I ordered this and another sweatshirt before the election and it only arrived this week… I decided it‘ll be my go-to for the next four years when I need a little pick-me-up. From boredwalk.com if you need your own pick-me-up. My other sweatshirt says “Stay-At-Home Unicorn” 🦄

Taking a lot of deep breaths today, drinking my water, only peeking at the news. If you are in the US, I hope you‘ve voted 💙🇺🇸💙

slategreyskies I haven‘t peeked yet. I‘ve been able to resist because I‘ve been at work, but I just got off, so from now until the results are announced… well, those hours will be the tough ones! Just breathe. 💙 2w

With the election only 2 days away, two books come to mind. The tagged book details America's long history of dirty politics and political machinations. The other is Almost President by Scott Farris. This book is about the men, and women, who ran for president and changed the nation, even though they lost. The author needs to update this to include Donald Trump, who has definitely changed the way people vote, the way campaigns are run ⬇️

RamsFan1963 ⬆️ and the way candidates interact with voters. Love him or hate him, Trump and the other candidates who are his style will affect politics for many years to come. #GoVote #VoteBlue💙💙 3w
BookmarkTavern Oh that sounds really interesting! Thanks for sharing! 2w
DogMomIrene These both sound really good! 2w

Excuse the non-book post, but I early voted today with hope in my heart for our first woman president 🤞 I know I don‘t need to preach to this community but if you‘re in the US, I hope you‘ve gotten out there or are planning to do so soon. The kittens #BookerCat and #TulinCat humored me by posing with our stickers (I learned the hard way that you shouldn‘t put a fresh sticker on a cat, poor Booker got a little wax 😅)

TheBookHippie ✊🏼💙🗳️ 3w

Sleepswithbooks My heart is with you … not just because she‘s a woman…. But because she has the needs of our country‘s people as a whole placed before all else. Actually… all people‘s basic rights 💙 3w
cariashley @Sleepswithbooks 1000%. So well said. 💙 3w
LeeRHarry I‘m with you - everyone I know here in Australia is too. 💙 3w
ChaoticMissAdventures I voted early too!! I think it is going to be a VERY long week and we will not have results for days but I am trying to stay hopeful 💙🤞 3w
cariashley @ChaoticMissAdventures you‘re so right. My husband took the rest of the week off 😂 I‘m too busy at work to do that but at least I‘ll have some distraction! 3w

Lcsmcat 🤞🏻🙏🏻💙💙 I know it will be a long wait for the results but I‘m trying to stay hopeful. 3w
ChaoticMissAdventures @cariashley I have a friend who took the week off and is going to a cabin without TV or Wi-Fi, which I think is so smart! She was traumatized in '16 when election night was on her birthday, I took Wednesday off hoping to also get out somewhere where I am not glued to the results. Hope your husband can get some productive time in too! 3w
Readerann 🤞😰 3w
The_Book_Ninja I have this Tolkien-tree wallpaper in my house too 3w
BarbaraBB I am with you in your elections 💙💙 All of Europe stands behind Kamala but I am terrified of what will happen. 3w
cariashley @The_Book_Ninja oh nice, I love it so much! It‘s just on one wall in my TV room as an accent but I think it‘s so cool ☺️ 3w
lynneamch "Preaching to the choir" may seem fruitless, but I've been reminded that "the choir sings." So, sing out sisters! 2w
