Dear Americans,
go vote. I won’t tell you that you should vote for X or Y, because quite honestly, there are so many posts doing that out there and I don’t think that a German telling you whom to vote will have a great impact. But I’m telling you to GO VOTE! If you’re registered to vote, go. If you don’t, you might regret it for the next 4 years. It can have a severe impact on your life. BREXIT, for example happened because people were so sure that Britain would vote Remain, that they didn’t go vote. We know how that turned out. If you don’t want to wake up and find yourself in a reality you don’t like, go vote. During the 30s in my country, many people didn’t trust the parties in parliament anymore or feared the NSDAP (Hitler’s party) and didn’t vote. We know how that turned out. Many people world wide fight for their right to vote; and many die. Your election might not be ideal, your single vote will not swing the election around. But if all of you people who feel unhappy with the candidates or the election system stay at home, your vote will count. And maybe in a way you won’t like. If you don’t go vote you’ve only got yourself to blame. So please go vote.

Oh, Buzz, dear Buzz…. Hating aliens and all the weird stuff that’s happening in Strangetown and then rolling the want to get engaged to the alien-Bella-Goth-clone? That want’s locked, this is too good to pass up on.

The guest left soon after that, and somehow, the party was a total failure again. But instead of ending the round with a sad Lazlo (he has a popularity secondary) I’ll leave you with these pictures of the toddlers taken the next morning. Tycho may be older than his cousin and already knows how to walk, talk, and go potty, but she is the one that knows how to get out of the crib.
