Are you with me?

Despite being unable to work and working with the state to get on medical leave, my bosses are trying to talk to me about when I will be going back to work. My job is too emotionally and physically demanding for me to be able to do it in my current state. For reference, I work at the daytime engagement center for youth experiencing homelessness that I went to back when I was 19 & 20. I can't be there for my clients in my condition. They deserve better than what I would be able to give. Plus, this job has already destroyed my body, and that was before I broke my leg.

I'm uncertain what the future holds. I won't be too surprised if my work finds a way to let me go. They've been talking to me about it for a while because my chronic condition already drained my PTO, and I have none to use for flare-ups, much less a broken leg. The state could deny an extension of my medical leave, meaning I won't get any sort of back leave for the last month.

I'm terrified that I'm going to face homelessness for a third time. I don't know if I will be able to survive that.

If you have anything to donate, please do so at the GoFundMe linked here. (If you would prefer another method like PayPal or Venmo, please DM me.)

Currently at $900/$5,000 for rent, utilities, and medical bills.

As a present to you all, here is a picture from the last time my kitty, Martin, visited me.

You ever start crying because of how much you love your friends?

Voting is reported by precinct.

Smaller, more rural precincts finish counting first and report first. These tend to swing much heavier towards R than D.

This makes it look like a state is fully and quickly "going red." This is the Red Mirage.

Bigger, more urban districts take longer to count and may stay open to allow everyone in line to vote. (STAY IN LINE)

As those urban districts, which swing much heavier D, start to report in, we see what the news calls The Blue Shift.

In addition, some states don't allow counting of mail-in/absentee ballots to begin until election day.

Those ballots tend to lean very heavily D.

As those ballots come in, the Blue Shift gets more pronounced.

That's what Trump was complaining about 4y ago about how "oh suddenly at 2 am all these votes out of nowhere." Those were absentee ballots being reported.

Additionally, deep red states are most likely to be called very quickly after polls close. This is why it looks like Trump is way ahead in electoral college votes right now.
