1. 2 hours of normal life

I spent the first 20 minutes reading this site because I went to sleep before the results were in. I cried for 20 minutes. But my family depends on me, I had to get up and try to act normal. I spent the last two hours doing what I would normally do on any given day. I think it helps to get back into your daily routine.

and I was watching a series streaming for hours before, my mind wouldn't turn it off.

So I wake up at 5am and come here to see sad news.

Unless dems move to the smaller states they will always have a electoral chance to win most times. It will never change because why would they give up power.

And watched The Death of Stalin, a hilarious but dark farce about what it’s like to live in a despotic authoritarian regime
