    probably watch it on PBS Detroit and will be checking out the Daily Show live episode whenever it comes out on youtube.

      I’m actively trying to avoid it, but even in The Netherlands it’s hard to avoid the talk of the town.

      Two possible scenarios:

      1. OP’s autocorrect wrote “returns” when they meant for the post to say “results”, in reference to the U.S. election

      2. OP knows that the rapture is happening tomorrow when the pious souls will return to Heaven

        Even if the rapture happens tomorrow, nothing changes.

        “God” - “I started the rapture, why aren’t there more people up here?”

        St peter- “there weren’t any believers that were qualified”

          Take them anyway, I really don’t want to be stuck with a bunch of rapture reject crybabies. Burn me in hell forever, see if I give a shit, but don’t make me listen to them whine about it.

        I like the second scenario best tbh, even if it entails me burning in hell for the rest of eternity.

          Don’t worry, the first scenario also could produce hell on earth for the rest of eternity as well

            I don’t know. I’ve been enjoying the late decadence of western civilization, to be perfectly honest. It could get worse, sure, but can you imagine anything more boring than having our collective survival as a species guaranteed?

            I can’t.

        There’s a difference between poll returns and election results. Returns are “as they happen” and get updated. Results are final.

    Staying busy and avoiding news. It’s highly likely that it won’t be decisive, and we don’t need to feed the relentless hysterical coverage machine of media corporations.

      Thank you for this. I’m signing off for today, I’m sure I’ll find the results out eventually

    I’m not watching. What’s the point of being manipulated and made to feel like we care about who wins? What previous president made things better instead of worse?

    It’s like peasants cheering for either a turd or an asshole, both of which have much more in common with eachother than us. Great choices.

    They are professional politicians with loads of money and influence, and an entire pr staff to write stories about them and make them appear a certain way to the public.

    I’m not. I’ve checked the results a couple times online, but I see no sense in watching coverage. We’ll know the outcome when it’s over and not a moment before.

    There’s a divey bar 10m away where people have been watching results the last few years. Might head down there. Pretty sure it’ll be packed.

    Alternative is to crawl into bed and wait till January.

    Edit: we have a lot of local races (Mayor, City Council, propositions) on the line. Might hit the bar just to watch those and just ignore the national stuff.

    CBC/BBC/Al Jazeera, checking the Economist for my minute by minute bellweather county level fun.
