Thinking of those of you in the US tomorrow. The potential for things getting ugly is very real.

Stay safe.

100% he's going to declare a premature victory. The US is fucked.

There's not enough popcorn or whisky in the world to get through the next few days of angst and political legal shit. Who here from Europe is staying up to watch the results tonight?

I'm in South Africa and holding my breath. The last four years have seen a lot of white supremacist bullshit rear its ugly head here - the ripple effects are worldwide. It's exhausting and I've never felt lonelier, knowing how many people are fully blind to their privilege and how limited their empathy truly is.
I'm hoping that young voters turn up and show the world something good. Wishing you all sanity, safety and strength.

Yep, just posted on Twitter "We are up big, but they are trying to STEAL the election!" And the tweet was restricted by Twitter for misinformation.

I wonder why he was in such a rush to appoint Amy Coney Barrett? If only we could connect the dots somehow...

I'm adapting the Trump approach and am currently listening to the new BOC record, watching them live and mourning their passing today. Go me.

You know what? It's taken the best part of a day but it looks like Biden's winning this.

This is 2020, so I'm not willing to say anything too optimistic, but I will say I am enjoying the meltdowns I'm seeing from Trump supporters on Twitter.

Planning to watch some Trump-supporting Twitter feeds around the time that Pennsylvania turns blue. The Blue Shift is almost finished with Trump.

So it *looks* like Biden is the most likely winner.... but Trump isn’t going to go quietly is he? How much would you love to be a fly on the wall in the Whitehouse right now? Real cocaine-psychosis bunker vibes....

Jesus, the 'statement' he just gave. The man is a human toilet.

Actually, I redact that. A toilet serves a purpose and causes no harm. I apologise to all honest, hard working toilets everywhere.

I'm so stoked to see the orange man get thrown in jail, where he belongs.
