I voted for Hillary because that's what I thought would help my friends.
It's all I could do in the long run.
Playing the blame game/circle jerk on the internet is so completely pointless because it was an systematic failure of our politics to get someone competent elected.
It was a failure of our education system to educate people and it's a massive failure of the democratic party to get anyone elected to office.
Fuck this blame game
Fuck our political system
Fuck everything.
All of us need to get involved in 2018, and we need to drag our friends into it.

Agreed, this is really great. I've always appreciated his calm and thoughtful tone in his articles.

Been wrapping up Strange Journey lately (bullshit Eridanus Sector) and REALLY getting into Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland.
It's definitely not the game I was expecting going in and super impressed with it so far.
Actually really getting back into DS/3DS lately with a peppering of arcade games.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
This just went on my wishlist.
Momodora Reverie Under the Moonlight art and animation is just ❤️
Sorry for the late response it's been a long day
I've actually had to do very little. She has been initiating pretty much everything so far. I'm still hestitating on things due to the complexity of her situation with the divorce. I don't want to be a home wrecker you know? So for right now I'm just trying to be her friend and get to know her better.

You said that I don't live in a racist, homophobic society. I do. And it is possible to take an interest in another country's politics you know, especially when it's one of the most influential countries in the world.
But fine. I'm not allowed to comment apparently. So instead I'll just drop this article by Roqayah Chamseddine here and let you tell her why she's wrong for saying it.
*legitimately leaving because I feel like people probably won't want me around for a while, at least until the dust has settled*

At my kids veterans day recital tearing up like a baby at their songs and letters.
However having babies singing Anchors Away is kinda messed up lol. Our song is about getting shit housed while in port. It literally describes drinking until the breakdown dawn.

I came home excited to see my baby girl and apparently my wife had kind of a stressful day with her so she put her to bed already. Feels like the day was a big waste as I'm sure I will snap my fingers and be teleported back at my desk tomorrow.

The cognitive dissonance required to equate Putin with progressive policies is mind boggling.

Just misread election as erection. First time I laughed all day.
Yep, I'm waiting for that I think. Hopefully next year.

Listening to the new Run The Jewels track. My sadness and anxiety has been transformed into anger now.
A lot of people on these boards at each others throats today.

Did you expect anything less?
The abject misery and fury people feel was going to come either way, but with a Trump victory GAF was bound to implode. It sinks my heart to see so many people in such a negative state of being.
I actually expected a tiny little more from people on here, if you're going to throw molotovs, throw them at the right fucking targets.

The anti-hillary sentiment on this board was silenced far too often. Now it's back out in full force.
That protest thread is a mess, if I read one more 'whats the point' comment I'm gonna throw up.
Kinda of have to point the finger a little bit at the moderation team for the first point.
But yeah, multiple OT threads I'm not touching with a 10 ft pole.

I really hope this election fires up the left like Obama's fired up the right. I'm 24 so I haven't been politically cognizant for very long but I am mad as hell and that is not changing anytime soon.
Also we are going to get some great music in the next 4 years.

Chicago is a mess. I don't think I have ever seen mass depression like this.
Good word. Thanks
Here in Orlando I was buying snacks at wawa earlier. The friendly cashier asked how I was and somehow I just felt like being real and I said "disappointed" we proceeded to vent to each other and it was so refreshing to be honest with a total stranger.

Hey, I saw you in the protest thread. Yeah, I hope this becomes a continuing thing for the next 4-8 years (hopefully 4 or less, if he ever gets impeached or something). Taking that anger to the midterms would be helpful, though with the districts in the 'Pub's favour...
And yes, I can only hope for more folks letting their anger out through music in the meantime. Something like grunge needs a comeback.
A sequel to the nofx album war on errorism is in order

Good. Too many are too apathetic.
Have there ever been major protests like this a day after? This seems unprecedented.

Absolutely amazing how I now realize how much America doesn't give a shit about me, as a young, gay female.
Wow.
Wow.
When the majority of the Western world is in shock over an election outside of their own country (even if the US remains the largest player in the game), you know shit is fucked.

So I already experience certain bullshit every once in a while given I live in Alabama, but about 30 or so minutes ago, I was walking through the parking lot on my way to the car. A truck is backing out a few spaces down. The driver is white, has his window rolled down, and is wearing one of those 'Make America Great Again' hats. As he drives by me he says, "Fuck Hillary and you niggers", laughs, and peels off.
I'm at home now. I was fucking pissed the whole way driving back. Maybe that piece of shit was openly racist before, I don't know, but racists have become more bold since Trump started this campaign, and this shit will likely get worse now that he's going to be fucking president.
Shit like this is why I'm of the mindset that anyone who voted for Trump can fuck off.

That's not true. The middle part of the country just hates us. But the majority still care for sure.
Actually the majority of the country who voted for Hillary -- and the majority DID vote for her -- Do give a shit about you and many of them care a great great deal. This is still horrible though
I've had this odd feeling of unease today that I never thought I'd experience as the result of an election because usually I'm not very politically engaged.Man that's horrible
(((Validating his words and actions by voting for him means there is something wrong with you, I view it very simply
Absolutely vile.

It doesn't fucking matter. We elected a man who is going to strip us of our right to love and to be accepted.
I'm about to cry. This is so fucking stupid. I'm out.

He doesn't have that authority tho. He's just the president.
Im emotionally reaching a point I dont want to reach and my family wont stop saying racist and homophobic comments. I want to disappear but I cant do shit cause I got no money and my friends are not exactly near and in conditions to take me into their apartments. I was very happy and now I don't feel safe at this apartment. This fucking sucks and I feel more shit will be said during the week.

Like my own mother voted for Trump. My mother, with a gay daughter in the military. Obviously not even my own fucking family gives a shit.
That's despicable man. I hope an opportunity presents itself that you can live in a more accepting community.
Having those come out of the woodwork even louder and prouder is really sickening.
A friend of mine posted a picture of a car in Astoria (NYC) that had all sorts of different animal horns etc, trump flag and the license plate "oval bush". I was shocked it could be real.
