Look, we get it: this election cycle has been a slog. It has left most of us feeling as mentally drained and emotionally soiled as a circuit queen after a three-day holiday weekend party binge. But in case you needed a reminder, Holy shit, you have got to vote!
Like, that should go without saying, right? Particularly in light of the well documented efforts at voter suppression in battleground states like North Carolina—not to mention the Trump campaign’s own voter suppression initiatives. But in case you needed a little reminder, here’s Crazy Ex-Girlfriend star and creator Rachel Bloom and a bunch of her lefty, Hollyweird, media elite pals—Moby, Elizabeth Banks, Ruby Rose; Jane Lynch, Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Patti Lupone make appearances despite being too famous to actually show up at the studio—to get your head right before Election Day.
LOLs, right? But seriously, if you live in a swing state, we urge you to do everything in your power to get out the vote. Talk to your friends and neighbors. Explain to them why voting in this election is so very important, and that we cannot afford to be apathetic or discouraged when the very fate of the Republic hangs in the balance. Cover shifts for your co-workers so that they can vote. Offer rides to others so that they can make it to their polling places and vote. The more you do to get out the vote, the better you’ll feel sipping a glass of wine and watching the returns roll in on Election Night.
Who are we kidding? We’ll all be in a state of existential panic next Tuesday.
How about we take this to the next level?

Dear Hollywood,
Your efforts have a reverse reaction of what you want them to be. You have (repeatedly) overplayed your hand and few people give a rats ass on what you have to say anymore. Good luck on your efforts to get an pathological, corrupt, unindicted felon into the Oval Office. True patriots.

@Alistair Wiseman: Something tells me that your just here to agitate. Can you provide proof of these allegations? Do that then you have a case. Nothin come from talking but sound!

I’m not voting, I don’t want either candidate. A lot of people I talk to aren’t going to vote either, even my die hard Democrat mom is not voting this election because she doesn’t want either candidate. The only friend I have that is actually planning on voting is an ex that absolutely loves Trump, and while gay, was raised as a no questions asked Republican…hence his being my Ex. This election I just think both candidates are really bad choices and won’t vote for either one.

Hollywood is too stupid to realize that its efforts have the opposite effect to what it intends. I mean, it’s an industry based on illusions. It’s not real.
Air-heads are attracted to Hollywood.
