Today is a day to remember some of the highs and lows of U.S. history. From the birth of the postal service in 1792 to the first American in orbit in 1962, to the tragic nightclub fire in 2003, these events shaped the nation in different ways. 🇺🇸

i dont think theyre going to ban vaccines

dont get me wrong, its important to focus on staying up to date on yours because it's about to get harder to pay for them probably but i think the most theyll get around to is banning requiring vaccines

big pharma does have a financial stake in this too

gotta admit i admire Solas committing to his title of "God of Misfortune" so bad that the plush i ordered of him is going through another misfortune on the way home

and the commitment to having his poor Vhenan waiting so fucking long for him to come back home, also,

people talk a lot about the newer, more obvious forms of voters suppression and election manipulation, but don't often hear about the smaller, less obvious things.

in 2016 & 2018, I voted in New Jersey. the voting machines were old, but they were in separated stalls with a curtain all around you for privacy. order of candidate names was seemingly random (I don't remember trump or clinton being at the top of the list in 2016 - it was 8 years, though, so I just don't remember what their method for order was).

but since 2020, I've been voting in Texas. I think the 2020 election had similar privacy. I've been voting in a different district for 2022-present, though, and not only is there a lack of privacy, but the machines add to that uncomfortable lack. there is no curtain keeping your vote private, only wings on either side of the machine that extend less than two feet above the table. if the person voting next to you is of a short, maybe even average height, they can't just look over. but if they're tall? they could easily glance over and see your votes. not to mention that your votes are completely visible to anyone behind you. and the way that these machines work is that you are given a sheet you feed into the machine. once you select your votes, the machine prints them onto the sheet. you then have to carry your sheet (unfolded) across the room to another machine that processes the votes, meaning anyone around you can see what's printed on your sheet. all of these are factors creating an environment rather perfect for voter intimidation.

and the order of candidates on the ballot? republican is always at the top. I assume they're putting the incumbent (or incumbent party???) at the top, but it was understood years ago that whoever is listed at the top is statistically likely to get more votes. that's why other states randomize the order of candidates, so no one gets that advantage. but, or course, texas legislation doesn't care. random order wouldn't benefit them. so they put the republican name at the top every single time.

we talk about gerrymandering keeping an unpopular party in power (I live in a big city, but somehow I am in a congressional district that is not part of the city, but is instead combined with a different, more conservative city over an hour away to water down our voting power). but gerrymandering is clearly not the only tactic republicans use to hold onto power in texas.
