Even with running a terrible centrist capitulating candidate and the sheer amount of ugliness that was this election I sincerely thought this country was better than this. I served for it, I...I have nothing more to say. This is unreal.

I can't believe this. I just want to wake up tomorrow and it all be a bad dream.

If Clinton wins the popular vote (which she probably will) then the majority didn't vote for this.

It feels like they've already been suffering. If you're gay or brown in America the last year you may as well have a target on your back. This country sucks.

Aaand Clinton didn't give a concession speech, but is conceding. That was our candidate guys. The last line of defense against a fascist racist idiot.

Not even the largely ceremonial but still politically useful speech so as to set a new course/agenda for the dems. Nothing. Giving up like a coward, not fighting or even waiting for late ballots to arrive.

Im so glad we allowed the DNC to handpick our candidate for us over Sanders.

Recently enough that it all hitting at once is feeling like my blood is curdling. Ironically, it's not related to the election, they lived in the UK and had it planned out already. They talked about the subject enough that I knew to brace for it, at least.

This is sort of me right now. Just sort of feel dead, so I'm rolling with my natural emotional detachment to stay sane.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

One of their best fights yet. Results: Wow, I really did not expect Doomsday to win. These are usually super predictable based on stuff that'd make it seem like Hulk was a sure victor, but nope. Good poo poo.
