE FLOUNDERING.

Guess who got screenshotted!

(FWIW I don’t really care if Biden goes down, I had him as a default pick but I’m not terribly attached to him. Also Quayle didn’t run in 2000.)

Wait why does the box weigh this much.

I’ve become a board game guy. I ordered Gloomhaven. Seems simple enough.

Thoughts on Robert Cahaly prediction?

The Trafalgar group openly says they give Trump extra points because they assume some people are too scared to admit they like Trump. It’s essentially a fraudulent poll.

Do you think the SC will interfere with the election results?

Not really, no. Bush v. Gore was unique in that it was about a recount. If Gore got a few hundred more votes in New Hampshire then Florida wouldn’t have mattered.

Do you think results will be clear enough on election night? I've heard that with so much mail and early voting, it could take days, and the divide between those and in-person voting between republicans and democrats could give reps a bump early on.

95% of early votes will be counted on election day. Florida has already started counted. I don’t think many, if any, key states will be so close that it comes down to the other 5%.

re: being calm about this election, i kind of feel the same way, but i'm not sure what to make of what's likely to happen after? probably we can count on some degree of violence on the public scale, but what happens if he just decides he won't accept the results? does he have the means - with the people who've been enabling him all this time - to continue running roughshod over the 'rules'? like he has been? is it alarmist to be genuinely concerned the election won't matter either way?

He doesn’t get to decide whether or not he leaves office. He doesn’t really break rules so much as he breaks norms, and support for him has limits. When he floated delaying the election McConnell shut him down within a day.
