    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    We will have to wait until tomorrow to see her befuddlement.

    It amazes me how incompetent the Democratic leadership has been since 2000. They could have easily thwarted the GOP in several of their missteps over the years, but have shown themselves to be nothing but spineless hacks.

    CNN just gave Wisconsin to Trump. It's all over but the crying.

    Edit-> Apparently Hillary conceded over the phone to Trump. Ding dong, and god help us all.

    I think it's fitting the election that looked more like a reality tv show to be won be a reality tv star. Another glass ceiling shattered. Now get ready for the first female president, Kim Kardashian in 2024.

    Also, a respectable reaction from the Fark comments:

    We elected a black president twice. I truly believe that Trump supporters have concerns larger than only race. Dismissing them as solely racists is the kind of thinking that leads to losing an election you thought was in the bag eight hours ago. Sound familiar?

    I think Trump voters feel like their jobs and opportunities are dwindling. They feel like immigrants, black people, and LGBT people are making all the progress and they are being left behind. We may disagree and argue over whether those concerns are justified, but you cannot challenge the fact that they have real concerns and that they act upon those concerns at the ballot box.

    The Trump candidacy was as much a middle finger to the Republican party establishment as anything else. They sent a message. If Democrats stick our fingers in our ears and say "you're just a bunch of deplorable racists" we're missing the message again. They feel they are being marginalized and left behind. Dismissing them as only hateful racists marginalizes them and therefore proves them right. We can't act like they don't have concerns.

    I'm not a Trump supporter. I voted for Hillary. But we Democrats aren't going to win in 2018 or 2020 or beyond by dismissing the concerns of Trump voters. We need to address them, and address them honestly.

    I think it's rather that they weren't responding to the polls in the first place. The fascists were already very vocal in their support. The Trump surge owes a good deal to a disengaged and disheartened 'shadow electorate', not to shy Nazis.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    I told you Donald was going to win. People are too shy to admit they like Nazism in a phone conversation and it is really awkward that the poll companies have not yet grasped that simple fact. Now only if Admiral Kuznetsov purges today the Islamofascists of W. Aleppo in an orgy of red fire, then Charles Lister may finally decide to stop being a waste of oxygen.
