In a local, non-partisan race in which a very good friend of mine is running for re-election, well, he has won, or at least is well ahead of his challenger, with 45% of the votes counted. No way his challenger will catch up. This is a HUGE relief, because his challenger, while a well-intended and charming person, is hopelessly useless and unsavvy at politics, I mean HOPELESS and would be a NIGHTMARE if he had won.
Fuck. I came here in October of '95 when I was 23. I registered to vote shortly thereafter.. I voted all the fucking time here, even though I knew I was a voting masochist. But I did it anyway.

Please remember that no matter what happens tonight, Ted Cruz will still be a gigantic asshole and no one loves him. #Election2018
Looks like we flipped the 8th CD up here (the Ds will have 7 of our 10 seats), passed a gun control initiative, and a dedicated tax to increase training for local and state popo on how to deescalate potentially violent or violent. Although I want more, that would be piggish, and couldn't be having that kinda behave from a well-behaved hog.
This is all gonna turn to shit, ain't it?
Sorry, remain shit, I mean.
Maybe not all.
Like, for example, it was infrastructure week and the city re-paved the streets in my neighborhood.
Luxury!
Great, can those re-paved streets conduct serious, legitimate House investigations?
Well, no, but trips to the liquor store will be less rutty.
Always a bonus. Good for the engine mounts.
No. Not yet.
I saw a tweet today that said something like today feels like the entire country is waiting for one big biopsy result.
Amendment 4 passed in Florida. !.5 million ex felons can now vote.
Not that I typically hang out with ex felons, but the ones I know are trumpsters. So we can take that "win" with a grain of salt.
At least it is one more step toward dismantling our terrible prison system.
N.M. looks good. C.mon Xochitl!!!
AZ. less so, but Sinema and McSally are tied so far.
Xochitl is closing the gap! She was down 57/43 about 20 minutes ago, back to 51/49
Yay. Dang, this is a scary night.
Deb Haaland wins (woo hoo!), Xochitl may lose to the corrupt grifter : (

Shit. Iron Stache didn't win. And it looks like Beto didn't either. Fuck.
Lotta other assholes got fried though.
True.
That's wonderful.
Yay! HOUSE! (I would post some celebratory house music, but I don't know any that isn't horrible.)

Radical Socialist Kickboxing Lesbian wins!

Smoke rings in the aether? Don't look at me.
hey I got that pianer manual in the mail too-day, thanks!
Looks like someone set off an oil bomb.
[ yeah……..suuuuuuuuure ]
It could happen.
Electoral hoops in Georgia?
Nah, Biff is right, oil fire ring done by a certain National Lab.
So they say.
We used to do them small scale with a barrel full of diesel. Before it cost more than 50 cents a gallon, anyway. Big fun, little mushroom clouds.
Did the Sky God leave his mug on the coffee table?
