When you have an ultra right wing Christian* unaccountable SCOTUS majority for whom “originalism” means returning this country to roughly what it was in the 18th and 19th centuries, this is what you get. They genuinely mean to repeal the 20th century. Quote Tweet Glenn Kirschner @glennkirschner2 The Supreme Court seems determined to make American the most deadly, the most dangerous and the most inhospitable place on earth.
We’re going to “freedom” ourselves to death.
And their utter impunity is the direct result of socially moderate and liberal voters’ passivity and checked out disinterest in active civic participation, combined with right wing Christianist voters’ stolid determination to ALWAYS vote, even for Satan himself, to get their way.
One side views democracy as war while the other side — the actual majority — treats it as an accessory. This is how nations lose their democracies. Y’all have basically one last chance this year. You need AT LEAST 60 Democratic votes in the Senate; 62-64 to be safe-to reverse it.
Some of y’all are gonna Netflix and chill your way into Gilead and be real surprised — and not in a good way. When democracy is gone, high gas prices will be the least of our problems.
And I’m not saying Democrats are perfect. Far from it. In many ways they’re a pain in the arse; frustrating and slow on the uptake. But — & I can’t stress this enough — they are the ONLY PARTY THAT CURRENTLY BELIEVES ELECTIONS SHOULD COUNT AND PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO VOTE
It’s really them or the freaking abyss. And trust me you DO NOT want to live in Gilead. You think you’ll just get prayer back in school but what you really get is no women’s rights, no civil rights, no voting rights, no Miranda rights, no LGBTQ rights & no rights vs corporations.
If you’re cool with that, stay home in November and complain that Democrats can’t overcome the Senate filibuster using sorcery or whatever or that Biden won’t pull his secret gas prices lever and make them magically go down. And see how that works when MAGA is in full control.
The answer to this hell isn’t sexy, y’all. It’s the same ish I’ve been screaming my whole adult life. The majority needs only to BE the majority and vote like it: every race, from school board to state rep to congress to POTUS, again and again and again until you have real POWER.
Because please know that the other side has done exactly that since the 1960s and will keep doing so until the 20th century reforms to our society are a distant memory that’s illegal to teach in school. I’m done. Be blessed.

This took me about 12 hours. Each pattern on the fabric manually drawn because none of my pattern brushes worked for it. Layer upon layer upon layer, to keep things right.
He’s worth it.

I really want to watch this series. I saw a video with a couple scenes from it and thought it looked really good. So much better than the American version. My country needs to stop making crappy remakes of good British television.

Bucky Takes Care of Sam Masterlist Project: 10 Tumblr Fics
Most of the Bucky Takes Care of Sam fics are on AO3 and can be accessed here.
Here are 10 Tumblr fics I’ve come across! Thank you everyone who sent me your fics!
Note: most don’t have titles/summaries/word counts/ratings. Tumblr fics tend to be short, 100-1000 words. I’ve written summaries for the ones without. :)
don’t apologize by @tenderlybarnes
Summary from author: Sometimes Sam Wilson can’t sleep. But Bucky Barnes won’t let him go through it alone. Featuring some tender first kisses.
untitled by @yaksomins
Summary: Sam panics when he’s unknowingly listed as Bucky’s emergency contact, but Bucky is there to lift him up.
untitled by @yaksomins
Summary: Sam and Bucky argue over who’s going to pay for take out - Bucky demands he be able to take care of Sam.
untitled by @omg-just-peachy
Summary: Sam refuses to stop training and Bucky makes him rest.
untitled by @coffeeinallcaps
Summary: 1 time Bucky didn’t take care of Sam and 4 times he did.
untitled by @omg-just-peachy
Summary: When the spotlight is too much for Sam, Bucky offers him an escape.
Samtember 27: Unspoken by @sammy-souffle
Summary: Bucky comforts Sam, who’s struggling with the traumatic things he’s seen.
Sambucky Bingo: crying into ice cream by @glittercake
Summary: Sam is depressed and dissociates; Bucky gives him the TLC he needs.
Untitled by @sammy-souffle
Summary: Sam is injured, Bucky takes care of him. Note: Set when Bucky’s on the run so it has a bit of a sadder ending (Bucky leaves when Sam asks him not to).
untilted by @holdmynascarinyourhands
Summary: Bucky rescues Sam, who is injured and hallucinating about Riley. Note: angsty, not a happy ending as it ends with Sam still in distress
Enjoy!
If you sent me a Tumblr fic and it’s missing from this list, I did lose an original list I had created when switching computers. Feel free to send to me again - I apologize if you were left out! Please send me any Tumblr fics I missed and I will add them here! Consider this post a living document.

I was walking through the toy aisle at Target when I found this thing and had a VIOLENT AND IMMEDIATE FLASHBACK to when JP first came out and they had a bunch of REALLY COOL T Rex toys that I would have sold one of my scrawny small-child limbs for but my mother wouldn’t get me one because they were “too violent and also ate people” :(

“Standing Outside a Broken Phone Booth with Money In My Hand” by Primitive Radio Gods. I love that title. I haven’t heard that song in years. God I miss 90s music.
