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.

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
