It is entirely possible for folks to have voted for Trump and not known a thing about his VP or his VP's policies, y'know. That's not much better, since it's uneducated voting, but I find it much easier to believe than the idea that, in a country where gay rights have been slowly-but-steadily pushing forward, more than half the country is practically salivating at the thought of torturing LGBTs.

Maybe I'm wrong.

ETA: To clarify, I'm not saying that there aren't people who feel that way, because unfortunately and obviously there's still plenty of bigotry out there.

Fine, work yourselves up in a tizzy.
Me, Imma wait to see what the electoral college does, see if recounts turn up anything, etc. No sense panicking before anything is 100% confirmed.

I guess this shouldn't be a WTF, but I today was the first time I had to lock a thread for moderation-related reasons. What an odd feeling of power...

I dunno, it strikes me as needlessly alarmist.

I agree that maybe this isn't the way we wanted this election to go, but could we at least give Trump a couple of months in office before declaring that everything is ruined 5ever?

Violence is not an acceptable route, guys.
Yet.

This is the right route. There's certainly a point where it's time to take up arms, but we're very, very far away from that point.

Not that it's a bad idea to stock up in advance, of course.
Whether violence can be considered acceptable or not, this is not the place for such talk.

That goes for everyone, mind. I want this thread to remain chill. Continued discussion of rioting or what have you will not help in that regard.

A couple of mildly amusing measures from my neck of the woods:

A requirement that people "acting" in pornographic films wear condoms.
The legalization of marijuana for those 21 or older.

Hmm, I suppose so. It isn't that big a deal for me though, so if someone else wants the possible extra you should give it to them.

5287
Bah, it's not like swordstar doesn't make crude jokes on her own.

That's what you get for being a Normal type in a Fighting game...

((Oh...maybe you're right.

If that's the case, don't worry about my check. I have no religion skills >_> ))

Hur Hur. Weird American dating system. Had to inform my young cousin that This 9/11 isn't actually the date of an American National tragedy.
... and then I thought about it...

Remember to vote! Both options are horrible! But I guess vote anyway!
Yeaah, that's one of the few things I'll never try to defend about America :P  MM/DD/YYYY is just stupid.
also lol
It's not stupid, really.
"November 9th, 2016"
The 9th of November, 2016"

Which is easier/more natural to say? :P

First off, THIS IS NOT A POLITICS THREAD. There's the general American Politics thread if you want to engage flamethrowers debate the merits of various candidates. This is purely a thread for today, the Presidential Election, and it should peacefully fall into the depths after a week or so.

So anyway, this is a happy little place to comment on (and commiserate over) the past few weeks. Did you vote? Will you vote? Were there any silly or amusing measures to vote on in your state? Are you munching popcorn from the safety of another country? Are you sick and tired of political ads?

And so on, and so forth. Have fun, and please don't summon the Toad.

Just when Amberly was starting to get good, too. Le sigh.

Really? Hmm, I sorta liked how pops could start to split away from the fold, maybe even start demanding independence.

Wonder what they'll replace it with...?

((Might as well have Aloisturm throw in a check as well.

I wasn't going to bother at first but I just remembered that psionics and magic are interconnected in this game, at least from what Hanzoku told me.))

Aloisturm's head swung around to look directly at Etoile.

"What library is this? The same one as that monk?"
