If you need a ride to the polls, this may help:

If you are not registered to vote, many states allow same-day registration:

If you are turned away at the polls, say:

I REQUEST A PROVISIONAL BALLOT AS REQUIRED BY LAW.

Be sure to insist on a receipt.

Vote as early as possible if you have't yet. Bring a friend with you- or more than one!

Check to confirm if possible that your ballot was counted- this goes for early/mail voters too. If there was a problem for example with your signature, it may be possible to "cure" your ballot and have it counted if you act quickly. Check your state election sites.

IF YOU ARE IN LINE, DO NOT LEAVE, even if the polls have closed.

IF YOU ARE IN LINE WHEN POLLS CLOSE, YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO VOTE.

Stay safe.

Stay focussed.

We've got this.

"voting makes you complicit in US war crimes"

that's not how anything works. if you live in the US, if you pay taxes, if you are using a cell phone, if you drive or ride in a car, if you own anything with a rechargeable battery, you're technically complicit in war crimes.

not voting for Harris is, in effect, a vote for Trump. (mathematically you could argue it's half a vote for Trump but that's still voting for Trump)

I heard a National Parks employee a couple weeks ago say he wasn't sure the National Park Service could survive another Trump presidency. Federal agencies across the government are racing to get money out the door before January - EPA climate justice grants. USDA grants to Black and Indigenous farmers. immigration courts are racing to process as many citizenship applications as possible before January.

They're doing this because they know what will happen if Trump is elected again. We all know. Because we've done this before. There's no "he's just saying stuff he won't actually DO anything" this time around.

Not voting does not keep your hands clean. Not voting is not a principled stand for anything. If you have the ability to vote and choose not to, you have if anything increased the amount of blood on your hands.

Today this blog is not a fandom blog, this is an election blog. Because some things matter a whole fuck ton more than other things.

GO VOTE!

I'm sure many people have already shared this here, but I think it's important that people here on Tumblr need to see this.

One of the ways multishipping has been good for my fandom experience is that it really brings home how shipping isn’t something you can win at.

And you can try! And people will always try: jostling for BNF status, drawing lines around who’s a Real shipper and who’s not, doing that ‘six ship wars disguised in a social justice trenchcoat’ thing that we’ve all seen before, endlessly chasing the high of engagement and validation. But at the end of all that you still won’t have won because shipping is not about establishing the one correct take or the one correct authority, and trying to do this only ever succeeds in making the fandom space unpleasant for everyone, yourself included.

Shipping is about possibility and creativity and exploring characters. It’s about building community rather than hierarchy; it’s at its best when the response to someone with a different take is “oh I���d never thought about it that way, that’s given me a new idea…” rather than setting up the fandom equivalent of a medieval heresy trial. It’s about fun. And while multishipping absolutely isn’t required for this, when you’re already into two or more dynamics with the same character it does give you a head start on appreciating that there isn’t one Right one.

Anyway I am currently working on a fic that pairs TROP Galadriel with someone I haven’t shipped her with before at all which is a whole new kind of fun! and I also have Darth Real Life to deal with, sigh; so here’s a picture of one of my ships as they are in one adaptation. (Galadriel and Celeborn in the Bakshi LOTR; my dark LOTR fandom not-that-secret is that I’m deeply ‘meh’ about the Peter Jackson trilogy)

It's ok to share private screenshots if they're exposing a person you don't like? Ok principessapeach did the right thing sharing those screenshots then, because she doesn't like you.

That is quite the backwards bend, now-serial anon harasser. And that’s absolutely within that person’s rights to not like me. Spreading malicious content in an attempt to incite harassment based on the efforts of a serial internet stalker is kinda beyond the pale, honestly. But nice try.

Ok had to trot out Harrison Ford for that one. If you cannot grapple with the cognitive dissonance in your wee noggins about harassment and stalking and why those things are bad? It is you who are the bad people.

And with that! I have to roll it up for the night and put on some Slow Horses. Mama’s sushi is finally rolling up and not even Sauron could pry it from my fingers. (Galadriel on the other hand will get whatever her wee elf heart desires.)

Should also be added that it is truly hilarious that a pack of anons on a private server are literally coordinating an attack on my account to try to double down on But You were MeAN in a PriVate SeRver and attacked our FrIeND when I went straight up to their face and said I disagreed with them. And are continuing to push the bizarre agenda of an internet stalker.

Fandoms amirite?

Nothing like an internet stalker to bring down the mood. Looking pointedly at the screenshotting parties on here and those who are sharing the screenshots. Fandom wank sure do be wanking today.

If you’re here to rubberneck on my blog, please know that I am posting these anons not to be annoying, but to point out that these are the real bullies in this situation. And if you take part in the anon harassment against me, that is a very telling fact about who YOU are as a person. Chew on that, friends.

[myrsinemezzo]

Why did you like bulmooses post that had screenshots of private discord messages from demonscantgothere? Isn't that also stalking? Rules for thee, but not for me.

Now That is a good point, anon. Glad you went back to the drawing board. This is when I realized they weee a serial harasser and stalker who has done this in several fandom spaces. Beware, anon. For in a few months’ time, the serial internet stalker face eating leopard will also come for thee.

Aaaaand she is beauty she is grace, she will punch Sauron in the face (not an internet stalker face eating leopard), but you get my drift)

[myrsinemezzo]

How would you feel if you saw screenshots of moots talking shit about you when you thought you were on good terms? Would that make you feel good inside?

Damn it. I missed one! I don’t know, anon. Maybe if you weren’t invested in pushing the narrative of an internet stalker, I would have some sympathy for your perspective. Even putting aside the anon bullying and harassment. You guys are really showing your ass right now.

Here’s a little “call it a gift” gif as a treat, bestie.

What happened in the Haladriel fandom ?

Oh you know. The usual. Things being taken in bad faith and out of context and mud being slung at my friends. Cause I guess pushing back on the idea that ‘liking xleeborn or wanting him on the show means your either an anti, an anti hiding as a haladriel specifically to cause fandom drama, or sincere in your liking of him but watch what you say cause you could be fueling the antis’ is an organized harassment campaign and blocking said celeborn hater is a childish reaction to a “mature conversation.” And on top of that to then find out that someone has been lurking and screencapping conversations to basically build a callout post of out of context conversations in order to accuse people of bullying and racism. So you know. Just another lovely day in this fandom. 👍🏽
