State Primary Eve
Feb. 29th, 2016 10:00 pmI was raised to think of voting as a civic duty, but God, do I not want to have anything to do with tomorrow. I hate that our system has gotten so fucked up I'm probably going to vote for the woman who is part of the establishment had has more than one black mark in her past and against the man who would actually try to do the right thing, because it's too dangerous to have the latter as our nominee, especially with the stories about the likely Republican nominee getting more horrifying by the day. I'm honestly tempted to say fuck that and wait until November to vote.
Enjoyed watching the Oscars last night, though I broke down when they ended the memorial montage with Nimoy, and then nearly broke down again watching Lady Gaga. Called mom over to watch Mark Rylance's acceptance speech; that made her happy. Also, apparently Jenny Beavan has designed costumes for a number of things we've watched, and she was happy to hear today that she'd won too, even though she was appalled when I tried to explain Mad Max: Fury Road to her. Was genuinely impressed by Leo's words on climate change, glad he finally got his, and pleased his movie didn't win Best Picture.
