So did you go out and vote today?!?
So today's the day. The midterm elections are officially underway, and while we're hoping something good happens, it's safe to say that we've been through A LOT (in this case, "a lot" is the hugest understatement of the century...) since the disastrous results of the 2016 Presidential election, and the Twitterverse was quick to point out how different we all were two years ago...

But no matter how jaded or pessimistic you've become after surviving the last two years of the current administration's clownery (we don't blame you, tbh), it's still important to go out, let your voice be heard, and VOTE! Your country and your community depends on it!
