And it won’t even be over on Tuesday no matter who wins.

I just have to start distracting myself when it happens.

    Yes, since if Trump takes it I will lose access to my meds and probably die. It’s fucking scary.

        Too old, too poor, too sick. Nobody is taking US “refugees” in my position.

        I mean, I understand, I’m a drag on the system, they’re not going to get a ton more economic output out of me. Still blows.

        Maybe that will change after the election but I don’t expect the rest of the world to be too receptive to our refugees.

          You aren’t a drag on a working system (medical, economic, whatever). Don’t blame yourself, it’s all geared for profit and not to help the most people possible.

            Thank you. I don’t actually blame myself, but I understand how these systems work, and they work on expecting some economic output from immigrants. Womp womp.

          I’m so sorry. I understand major medical issues. I really hope for your and a lot of other people’s sakes that this is going to go Harris’ way.

      I’m in a very similar position. Major preexisting condition which requires expensive care for the rest of my life, 10 years max of productivity left in me. No country would have me, and all I want to do is flee. Unless a miracle happens next week, but I’m honestly quite pessimistic.
