What pissed me off is that for a lot of features you need to pay (and it’s a lot for someone who can’t afford anything) The primary set consists of only universes, characters, locations and items.
And when you are making a new caracter, you get a nice list of things you can fill out!
You can get a similar list to other things, though it depends what it is. Some categories have only one page ^^
I am trying to describe Broken-World universe in this and it’s coming handy!
Of course there are some things you can pay for, such as being able to hace co-workers from other accounts, but those features are not that important (at least to me) c:
The Supreme Court just issues a ruling allowing Ohio and other states to purge voters from their election registration rolls due to their failure to cast a ballot in previous elections.
This is a major victory for the Trump administration and the GOP, and a direct consequence of the Supreme Court being stacked with more conservative judges (the votes were 5-4). This is also a huge part of what Trump/the GOP were counting on to save them in the 2018 midterm elections, which is where Democrats have been hoping to take back a majority in the House, giving them more power to combat Trump’s abuses of power and Republican legislation.
What this means is YOU CAN NOT ASSUME THAT YOU ARE REGISTERED for the 2018 elections, just because you SHOULD be. Thanks to this decision, red states can purge voters’ registration based on their not having cast a ballot in even just previous federal elections, NOT just the national Presidential elections. Effectively, if you haven’t voted in previous senate races or for congressional representatives in the past few years, that’s all they need now to say you’re no longer registered and need to register again.
They’re deliberately counting on people assuming they’re still registered and so not checking until after registration deadlines have passed, or showing up to vote this November and only then finding out they’re no longer registered, when its too late to do a damn thing about it.
And this is absolutely targeted at marginalized communities, low income voters, disabled voters, and basically anyone who simply can’t always AFFORD to keep on top of every federal election and show up to vote in every senate race, etc. Which not so coincidentally happen to be all the communities and voters who have the most to gain from Democratic victories in the 2018 midterms and are the least likely to cast votes for GOP candidates at this point.
This was absolutely a calculated effort aimed specifically at keeping the GOP in power with a majority control of the government come November, and unfortunately, it has a DAMN good chance of accomplishing just that if it goes by unacknowledged. I’m not looking to alarm or panic anyone, simply to say:
If you are a registered voter in a red state at this point, please please please do not take your registered status as assumed. Check on your registration status, look up all relevant voter registration deadlines for your state and district, CIRCLE THAT SHIT ON YOUR CALENDAR, and check your registration status AGAIN right before those deadlines pass, so you can be sure of it before its too late to do anything about it til the next voting cycle.
For my Destiel Secret Santa, crowleyandgrowley. Who, has finally got back internet and received this so I can now post it here :3 This is my present to him and I am so glad it’s finally done! When asked about what he would like, I was given the prompt of Pirate!Dean and Mer!Cas, with perhaps Cas dragging Dean into the water for a kiss. Which was a bit difficult as I haven’t drawn kisses like, ever. So you can probably guess what my google history looks like… The final piece you see here was heavily based on a piece by Gustave Wertheimer, called “The Kiss Of The Siren”. I want to thank whoiskt and bai-marionette for dealing with me throughout this process, I probably would have gone crazy if I didn’t have people in the fandom to bounce ideas off of, and have people to talk to when I’m driving myself crazy. So thank you, and I’m glad that you like it C&G! I am now going to give my poor tablet a rest before I start something else lol
So I got busy with school and working on other projects, so I didn’t get to do any new pieces for mermay. I really wanted to participate but it just didn’t work out. Instead, have this massively old art I did that nobody cares about! As it says above, it was for a destiel secret santa swap I did years ago. I ended up getting the short end of the stick, but I went all out for my person and they loved it. I am still actually really proud of this, I put a LOT of hard work into it. Happy last day of mermay everybody!
I mean I SAY I love the ‘Enemies to Lovers’ trope but what I really MEAN is that I love the
‘Enemies to Resentful Allies In A Time Of Crisis to Grudging Mutual Respect to Growing Fondness Concealed By Snark to Hurtful Betrayal to Slow Reconciliation With A Greater Understanding Of Each Other to Strange But Solid Friendship to Unexpected Feelings In A Time Of Crisis to Denying Their Feelings While Growing Closer As Friends to Epiphanies Of Love In The Worst Possible Circumstances to Mutual Pining to Unbearable Sexual Tension to Lovers’
