Okay I'm going to bed. Every election goes well when I sleep and terribly when I stay up. This superstition is only marginally less scientific than examining results this early.

Thought I'd switch to something relaxing like the shipping forecast, to get away from the election for a bit. Oh, wait... of course. No escape.

Ok it didn't work

The worst thing about this election night isn't Trump winning, it's that I've seen the advert for the awful bike umbrella on Amazon Prime's stream of CNN at least eight thousand times.

If you are in need of something healing, I thoroughly recommend putting on David Attenborough's new Asia programme.

I would actually like someone to ban it for me tbh

This might not be 100% correct but my grandmother explained to me that sea defences in North Norfolk don't go past Happisburgh because there was concern in the 90s about bats. But now Happisburgh is falling into the sea. There will eventually be no home for 1440 people, or bats.

This Christmassy scene would make such a lovely card

Ok this is really good actually.

We can make ourselves feel better that this is why the Dems lost. Musk definitely set out to do this. And it likely helped. But everyone needs to admit that living standards are crap for too many people in 'rich' Western countries. And progressives have presided over this.

Against all my better judgement I went into a Costa today. There were at least three of these signs displayed. I feel like this is a huge indicator of where we're at as a country. A bloody coffee shop has a sign about abusive customers? I appreciate I sound very old but wtf?

10/10 no notes

I preferred the person I was before I had heard of the Schooner Scorer.
