Only if we're not all in a mass depressive fugue state by then!

@MLClark Democracy โ€œGo Bagโ€ for sale; unneeded.

๐Ÿ˜‰ That was indeed the reference, which CP pulled off beautifully.

A1: So what did they choose?
A2: Hold up. The last state votes are rolling in.
A1: *waits*
A2: And... NOW! It's good! All clear!
A1: Yes! Showtime!

*Flicks on the flying saucer's lights*

LET'S RIDE!

A3: *aside* Couldn't we have gone in even if they went the other way?
A1: Technically yes, but the eggs back home would be embarrassed if our first-contact photos involved tentacle-touching the other one.
A3: *shudders* He does have very small tentacles.
A1: Right?! The smallest!

There's a Spanish concept that I have been thinking about a lot in relation to what comes next: pena ajena - the pain of watching someone else's deplorable, embarrassing, awful actions.

I know some folks want/need to see :Asshat: in prison, but I just don't want to hear about him anymore. Too much pena ajena. I don't want his name mentioned. I don't want more analysis of his politics. I would like him to vanish into the mist, as you describe, so his power is gone and we can move on.

@MLClark "big ass meteor destroys all, JK" jk might be cheating lol

@MLClark remember remember the fifth of November

(For all the right reasons this time)

@cmskiera

I love that the second part can be taken two ways. ๐Ÿ™ƒ The first way is better, obviously, but the ambiguity makes your story art.

@MLClark
It does. I was trying to think of which dictator buddy Trump would trust the most if the petal hit the metal.

@BosmangBeratna

And lo! As the sun rose on a new day in the United States of America, kith and kin gathered in peace and in song, and ate cheese or sprout sandwiches together on their porches and lawns. ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป
