    So you're working in a gay bar?

    Good evening.

    Hah, I wish. No, I'm working in insurance now. Sadly I only had a fleeting moment of glorious freedom where I stuck it to the man.

    Wait, that sounded gay too. What the... ?

    Good morning.

    At least it's good to see that there is in these days some life here.

    Good Morning.

    Good morning. I still got a bit of a flue (my nose is still clogged up). Well. To be honest, I'm a bit worried about the fact that there's still the possibility that we have to move our base (of one of my jobs) to somewhere else. A couple of months ago the building next (and the whole area) where we have our base have been bought. They (who bought it) had this "great" idea that they want it all for themselves. My boss and higher-up are negotiating if we can still stay there to prevent that the whole area from becoming a wilderness and do the most repairs to the buildings and all. Oh well. Let us see what will happen. But overall, I'm doing okay.

    And how are you?

    I'm sorry to hear that all your base are belong to someone else.

    Good morning.

    I feel like, in terms of internet age, "All your base" might just be the original cross-internet subculture meme.

    Good evening.

    It's funny, I've doomsaid so long that when doomsday arrives, I got nothing to doomsay.

    Except...

    Good morning.

    It's like if we voted in the Monster Raving Loony Party.

    Good morning.

    I guess the joke's on me. And on the US and the rest of the world. Next time I'll just keep my mouth shut.

    Good morning.

    On you, sure. And on the US, certainly. But why the rest of the world? Clinton's hawkishness would have frightened me more had she won, than Trump's relative isolationism. And I doubt that the reason Trump is popular among Russians is that they're all a bunch of racist misogynists; likelier it's because he's the only one who hasn't outright stated that they're the enemy.

    Good morning.

    The rest of the world expects now a world war or religion wars. In Russia lives anti-Semitism, oppression of those of the LGQT community and attacks against the Chechen.

    Trump brought only fear. It is exceptional ironic that the most of the people who've voted for this guy have forefathers who came to America as immigrants and wanted to live in a land that endorse the religious freedom principles.

    First Amendment: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

    Fourteenth Amendment: All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction there of, are citizens of the United States and of the State where in they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

    The only things that keeps Mr. Orange skin to declare Russia as the enemy is a lot of money and investments.

    I think too many people are jumping on the end of the world because of Trump bandwagon. He won't be that bad, just give him a snickers.

    People are worried because Trump is a completely unknown quantity who will be in command of the most powerful country in the world. If he behaves the same way as the last joke candidate who accidentally got elected then he won't do much besides follow the lead of his advisors, and things will be mostly fine. But from what I've seen he is a bully, has a huge ego, and hates to lose, so he is likely to want to escalate any situation where a more reasonable person might back down. How will his advisors handle that?

    In short, the problem with a system where anyone can become President is that it means that anyone can become President.

    Good morning.
