Friendly reminder that almost half of the states in the U.S. have same day registration! This means you can go to the polling center for your location, register there, and cast your vote same day. So if you are over 18, are a U.S. citizen, and live in one of the states listed below, it is not too late to register and vote! I’m going to put notes for some of the states where voting is extra important due to the political climate of the state.

California

Colorado

Connecticut

D.C.

Hawaii

Idaho

Illinois

Iowa - recent polls indicate state could flip from red to blue

Maine

Maryland

Michigan

Minnesota

Montana

Nevada

New Hampshire

New Mexico

New York

North Carolina - swing state! Could go red or blue

North Dakota - voter registration not required

Utah

Vermont

Virginia

Washington

Wisconsin - swing state! Could go red or blue

Wyoming

You can go here for more info on voter registration

I also have a huge list of voting resources here

Of course, I only found the old coins in the treasure room AFTER restarting the level.

Kept Joseph alive easily this time at least! Won all four stages of the confrontation.

Replaying VtM Swansong: up to the first Galeb sequence on Long Island.

Joseph Manneh, my beloved. Truly my favourite NPC, his conversation with Galeb is one of the game’s highlights. I like his fairly open attitude regarding vampires, but that he’s not a complete dumbass about it. If you try to guilt trip him about the Inquisition he reminds Galeb that kindred are not exactly sheep sent to the slaughter. I’m probably going to restart the whole scene purely because Galeb’s willpower is too low to get through this without Joseph dying, and I doubt there are any old coins conveniently lying around the old fort (except those damn florins you just can’t interact with!)

is there anything we can do for you? a fundraiser to get your family out? or if they're (understandably) planning to stay, just the kids? an emergency pool for essentials and to get backups of important documents?

you've done so much putting in the work to give us the spreadsheet and fight for it's legitimacy, if you can think of a way for us to help you in return please say so. I hope your family and your home make it through this intact, may god watch over your loved ones

This isn't the only message I received like this so I will answer all messages I received like this with this ask.

I'm not sure if this is for the extended family members in Ghazzah or the closer family members in Lebanon but the Ghazzawi side of the family don't want a fundraiser, I already asked, and even if they did I wouldn't post it saying it's for my family because privacy. The Lebanese side don't want to leave and can't leave for lack of approved Visas because no country wants immigrants, and certainly not Arab ones.

Another thing is that I've asked before that if you feel the need to send me money for my work, if you feel the need to compensate me for my work, compensate me by donating to the fundraisers I worked hard to vet. Or in this case now, the fundraisers Mohammed Ayesh worked hard to vet. Or just donate to Mohammed Ayesh straight up. He's in need right now after surviving a horrifying raid.

On your first day of service, you aspired to be worthy of me. I only wish that I could have been worthy of you, my Loid.

Tennotober day 29 - Murmur

Im really pleased with how this all came together. I think I did pretty good for my first Tennotober :j I just wish I knew how to post to tumblr without the colors going out of wack </3

fucking evil behaviour here. PCRF was my go-to as well. Let's still help where we can!

if anyone is trying to donate to help in Gaza through orgs, these ones were just banned by the Israeli government with no reason given and can no longer operate in Gaza (at least for now).

these are the orgs: Palestinian Australian New Zealand Medical Association, Glia Project, Palestinian American Bridge, PalMed, Baitulmaal, FAJR, Palestinian American Medical Association, Palestinian Children’s Relief Fund

from what i’ve been told by people who have been working in/coordinating aid in Gaza, Palestinian Red Crescent Society, World Central Kitchen, and Anera are unaffected by this order, but everyone has been limited in what they can bring in. while the middle two aren’t medical orgs, they have been bringing in some medicine. PRCS is a red cross affiliate providing medical care.

(not trying to sway anyone’s donations but wanted to put this out there since PCRF has been the org i’ve recommended several people donate to previously.)

Hi, I hope you're doing well and I am sorry in advance if I sent you this message before. We are very close to the goal and I really need your help. I'm writing to you with a heavy heart and an urgent request for help. My family is in a very danger situation due to the ongoing war, and I've launched a GoFundMe campaign to save them. Could you please rebblog my campaign post from my profile?🙏 Feel free to share it in any other social media platform if you would like. Our campaign has been verified ⭐️ by operation olive branch, and is entry number 26 on their spreadsheet. Also with ⭐️ Project watermelon,line 249/(212) on their spreadsheet. From the bottom of my heart I want to thank you in advance for all of your support and kindness.
