Ive been thinking about that exit poll post of yours and the dangerous hypervisibility that the exit poll contributes to.

At the same time, I've been working on a disability presentation about voting while disabled that begins with discussing how there is no exit poll that includes the disability community, that contributes to hyperinvisibility.

I want to include the point made about the hypervisibility the jewish community gets, contrasted against the hyperinvisibility that the disabled community gets, but I worry

Could this do more harm than good?

I think it is a good idea and will not cause harm.

These two populations are good mirrors of each other in terms of opposing disproportionality.

There are approximately 70 million disabled adults in America. As many as 1 in 4 American adults are disabled according to the CDC.

The lowest number I could find for the number of disabled adults in America was 20 million. I will not link the website I saw 20 million, because I couldn’t verify its reliability. But let’s use it as a hypothetical lower boundary, knowing that the CDC estimates that number to be much higher. The lowest number of disabled adults I could find amounts to 11% of the US population. The highest I could find was 28.7% of the US population.

There are between 15 and 17 million TOTAL Jews in the entire world. Not adults. Not American Jews. All Jews. There are, at a bare minimum, 3 million more disabled adults in America alone than there are Jews in the ENTIRE WORLD.

As for American Jews? There are 7.5 million. Total. 5.8 million of us are adults. There is, at minimum, 14.2 MILLION more disabled adults in the United States than Jewish adults.

The population of disabled adults in the United States is more than double the population of Jewish adults in the United States. At the lowest possible number. There are fewer Jewish adults in the United States than the number of Jews who died in the Holocaust. There are only 1.7 million more Jews in the United States than were killed in the Holocaust.

The CDC estimates that disabled adults in America alone outnumber the total world Jewish population by as much as 53 million and the American Jewish population by 64.2 million. That makes the number of disabled adults in America more than 11 times the number of Jewish adults here and more than thrice the number of Jews in the world.

This is further evidence of both your point and mine. Why are Jews singled out as a politically significant demographic? We voted more strongly in favor of Harris than any other religious group and it did NOTHING to sway the results. If all disabled people voted with as much unity as we did they could control the entire country. (I know there are myriad reasons why disabled people may be unable to vote and this isn’t intended to shame any disabled person).

The point isn’t that Jewish voices don’t matter. Our voices absolutely matter. But shining the spotlight directly on us at a time of a 400% increase in reports of antisemitism is bizarre and dangerous. Especially when that antisemitism is currently festering in political motivations. I truly can’t think of a single valid reason that we would be singled out for polling purposes other than to provide people who hate us with a chance to blame us for political ills, further endangering us.

If we are going to poll Jews (and I believe we SHOULD poll Jews), we should also be polling the other religious groups that are similar to us in number. Otherwise it’s a kind of discriminatory hypervisibility that inexplicably endangers a minority group.

Meanwhile, you would THINK that even ONE party would care about a demographic that comprises as much as 25% of the electorate. It is bizarre and dangerous to ignore the needs and desires of 25% of the electorate. It may serve republicans who pretend that everyone is a cishet able-bodied white Aryan living in the 1950s and earns a living wage, but it doesn’t serve democrats who claim to care about equity, inclusion, and progress.

This is also discriminatory in the hyperinvisibility it thrusts upon disabled Americans. There is no logical reason to exclude such a large demographic from exit polls, other than to send a message that their voices do not matter and their needs as American citizens are not priorities.

I don’t know the exact nature of whatever it is you’re working on. But I think the contrast in the types of harm this causes to both groups is a worthwhile cultural cross-section to highlight. I think that as long as you don’t downplay the harm to the Jewish community in an attempt to explain the plight of disabled voters (and it doesn’t seem like you would do something like that), then it is very worthwhile to highlight these inexplicable and contradictory polling practices.

Have any of your OCs introduced themselves?

I thought this concept was an exaggeration, but then, lucy showed up when I was working on a tour guide for the Void Theme Park and remembered that in Theme parks, tour guides are on the trains.

She basically jumped off the train in my brain and just like the barbie bit from Toy Story 2, went:

"Hi, I'm Void Tour Guide Barbie!"

Oh this actually happened to me recently!! Katherine "cretaceous kate" Fleet stepped into my head fully formed and said "you look like you need a victorian-era oc with time travel abilities that can only transport her to pre-human history, preferably one who is passionate about dinosaurs and wants to lez out with her wealthy benefactor" and I sat bolt upright and said "yes ma'am!"

I wanna know what kind of "fun facts" Lucy the Void Tour Guide would sprinkle in at various stops. And I read that line in the EXACT cadence of tour guide barbie bc it is seared into my brain.

So who is your fave psychonaut so far?

Hollis. Always. I actually have a newfound appreciation for her.

But I still love Sasha just as much as I did from the first game.

Please reblog this, its a bunch of safe suicide hotlines for queer folk which I think could save lives since a lot of kids follow you and are too scared to call a hotline since they might get the police called on them or such (also don't feel the need to post this, just wanted you to be aware of this poast)

Hey kiddo! Thank you so much for sharing this, it's really important in a time like this, thank you.

(special shout-out to Umbreon tho for near-single-handedly getting me from 950 into the 980's-990's range to make this possible!!!! You are truly the Boop Master!!!!! 🥰)

OP and wreckitremy are very right. I am nb, and prefer not to use the trans label- almost exclusively because some people say that nb isn't trans, and I'm "barely nb" as it were, so I don't want to get crap for using the label. The reason I don't use the trans label as an nb is exactly because people are exclusionary. If no one had xcekait's attitude, I'd be totally happy to use the label trans.

I'm gonna be honest, I don't understand, like, most of the submissions here. I'm not coming here to be mean or hateful, this is coming from another trans person. The only people I could actually see as trans really was Mulan and Grenda from Gravity Falls. Or maaaaybe Gene Belcher, though I see him more likely to be nonbinary if anything. I don't understand? Is this something that can be explained?

Trans in this tournament is applied to anyone who isn't cis, basically. So that's why you'll see nonbinary characters like Raine.

That said, contestants could've been submitted based solely on vibes, or because they're canon (like Barney), or because they're widely accepted as trans.

Also, a lot of the submissions included super awesome reasons as to why they have trans swag and, depending on how good those reasons were, convinced me to vote for them.

Basically, headcanons are celebrated in this tournament, whether they're widely accepted headcanons or just a headcanon 1 person has for their blorbo. Just because you don't see these characters as trans, it doesn't mean that other people don't see them as trans.

Hope this helps! <3

I was only able to make this because @wreckitremy was nice enough to send me a blank one in my submissions

Yet another drawing i haven't actually posted to Tumblr 😅 posting takes time, aiight?!
