#ban repeal

[justaz]

merlin’s secret being a visual thing. when he is around arthur or gwen or leon or morgana or [insert whatever character here] merlin seems pale and thin, almost like a ghost or an apparition. when the sun lands on him he reflects it like a corpse, he eyes seem dark and dull. he has this ethereal beauty to him, this otherworldly visage that leads many to believe he is of fae blood. he just doesn’t seem to be 100% human. but when he is ONLY with lancelot or gaius (cough or gwaine bc gwaine DEFINITELY knew) merlin is heartachingly human. merlin shines in the sunlight, colors are brighter and more vibrant around him, and his smiles are wide and his laughs are boisterous. he takes on color and leaves everyone wanting to know him. but when other join in or interact with the two, merlin shifts before their eyes so quickly and suddenly that they aren’t sure whether or not what they saw was a trick of the light. the idea still leaves them wanting more and wanting to see the merlin who is just so full of life but that merlin only appears for a small select group of people. merlin who has a guard so high that it has an effect of other’s perception of him.

While this is a good idea, it's also a fucking distraction.

The repubs want to be able to point to their good deed in the hopes the swing voters won't vote against them in all of the elections. They saw how angry everyone is about taking away our rights and are afraid that they'll be voted out. They should be.

Any legislator or political office holder who shoves their religious (or twisted control) beliefs in between us and our rights deserves to lose their seat!

They also hope that by repealing a near total abortion ban from 150+ years ago, people won't vote for the Arizona Right to Abortion Initiative.

They're counting on people thinking to themselves, "Oh, the old abortion ban is gone, so I don't need to vote to make abortion a constitutional right. Maybe the 15-week ban isn't so bad."

Wrong!

We still need to vote this in! If we don't, then it leaves the door open for more fuckery from the repubs in the future. They're already cooking up more fuckery in the form of competing ballot measures.

We need to cement this right in the Arizona state constitution this year. Now. The time is NOW.

If you live in Arizona, vote to make the fundamental right to abortion care a law they can't screw around with.

If you're not in Arizona, please boost this message so more Arizonans see it and talk about it.

And if you're not in Arizona and you think about just continuing to scroll, keep in mind that states like to copy each other's laws (kind of like copying someone's homework in school). To help keep this movement strong all over the country, reblog reblog reblog!

Basically, everyone please reblog this!

(via AZ House has voted to repeal the 1864 abortion ban upheld by the Supreme Court)

Republicans who supported the 1864 ban denounced the repeal during a litany of floor speeches.

“Stop calling it archaic to ban abortions. It’s archaic to do abortions,” Rep. Barbara Parker, R-Mesa, said, adding that abortion is “murder.”

Rep. Alexander Kolodin, a Scottsdale Republican, blasted his colleagues and other Republicans who have said that failing to repeal the Civil War-era law will lead to GOP losses at the ballot this November — and could mean Democrats take control of the Legislature for the first time in decades.

“We’re willing to kill infants to win an election. Put in that context, it’s a little harder to stomach” Kolodin said. “Politics is important, but it’s not worth our souls.”

abortion is not “killing infants”

GOP = EVIL

And just like that, nobody is talking about eating the dogs & cats

oh boy can't wait for my state to ban wearing masks in public, even for health reasons!! I'm sure the Republican majority is right and police officers will have perfect discretion about when it should be enforced and definitely won't be racist about it!

ETA: I originally had a whole fucking essay written here about how this doesn't actually apply on private property like stores and some people say the original exception wasn't necessary in the first place bc N95 masks and similar don't conceal your identity (which is what the law prohibits, with exceptions for things like costumes) and repealing it also doesn't mean anything except to appeal to anti-maskers (who btw CLEARLY don't know or don't care about the private/public property thing)

but then Firefox crashed and it didn't get saved so. y'all get the short version. basically, this shouldn't affect me all that much but it's still gonna be horrible for people who need/want to be on public property while masked and it'll almost certainly embolden anti-maskers to harass people even more

hmmmm….. thinking about my bbc merlin scarian au

[sailoreuterpe]

I think that my main issue with the insult “puriteen” is the implication that being a teenager is the problem and/or that their age is worth mocking. The kids with problems with sex and violence (and calling for more censorship) aren’t springing fully formed from the ether. Someone is teaching them to be scared and uncomfortable. They’re learning from their bigoted parents, their conservative relatives, their repressed teachers. And these adults are Gen Xers and Millennials more and more. Someone is brainwashing these teenagers and they’re not doing it to themselves--at least not initially.

Everyone learns from those who came before: who’s teaching them?

au where arthurs death only lasted like 20 mins bc merlin spent time setting up his little boat to send him out into the lake but before he could part with him, he gently kissed arthurs forehead and it was actually true loves kiss and they lived happily ever after

[us-the-voices-and-more-voices-2]

thanks everyone for coming back!

a lot of people will be lost in the sauce of this extremely sudden blog move due to the other account being terminated LOL

well if you see any other moots of ours that are like “??? What happened???” Just direct them here

@us-the-voices-and-more-voices

is gone, Idk WHAT happened but I just am being way more careful this time round. If anything happens to this one I’ll just make another one, don’t worry I’ll come find you guys!

but sadly it’s happened and we just are going to have to restart everything AGAIN!

this time we are going to have a better tagging system so let’s go!

also to anyone who sent asks on the “bad advice blog” sadly they are GONE I had some replies in the drafts but I can’t access them anymore, I will be remaking the bad advice blog soon but until then it’s defunct and should be treated as such!

and maybe this time we WILL have alter intros who knows!!!

anyway sorry for this inconvenience, it’s heartbreaking on my side too. But I kinda was expecting that account to get deleted/suspended/deactivated so it’s not that big of a surprise for me.

spread the word I’ve moved blog, and we will be back to normal by tomorrow evening!

thanks for your continued support and just dealing with this shit, so yeah! See you all again soon while I fix our pinned post that I also have to do all the stuff AGAIN oh well it happens!
