Vote like you live in a de facto two-party state. Vote like other people are people too. Vote like your right to vote depends on it.

I'm sure it's hard to miss the fact that there's an election on, especially since the presidency is involved, but, just in case ... this is your reminder to go vote.
Also, a practical note: if you're voting in person, you're absolutely allowed to bring a bit of paper with the votes you're planning to cast with you into the voting booth so you don't forget who you were planning to vote for.

Here's hoping we all get to do it again in 2028.
I thought Adam Conover had a constructive take in his "Why I'm not worried" video. Not linking because I'm on mobile, but in a nutshell: Worry is an emotion of helplessness; it's for people who aren't actively working for the world we want. All of us can choose to be involved with issues we care about. We will still have work to do no matter who wins the election; this will just determine how hard it will be.
I'll add: Don't ever let anyone shame you for not doing "enough" for a cause. Activism and/or resistance takes many forms, and whatever you can personally do is worthy. If just continuing to survive is all you can do, that is worthy. Choosing gratitude over bitterness is worthy. Choosing hope over despair is worthy. Choosing compassion over fear is worthy. In these challenging times, these choice are difficult, and they are powerful, and no one can ever take that power away from you.

If you want to see what you can vote for in your district, I wholeheartedly recommend Ballotpedia.

(Also, they misspelled ballot as "ballott" on one of the signs at the polling place, which mildly annoyed me.)
