As we all know (and if you don’t, what wild underwater cave are you living in?!) the election is right around the corner (NOVEMBER 3RD, VOTE VOTE VOTE!). Here are some last-minute things you can do (OTHER THAN VOTING!) to get through the next two days.
1. Encourage your friends to vote! I know, I know. You thought this list was going to be sexier. But- voting IS sexy. And what’s even sexier is helping your friends make a voting plan (as long as you listen to Sade while doing it). Call your besties and family members and random college acapella buddies and make sure they’ll all be voting on the 3rd!
2. Volunteer and encourage strangers to vote! Now, this is heating up! Strangers…ooooh! Text and phone banking are great ways to get people to the polls (just Google and you’ll find plenty of orgs). Bonus points for making the calls in a sexy Swiss accent…
3. Find new places for your I-Voted Sticker. Now, this one is so saucy I’m not even sure I can sketch in the details. But… I’m sure YOU can. Don’t just stick it to your shirt or sunglasses or baby’s forehead (oops, I did this), find an interesting spot to show you supported the democratic process. Yowza.
4. Self-care. Baths. Foot rubs. Copious amounts of Schitt’s Creek and lasagna or The Good Place and cheese curls or The Bachelorette (what is Claire thinking!) and mezcal (no judgments!)… Make YOU happy. No matter what happens on November 3rd, this is all a long road, and you have to be rested and preserved enough to keep up the fight. And when in doubt…
5. Scream into your pillow! Or car (close windows)! Or during a shower! Again, no judgement. Unless you don’t vote. Then no sexy cheese curls for you!
