Enormously so. Partly in case he wins, and partly, because I live in Scotland, in case he loses, takes Fashrages advice and retires here to Xcheat atX play golf.
Yep and no chance of getting to sleep on 5th November either.The noise outside my window is like Gettysburg.
If it's close in the States tonight as that was, we have to hope the goodies win again
Honestly I feel okay right now. I think there will be some bluster from the right but I am confident the feds and ready to tackle any serious (illegal) challenged. More worried about having enough seats in a fluid dynamics course next semester. Hoping my optimism isn't a serious case of naivete.
As far as I can work out, Georgia will be the first swing state to have its polls closed. Voting there ends at midnight UK time - do we get an exit poll directly after that?
There was a cop at my local polling place. No one else. We aren’t a swing state anymore, though. Went for Obama in 2008, that was the last time FL was in play.
Yep. Being on the brink of a world where oligarchs, misinformationists and fucknuts get to walk all over the law and due process in broad daylight ain't good for morale.
Frantic. Now actually stopping myself from reading journo/pundits feeds - they know no more than the rest of us & it's just making it worse.
Also trying hard not to catastrophise.
And, if I'm feeling that way in UK, I can only imagine how my US friends are tonight.
I've often wondered what it must feel like to be that prisoner waiting for the results of his final appeal, unable to affect it, where failure might mean death but success freedom.
I think the world very much needs to know our national broadcaster has puppy live going on where a litter of ten border collies is in the process of learning how to walk while being happily unaware their body structure is awkwardly ill-suited for the job. https://areena.yle.fi/1-72251830
No. We won 3-1 in the end. Admittedly, it was a bit nervy after they scored to go 0-1 up. But in the end, we wiped the floor with them - the second best team in Germany. 😉 #celtic
Very much so. I felt confident yesterday but now I just don’t know. I’m in Sweden and was planning on pulling an all-nighter but it might get too torturous for my nerves.
A reasonable frame of mind this morning would be to sort of vaguely want to puke. Me on the other hand, I'm teetering on the edge of a day of stress eating.
Can you order a cheese burger, fried chicken pizza?

I'm halfway up the ulna.
I’m orangely anxious
I've had enough of this -Brexit, Putin, COVID Tories Netanyahu, Hamas Trump
Climate....

and muttering “Please don’t let Trump get in again!” from time to time.
No, then, not anxious.
It is unforgivable that Trump and the GOP put their country in this position. Americans are effectively jurors at the polls this time.
🎵 Aruba, Jamaica, ooh, I wanna take you to
Bermuda, Bahama, come on pretty mama
Key Largo, Montego
Baby, why don't we go?
Down to Kokomo 🎵
In the series, General Mark Naird (Steve Carell) sings the tune when he's a bit nervous
Obviously they wont get inside anyplace with firearms, but its still quite jarring to hear. 🤦♀️
Here in MA we are blue as can be.
Und darauf Prost!

Not any more!
Does that answer your question? 😁
Which just make me feel stressed and out of control.
Or Yes.
Or no
For me
Can you order a cheese burger, fried chicken pizza?
😳
Yes, but no.
OK, yes anxious.
It reminds me of the ultra Tory years. Let's hope this one is similarly flushed down the toilet!
Still can't believe people shot themselves so willingly in the face then - still can't believe they keep doing it.
So, yes, nervous. This matters too much.
