parentheticalaside:

I got everything I hoped for nationally last night: a Democratic House and more Democratic control in the states. I thought “blue wave” meant overcoming huge disadvantages from gerrymandering and voter suppression with a large Democratic turnout. I didn’t realize everyone else was defining blue wave as we sweep the House and the Senate, Donald Trump immediately resigns and apologizes for being such a dick, Brett Kavanaugh spontaneously combusts in his Supreme Court robes, and literally no Republican votes at all. That’s an oopsie on me.
