Funny thing I realised earlier: the UK elections this year happened on America’s fireworks day (independence day) and the US elections this year are happening on Britain’s fireworks day (Guy Fawkes day)

#basically on the 4th of July the UK was like “have you voted???” while America was like 🎆 🎆 🎆#and on the 5th of November America’s like “have you voted???” while the UK is like 🎆 🎆 🎆#do I like the phrasing of those two tags? No. Will I cringe when I discover this post later? Most likely yeah #in all seriousness if you’re in America vote. Preferably against becoming a facist dictatorship for the foreseeable future #(why does my autocorrect not believe in the word facist?)#this is the only political post you’re getting from me about this election because there is no reason it should concern me #bc I don’t live in America I’ve never been to America and I have no intention of ever going there #unfortunately I love surfing the internet while also keeping these complicated things called rights #us politics #guy fawkes night #strangely I haven’t actually heard that many fireworks today #i think the neighbours have just been doing it every day since Halloween (including Halloween)#oh hang on they’ve just started (I was wondering where they were)
