To all Americans:

It may all seem hopeless right now but listen, focus on your LOCAL POLITICS! this is where you will see immediate change that YOU have the power to influence, one person in small town won't be able to change the outcome of a national bill, but YOU can change the outcome of a local one, this is where immediate and tangible change is made: LOCALLY!! THERE IS HOPE! GO LOCAL! FOCUS ON LOCAL POLITICS THAT IS WHERE TANGIBLE IMMEDIATE CHANGE IS MADE FOR YOU!

love from NZ 🫂

A Pragmatic and surprisingly comforting perspective about the Trump 2nd Presidency from the ACLU

***Apologies if this is how you found out the 2024 election results***

Blacked out part is my name.

I’m not going to let this make me give up. It’s disheartening, and today I will wallow, probably tomorrow too

AND

I will continue to do my part in my community to spread the activism and promote change for the world I want to live in. I want to change the world AND help with the dishes.

And I won’t let an orange pit stain be what stops me from trying to be better.

A link to donate to the ACLU if able and inclined. I know I am

#us politics #donald trump #election 2024 #aclu #a promise to myself #how is this comforting you May ask #bc we are not fighting alone or uninformed #we have good and strong groups in our corners defending what we believe in #it’s not over yet #we have to try and pushback #added Alt image descriptions since this is leaving containment #happy to see many engaging with this to either donate time or money or both #really warms the cold heart of mine #wow this broke containment #overall it’s been pretty nice seeing people engaging with it ready to roll up their sleeves and get to work #they did the travel ban right at the beginning of the previous presidency too #also every major civil battle in the last century #brown V board of education- the one that desegregated schools #loving V Virginia- legalized interracial marriage #roe V wade- legalized abortion #United States V Nixon- watergate scandal WHICH LIMITED US PRESIDENTAL POWER #Edwards v. Aguillard- helped allow schools to teach evolution #Planned Parenthood v. Casey- another abortion case #ACLU v. NSA- to stop the NSA spying on wikipedia users #Ingersoll v. Arlene's Flowers- fought to stop LGBTQ discrimination from businesses #Obergefell v. Hodges- case that legalized gay marriage #literally WAY MORE GUYS #so don’t fall into dispair! these are literally one of the good ones!

I need ya’ll to realize running back to TikTok like nothing fucking happened is exactly what this motherfucker wants. He wants you to run back and to be grateful. He wants you to forget that the Supreme Court has just passed something that indicates they can pursue intense censorship and remove our access to free speech and non-propagandized/monitored spaces whenever they want. He wants you to be so focused on all this that you completely forget that he’s about to pass at least a hundred horrific policies stripping us of our rights as soon as this week. He wants you to stop talking about Palestine who is still in danger and is in desperate need of aid despite the ceasefire. He wants you to turn your attention away from all the people in LA suffering thanks to the fires.

I don’t want to say it’s just an app, because it’s not. I was incredibly sad about losing TikTok yesterday. Many of us had a community that meant a great deal to us torn away suddenly and I am not saying we shouldn’t be upset about that. But I am saying that as much as the Supreme Court has more important things they should be focusing on over banning TikTok we have more important things to do then run back to an app that was obviously used for a publicity stunt by Trump and will inevitably be influenced by him and his fascism.

We’ve been discussing boycotting Instagram, Facebook, Twitter/X, and other Meta platforms due to their connections to Trump and his posse of billionaires. TikTok must be treated the same way so long as the CEO and company is in Trump’s pocket.

#reesie rambles #tiktok #us politics #politics #tiktok ban #supreme court #donald trump #I’m very scared to post this because I don’t want to be subject to fighting or whatever #listen I’m just a fkin high schooler in America who is scared af about how the next 4 years are going to go #I need those of you who actually have the power to change things to do so

Let the poor man rest.

#also no he doesn't want to experience life as a normal person. no he wouldn't sacrifice his powers to live again.#he LOVED being powerful. he was very proud of his powers. he was at the top of the world. what he disliked was being so lonely at the top.#which having reunited with Geto now he is not.#and he wanted to keep the next generation safe due to his past regrets and teach a generation of kids to be at the top together.#and he wanted to get rid of the corrupt higher-ups and reform the Jujutsu society.#and he did all of that. Yuta and Yuuji are both alive and safe and the kids are all reunited with each other stronger than ever #and the higher-ups are d**d.#Gojo obviously wouldn't hate to keep living. he clearly didn't expect to lose and die. but as he himself confirmed #he died doing what he loved. he went out the way he wanted. he went out with a bang. he had the best fight of his life and gave it his all.#as he said 'he had fun'. he said it would have been embarrassing if he died of old age or sickness.#and now that he's gone he's happy with his friends and especially Geto. he found peace.#He said it himself 'Now i'm wishing that it's not just a dream'.#also for those of you who say that Geto & Gojo wouldn't be together because one would go to hell and one to heaven... no. just no.#first of all. Gojo did a mass m*r*** before his death #second of all. they're Buddhists. they don't have heaven and hell. don't bring Abrahamic religions into everything.#and you'd be surprised by the excuses the Abrahamic religions find to not let people in heaven.#probably Gojo wouldn't go to heaven even if he didn't kill the higher-ups due to...idk... occasionaly doing pranks or sth.#but Gege apparently created a whole other afterlife of his own. and Toji Geto Gojo Nanami and everyone were all gathered there together.#you SAW that. so stop.#jujutsu kaisen #jjk #gojo satoru #satoru gojo #jjk gojo #gege akutami #my two cents #satosugu

give me your complete and unwavering devotion.

#cant have a vampsona without some religious imagery #i love the dynamic of a god and a devotee #a servant completely and utterly devoted to her god and yet a god is nothing without its worshippers #still has that power imbalance yet that necessity of being together #yummiii #also i hope the three wise monkeys reference was clear !!!#its basically telling her to turn a blind eye on others. telling her to avoid having evil thoughts i.e. not being devoted etc #idk does that make sense ??? eh whatever thought it was p cool #𓆩♱𓆪 #my art #tw blood #hints of cannibalism if you squint hard enough

Okay, without trying to take away from the joy we are feeling, we must stay vigilant. This ceasefire deal is 3 phases, the first is a 42 day pause for hostage exchange which is set to start on SUNDAY, as long as Netanyahu’s cabinet signs off on it. The IOF is not expected to fully retreat from Gaza, but stay to ‘mandated zones’. Palestinians are meant to be able to return to their homes, but with Israeli soldiers still there, this is not a guarantee. The 600 aid trucks a day into Gaza during this 42 day phase 1 is still not enough.

THIS IS NOT OVER. We do not know the details of phase 2 and 3, and nothing has been agreed for these phases in writing. We must not get complacent in this moment of respite. Please, do not stop fighting. This is not over until every Palestinian can return home, until the occupation is gone, until all of Palestine is free.

Keep protesting and campaigning, keep donating because aid organisations need all the help they can get, especially in the next 6 weeks, and it might be the only window people get to evacuate. This is a step in the right direction, but it is not over.

sources: 1 , 2

#we must also recognise israel’s pattern of violating ceasefire deals like they have done with gaza and lebanon #how they have recently violated the 50yr long deal with syria and are occupying the golan heights #this is good but it is not enough and with trump about to be back in office this can fall apart very easily #granted biden is just as bad but we know trump’s unashamed bloodthirsty stances #genocidal apartheid ethnostates do not give up their power unless you rip it from them #palestine #free palestine #gaza #gaza ceasefire #free palestine 🇵🇸#i hope this is the beginning.#will update with more sources when more comes out

worried that thing you put in your art or writing or game or music is too self-indulgent, too self-referential, too niche for anyone but yourself? fear not! you can do whatever you want forever. and you should.

#writing #art #music #games #things i have to remind myself of daily #anyway ive found those things you're worried about sharing are often the most powerful things you CAN share #i hope you write #<- i would like to replace that tag with something that is less conversational #it makes reblogs awkward #anyway good morning. i have so many things to do today but instead i am crafting a memorial to my partner's best friend in my fanfiction.

Thinking about Laura scolding her dads for smoking. They're both on the couch, Logan with his cigar, Wade with a fucking menthol.

Laura: You're gonna get cancer!

Wade: I already have cancer

Logan: I can't get cancer

Wade: *glares* Lucky bastard

#this post is a reminder that wades entire body is made up of cancerous cells and he is forever burdened with life because of it #the cancer is quite literally keeping him alive #and killing him 24/7 #deadpool and wolverine #poolverine #logan howlett #deadpool #wade wilson #deadpool 3 #wolverine #laura kinney #laura x23 #x23 #don't smoke kids #you are not deadpool OR wolverine #you do not have regeneration powers

same people crying about ups drivers winning $42/hour are the same people who dismiss unions and say they just take your money and don't do anything for you. Bet you'd like $42/hour!!!!!!!

#not to discount the experiences of workers like those part of the national nurses united union #who are working to unseat corrupt and ineffective union staff who have not been representing their members #but a union is made up of its members and if you dont like what your union is doing there are avenues to get involved #also! a union's power comes from its membership numbers. if youre working at a union site and youre not a member. well.#why do you love management so much #and if your workplace isnt unionized. well. there hasnt been a better time in a century to get started #henry speaks
