This is aimed at US election day, because the US controls the western world. And most of us are unfortunately westerners.
We all know that the election is gonna suck. How will you cope? How will you celebrate? How will you give yourself a reason to wake up the next day?
My plan is avoiding all human contact for the day as best as I can, and going out for a run. Then I will come home and make rice and tofu. Maybe with some kimchi I have stored.
A combination of brainpoisoning that makes me able to enjoy the horserace and knowing that there are no stakes for this election because it is between two Hitlers, and we’ve had successive Hitlers in office for (at minimum) 20 years.
The ongoing genocide in Gaza has decoupled the election from horrifying political outcomes in my mind so i don’t care. One Hitler, two Hitler. Red Hitler, blue Hitler.
Drugs. Same as any other day.
I work that day so I’m just hoping I can avoid having to talk to coworkers about it. I haven’t been cornered by any of the libs there about who I’m voting for so far thankfully.
Otherwise going to just treat it like any other evening and do some reading and make fried tofu
I can at least rest a little easier knowing that Biden may very well die shortly after due to no longer being three feet from the super drugs at all times.
