Help turn the House blue by donating to these 26 candidates in the 25 toss-up (+1 competitive) house races!!!

(The House of Representatives makes laws, so it is important that democrats take back control of the House so it can make and pass the laws we want easier.)

hi, different love anon here because i think the original one was onto something, we should send each other more love anons.

first of all, as love anon 1 said it, your analysis posts are amazing. they're very well written from a formal perspective, and even if one doesn't know anything about the blue guy and the yellow guy in your posts, you still manage to make the reader care about them. and you clearly do care a lot. and i think that's beautiful.

also, can we talk about the fact that you have sources for basically everything you say? that's criminally underappreciated, especially knowing how hard compiling sources is. and also knowing how long your posts can get.

then there's also the art. beyond the things love anon 1 (lanon?) already said, your colour choices and compositions are really awesome. it's clearly visible that you understand how it all works.

i just proofread my ask and as a tl;dr it all boils down to this: i think it's the greatest thing ever that you're so passionate about something, keep doing what you're doing 👍

aannnd that's it! :) have a great (remaining week) and i wish you the best of luck for beast life 👽

ORNOENCJEJCBECOENCOENCOEBSWVDIZOWBDJW THE END HIT ME SO SO HARD. OKU ARE YOU HERE?? OKU ARE YOU IN THE ROOM WITH US????? SPEAK TO ME OKU

LARA MANON CONTENT YEAS

“this is okay — I'm okay”

an; finally writing for my favorite duo , idc what y'all say they are soulmates , Lara and Manon are seriously soo pretty and tell me why Manon was rizzing up Lara during that one live 🤨 that's kinda 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂

cw; suggestive , losers trapped in a hot body , one bed trope , swearing , flirting, kissing and overall just them

"this has to be our room right?" Lara says as her and Manon stand outside their hotel room , it matched the number on the key so the older shrugged

upon entering the room Lara puts down her bag sighing out of comfort, Manon on the other hand looked around the room only to stumble upon the bed wait bed?

"uhm I think we got the wrong room" the curly haired said , she points to the bed and Lara blushed out of embarrassment , have they entered the wrong room? or given the wrong key?!

"ill call management, they can fix this" Lara smiles , Manon smiles back her heart racing how can someone look so adorable just being embarrassed she questions

so Lara called and apparently they were in the right room but due to overbooking in the hotel they had to share a bed , Lara flushes at the thought

" so.. we have to share a bed" the younger announced after the call

"thats okay— I'm okay with that" The older says almost stumbling over her words

after a bit Lara went to the bathroom to shower and after rest , since they did have a big event the next day

Manon decided to lay in the bed changing into some pyjamas , after so played on her phone

in the bathroom Lara's nerves were pumping not only does she have to share a room with Manon but she has to share a bed?

"fuck" The younger silently screams, not long after she got into the shower and took a relaxing warm one

she dried off her hair and wore a t-shirt that was oversized on her

upon exiting the bathroom she takes a look around and sees the older in bed

"hey bathrooms free" She says, gesturing to the empty bathroom

the older looks up from her phone and notices something, the tshirt and shorts that Lara wore was hers?

"is that my shirt" the older asks standing up and approaching the younger one

"what—oh my god I'm sorry i thought it was mine" Lara quickly turned red and started stuttering out an apology

"hey it's alright I also wear your clothes nothing to apologize about" The older holds Lara by the shoulder and comforts her

"besides they look better on you" Manon says her hands finding it way to Laras waist , she smirks enjoying the reaction she got

"oh well uhm thanks" the red haired reply

Without a single thought Manon kisses the younger , how was one supposed to react?? god Lara was going insane , instead of pulling away Lara leaned in to the kiss enjoying how the olders lips felt so soft and full

Manon tightens her grip around Lara's waist making her stumble and mewl into Manon

finally catching their breaths , they pull away from eachother with Lara's lips swollen and Manon's

Lara took the initiative and pushed Manon to the bed soon joining her , Lara sat on Manon's lap and kissed her giggling

"soo.." Manon trails off

"don't think about it just enjoy the moment please" The younger plead , earning her a warm smile and Manon hugging her till they fall back onto the bed

"so do you guys still want an new room?" a new voice emerges , The two panicked and looked back shit it was Sophia

quickly getting off each other the two looked at Sophias disappointed and teasing look

" oh no we're good right?" Manon nods to the younger embarrassed as to getting caught

"what ever you say , next time maybe lock the door"The leader says before she walks out of the room giggling to herself

"I'm gonna tell the girls!!" Sophia screams before running away , quickly Manon follows and so did Lara

In my professional life offline, I work with community development programs funded by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). One of the most important of these programs is the HOME Investment Partnerships Program, or “HOME” (not an acronym for some reason). In the last couple years, my office has contributed HOME funding to construction of around 400 new apartment units reserved for low-income families, plus conversion of a former hotel to single-resident occupancy units for people exiting homelessness and security deposit assistance for renters moving into market-rate units. I have a secondary role in the HOME program (most of my work is on a different grant, although I’ve contributed to the environmental reviews for all of our current round of projects), but I am immensely proud of what our team has done with a limited resource in a horrifically expensive housing market.

In 2023, House Republicans proposed cutting HUD’s 2024 budget for the HOME program by 67%, from $1.5 billion to $500 million.

Their proposal didn’t make it into the final bill. The President and Senate (under Democratic leadership) proposed HOME budgets of $1.8 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively. The final compromise budget allocated HUD $1.25 billion for the HOME program, a 17% cut which was passed down to every local HOME jurisdiction.

I’m glad the budget cuts weren’t worse. But what this means, in practical terms, is that one out of every six people we could have helped this year gets nothing. One out of every six people who would have received rent assistance is facing eviction. One out of every six people that would have received an affordable unit priced at 30% of their income has to keep giving 50% or more of their paycheck to market-rate landlords. We’re doing what we can with local resources, but there’s only so much you can do at the local level when federal funding goes away.

House Republicans are trying to reduce HOME funding to just $500 million again in 2025. So far, the Senate has rejected this, but barring a miracle upset, Democrats are almost certain to lose control of the Senate after next week’s election. If Republicans keep control of the House, and especially if they keep the House and win the Presidency, there is nothing stopping them from gutting housing programs completely.

I understand why people are frustrated with our choices this election. I am frustrated with our choices this election. But at the end of the day, I have a duty to my community. With Democrats in office, I can keep fulfilling that duty. With Republicans in office, I will lose the best tools I have to make a material difference to the vulnerable people who live around me. The people I serve will lose their housing, or they will lose their best path out of homelessness. There is no way around it.

Please, give me the tools to keep helping. Vote for Democrats up and down ballot, and once we’ve got them in office, thank them for doing what they do well and pressure the hell out of them to do better on the issues where they suck.

Because of gerrymandering (and geographic issues in general), control of the House will probably come down to just a few dozen races. I’m not endorsing any of these candidates on a personal level - some of them are probably good, some of them definitely suck - but they are the only bulwark we have against a party that wants to dismantle everything good about this country and lean into all the most shameful parts of our history. Every election matters, but if you live in one of these House districts, your vote is particularly important:

This is technically an attoye dream I had but I’m turning it into a free write story and gonna hyper fixate on this for a few days.

Historical romance price set in 1820-1870

A Muscogee indigenous boy, named Michael by the catholic school, is angry at the injustice of the world and wants to be free from his native residential school in Georgia. At 19, He is too old to continue school and refused to learn to read English, he can only speak it enough to converse with his bosses.

As a factory worker, he meets Miss. Celia, a 17 year old slave girl who is soft spoken and sensitive to the world. He sees her being harassed by a drunk plantation owner and protects her before she takes him to her home to patch him up.

He tells her his real name is Takoda Lanon , and she calls him that from now on.

When she figures out he can’t read, she attempts to teach him but he grows frustrated, but he continues to try because he is falling in love with her. And she is falling in love with him.

He sneaks to her little cabin in the fields every night to eat her food and try to get , her to run up north with him. She is hesitant as her life on the plantation is all she has ever known. When he gets her pregnant, she knows she has no choice however: if they find out who got her pregnant, they’ll kill her baby and hang Michael.

Will they escape Georgia before she begins to show, will he be caught running away from the catholic school? 🤭

To be fair, running a "parody" blog of yourself would be the most hilarious thing to do as a celebrity. 'Mask of My Own Face' core lmao

I can easily think of 14 other things that would be “the most hilarious thing to do as a celebrity.”

Get cosmetic plastic surgery to look like Cher

Drinking perfume on TikTok Live if someone gives the Universe gift

Sign on with {redacted fast food chain} for one of those celebrity collaboration meals like Cardi B did

Hike nude through Acadia National Park

Play a main character in a Kojima Productions game for the sole purpose of befriending Hideo Kojima

Run for president of the United States and lose by only getting 60k votes

Announce you're retiring from acting, making this news a huge deal. Continue making films despite saying you were done. Pass away just as your final performance in Cocomelon: The Movie airs on Paramount+. It gets a 2% audience score on RottenTomatoes. Your iMDB page redacts your final failure gig from your filmography record.

Insist on wearing a full brim hard hat (either Klein or LANON brand) 24/7. 365 days a year. 366 on leap years.

Open a Cameo account regardless of your billion dollar net worth

Become a reply guy for El*n M*sk to gain his trust. Backstab him by buying out his emerald mine.

Hooters sponsorship

Make a huge scene at the coffee shop when your order/name is called. "You guys... hold your applause, please. You're making me blush. I'm just like you! Except I'm a celebrity!" you say to an empty, silent café.

Actually breaking a leg before a big performance.

Why the fuck am I making this list
