#if you make it to New York call me

[mothandpidgeon]

Here on secret springs business my darling moth.

These are 6 of my bucket list placed - the question is simple: which destination, which P boy and what does the best day with them look like?

We got:

⭐️ Tokyo

⭐️ Sardinia

⭐️ The Northern Lights (destination of your choice)

⭐️ New York

⭐️ Havana

⭐️ Ghana

Much love

Al 🖤

These are excellent choices! Let’s see…Tokyo is one of my favorite places on earth but I’ve been thinking a lot about Javi P in Havana actually for fic writing reasons.

Imagine going sight seeing with him. Drinking a mojito in a little bar. Maybe you can convince him to dance with you.

Maybe a hot night, windows open to the sounds of the city. You’re tired and sticky from exploring but he can’t keep his hands off of you. I digress.

You get the idea.

Dysprosium, Mary Soon Lee

dysprosium, AN 66, is a silvery-white rare earth metal. its name is derived from the greek dysprositos, meaning “hard to get at”, owing to the difficulty in separating and isolating this rare earth element. dysprosium is used to measure neutron flux, to fuel reactors, and to activate phosphors. terfenol-d is a magnetorestrictive alloy, meaning that it changes shape when a magnetic field is applied, and is used to manufacture underwater acoustic systems.

I miss Miles’ jacket, it was such a cool look on top of his spidey suit but, growth spurt aside, it was only a matter of time before his dad recognized it and either came to the correct conclusion or a hilariously wrong conclusion that kinda made him wish his dad just figured out he was Spidey

it is incredibly funny to me that i met steve vai while being completely unaware of his siren-like beauty from days of yore and then found out about it all the very next day

Guest Speaker AKA Rachel the ILBW has another commenter handle now on the New York Post, "Momcwilli"...I find the handle super creepy or am I reading too much into it? 🤔

Did I ever tell y'all that when I was a teen I was trying to write a fan fic about B before he did the LABB murders and I worked so hard on it and I put so much love and heart into it and it was very over dramatic and emo because it was like also a diary. But the thing I did was I made it B writing about himself (he wrote the fanfic) and then I also titled the fan fic "Just Being B". Like why does it sound like a sitcom, on paper reads like a sitcom, but is actually a hard, emotional retell of B's harrowing past and pains and horrors and all these fucked up reasons why he wanted to do the LABB crimes?

Anyway, Beyond Birthday possessed me to write his clown ass autobiography when I was 13 and he really loved doing it.

How to get around making characters OOC for a fandom you're not in when you've never witnessed the source material but the fanfic/fanart/etc got you interested:

Step 1: abduct them

Step 2: tweak them just a little bit, change names and maybe a few things about their appearance/accent/backstory, take out things from the canon material that you don't like, incorporate headcanons that you do, etc

Step 3: they're your OCs now, canon has no power here, it's more of an inspiration if anything

Step 4: do whatever you want however you want to. What are people gonna do, tell you you wrote your own OCs wrong? Fuck 'em

You can repeat this process whenever and however much you want until you have a veritable army of OCs, have fun

I am American, but I know jack squat about geography. I would totally buy this.

the great mysterious caves of New Mexico. idk.

California has some mountains and fog, Arizona is massive and flat as a board with massive roads, Ohio has no fences and all the bugs, and I’m convinced that all of Utah is on a 20 degree incline hill. I know this all only because I have been to these places. I know virtually nothing of the rest of the country.

if i ever write something set in the united states im just going to do zero research whatsoever and make stuff up to sound cool it’s equality

The election doesn’t start tomorrow, it ends tomorrow.

If you haven’t already, please make sure you are registered to vote and know where your polling place is (vote.org is a great and easy way to get that information). Additionally, please make sure you have a way to get to your polling place. Uber and Lyft often give free or discounted rides to the polls, and this year the car rental company, Hertz, is allowing free one-day rentals to get to the polls. More information on that here.

EDIT: NAACP has a discount code to use for Lyft, valid for two rides up to $20 ($40 total). Use code: NAACPVOTE24

Again, it is your right to vote. If you are in line when the polls close, stay in line. It is your legal right to vote.

If you are turned away at the polls, say the following verbatim: “Give me a provisional ballot with a receipt as required by law.”

If you make a mistake on your ballot, you have the right to ask for a new ballot. Don’t cross anything out, simply ask for a new one.

Poll workers are required to make reasonable accommodations for voters who need, including ballots in other languages or translators.

Canvassing is not allowed at polling places, and no one is allowed to threaten or intimidate voters. You have the right to report anything of the like.

All info taken from here

Some tips:

Don’t wear political merch to the polls.

Don’t engage with anyone about your politics at the polls.

Don’t take phone calls inside your polling place — it can wait, please be respectful.

Research who is running locally and see what their policies are. Additionally, research any local propositions that may be on the ballot. The language on ballots is made to be purposefully confusing, so make sure you read everything carefully in addition to your research.

If you’re able to get up early on Election Day, go right when your polling place opens to beat the line.

REMEMBER: IT IS YOUR RIGHT TO VOTE!

Here are a list of state-by-state voter protection hotlines, as well as hotlines in various other languages:

Please vote tomorrow if you have not already. It’s so important, and choosing not to vote or voting for a third party is a vote for extremist measures. Vote down the ballot, and do not let anyone bully you into voting one certain way.

What we are seeing throughout this election cycle (and the last two election cycles) is entirely abnormal. The bullying we see from a certain side and its supporters is childish and dangerous. They spew false information, make racist remarks, and sexualize and discriminate fellow candidates. No single presidential candidate is completely and wholly good, so criticize accordingly.

Vote with those you love in mind, vote with your safety in mind, and vote for those who will be affected for decades to come. Vote for someone who speaks coherently, not for someone who is, let’s be honest, not cognitively alright — and that is the bare minimum of the issue.

If you have anything to add to this post, please do. If anything is incorrect, please let me know and I will gladly change it.

Vote. Vote. Vote.
