A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online

Either at a partisan gathering or curled up under my bed in the fetal position while my dogs lick my tears, depending on how things look tomorrow evening
It's currently 11.30 in the morning here, so I'll be sleeping, or at least attempting to.
MSNBC and AP (they have a YT stream)
Tbh, I got a lot of work to do. I will probably just check the news that night or wait for someone to tell me.

returns?
Two possible scenarios:
-
OP’s autocorrect wrote “returns” when they meant for the post to say “results”, in reference to the U.S. election
-
OP knows that the rapture is happening tomorrow when the pious souls will return to Heaven
There's a difference between poll returns and election results. Returns are "as they happen" and get updated. Results are final.

Even if the rapture happens tomorrow, nothing changes.
"God" - "I started the rapture, why aren't there more people up here?"
St peter- "there weren't any believers that were qualified"
Take them anyway, I really don't want to be stuck with a bunch of rapture reject crybabies. Burn me in hell forever, see if I give a shit, but don't make me listen to them whine about it.
Oops. Thanks
It's kind of an obsolete vernacular
You're not wrong though. Poll returns are what you get gradually until all votes are reported. Results are the final results of the election.
Resulta?
Jumping Jesus on a pogo stick!
Happens to everyone. Thx for fixing! :)
