NASA says asteroid is heading towards Earth just before election

More and more, when I consider the fact that we are only two months away and moving away from one of the most crucial and precarious elections in the history of the nation (if not la), I have to stop what I’m doing to deal with heavy breathing; little shrill cries; and sit in the shower. The stakes are steep and the memories of election night 2016 strangely fresh. Hit me, I whisper to the Universe in these moments. Do whatever you gotta do, don’t make me watch the returns again.

Be aware that an asteroid entering Earth on the eve of the 2020 election is not what I had in mind, and I’m sorry. I was thinking of something more like a long, suitably timed sleep, or to be stuck in the fish tube and dropped in 2021 / oblivion. But according to CNN, a possible impact event is what we get instead. The chances of a collision are slim, but still.
