2016 US Election: Day Zero

<Snipped quote by mdk>

I agree completely with this. Working class are still the most important voting block, and they let the world know last night. The states she lost were exactly the old industrial midwest, and really, they earned that loss by being so flippant about the problems there. Now I don't think Trump's plans will help at all, I think they'll hurt actually, and I'm a bit anxious about my own future, but I totally understand why the electorate chose a candidate who responded to their problems with a bizarre plan over a candidate who was condescending about the idea that they even had problems at all.

@Vilageidiotx

To add to this, my Hillary supporting friends on Facebook have totally miscalculated the existence of the working class poor, or the unemployed/under employed working class. So I don't think anyone in the Hillary camp knows what the fuck they were doing. Some of them are even trying to deny the working class was even a thing, and instead go on about bigoted, misogynistic, racist politics.

Like god damn, your horse didn't have a philosophical purpose beyond not being the other guy. At least Trump had "make America great again" and memes.

What if Trump will be to us and Russia as Neville Chamberlain was to the UK and Germany?

"With this agreement, we-uh agree to conceded Ukrainian rights to Russian. In return: we will... not... have additional war. And I mean it. I spoke with Putin personally. Putin is a very agreeable person. I can trust him. You can trust me. This is valid. The issue is over. Over I tell you."

It affects you too tho.

edit: oh not western/northern euro. maybe not so much.

@Doivid

Depends if Trump is serious about his Nato pledge. Then it could seriously tip European power towards Russia and leave Europe cold in the water if we bail out. The balance of power could seriously be altered.

B!tchfest: a healthy release for our non-roleplay annoyances.

@Dinh AaronMk So Kassarock is vital to the Seolhi storyline, but he has been away for a week. Wat do?

@DeadBeatWalking

If all else, push on as if he were there. I will let you NPC assets of his for the sake of moving your story along. I do hope you talked with him to get a general outline on how things should go in the near future.

If all else fails and he's still not present we will render him totally an NPC. His folk will remain open for his return, but we shouldn't see this dying because of his absence.

Drove by the polling station an hour ago and the line is still solid.

I'm wondering if a decrease in polling stations might have happened here? Used to be we'd go to a school, now it's a church, so they swapped shit around one way or another. This is a blue county in a red state, so if they going to fuck over anybody it's going to be us.

@Vilageidiotx

We go to the township hall. Upstairs is two voting districts for the area, down stairs is the other two. I don't know how this compares to you.

2016 US Election: Day Zero

Voted today, didn't have a very long line to contend with, was all well contained inside the building and was only a few people away from the desk to begin my journey. Of course, I also arrived at an odd time where everyone was still at work or just starting to get out.

Was going to watch Dr. Strange after, but realized I wouldn't have time to make the showing I was going to see so instead I went home and made some of Berlin's Currywurst, but home made.

Now I can work on a post, after voting and a movie.

How Powerful is Gaia in Hinduism?

Well she ain't Brahma, nor is she the Brahman so about as buff as any other god.

You may want to look out though, she may be some crazy gender-bent clone twin of Siva, who may also be his wife. Thus illustrating the dichotomy of the dualism of roles played in certain aspects of natural order.

But oh well, in Hinduism all gods do as they do and knowing how or why doesn't make them do their roles in their respective dominions any more efficient or better, or one or the other stronger. When it all comes down to it Brahma will stop his slow recitation of the Vedas and the world will end, he'll take a nap, then he'll wake up and do it all over again.
