I don't even know what to say. Even after this exact same thing happened in the latest Israeli elections, even after Brexit, I honestly didn't think that it could happen.

The shock will fade in a few days and won't feel as visceral. But ugh. This is gutting. I'm sorry.

*hugs everyone*

No it's not gonna be better. We are terrified.

I didn't mean the actual situation, just that - I know a lot of people are sickened and scared and devastated right now, and those emotions at this level, they're not sustainable; it's not going to be four years of actually feeling this level of stress. At least that was my experience from what happened here. I didn't mean to minimize the impact of the election results by any means :(

No I know- sorry my reply came off as way more terse than I intended.

I remain terrified.

All good, I didn't phrase it well anyhow.

And yeah :(

Take this comment with the knowledge that I am now pretty drunk, but:

I predict something even weirder is about to happen. Maybe with Trump's fraud trial, maybe something else.

I don't know, but I think 2016 has been the Twilight Zone right from the start, and that it isn't done.

Yeah, I'm sick over the election, and yet. Maybe it's the rum, IDK, but I don't think we are going to be *quite* as fucked as it appears right now. Buckle up, contribute to progressive causes, we are going to survive this and even triumph, though that may be a long road.

I hope it's not the rum ♥ & hearts; ♥

I didn't think it could happen here either. I didn't think this was who we were. I could not be more disappointed in my country right now.

Yeah. I knew there was a chance, but - this is it. Third time's the charm. Never trusting polls again. Sigh.
