Fitting post from Tumblr for tonight:

I can’t wait to wake up in a dystopian young adult novel tomorrow. I BETTER get the aggressively perfect boyfriend that comes with it.

I feel the need to apologize to all my friends in other countries. If this election goes as it seems to be, I'm sorry for all the harm Trump's America is going to do.

This election is terrifying.

Seriously. I was scared, but I didn't really, really think it could happen...

I'm sick.

I know, this really isn't looking good. :\

I keep thinking it's going to turn around, but it's quickly becoming too late for that.

Yeah. Say good-bye to any rights we had.

Yeeeeeeep. By electing him, people are saying his behavior is perfectly fine.

Can you imagine how he will act as president? With all that power behind him?

We are so screwed.

It's not just Trump. He's a republican house and senate.

Anyone from another country willing to adopt an American who's desperate?

Not gonna lie...after Brexit went through, I had very little doubt that this wouldn't happen. S:

There was another joke from Tumblr, something about America needing to top British on embarrassing political things...

I can't imagine Trump is interested in governance. So we'll get his foreign policy, such as it is, and Pence's domestic policy, which is terrifying.

We can but work against it, but jiminy fucking Christmas.

I wonder if he thought much beyond winning?

And terrifying indeed. I slept poorly last night thinking about it...

This is just surreal. >:(

Seriously.

I just started watching Designated Survivor a couple evenings ago. I'm only one ep in, but love it. I hadn't thought I'd hope it would happen though... (If you haven't seen it: Kiefer Sutherland stars as a lower-level cabinet member who is suddenly appointed President of the United States after a catastrophic attack on the US Capitol during the State of the Union.)
