You of course understand that most such abstentions are in states where the outcome is already determined. What would a democratic vote in Pittsburgh do for your presidential votescolding?

Ohio used to be a swing state! Florida used to be a swing state! You don't get to sit this shit out when vindictive white baby boomers are the most consistently reliable voting demographic! That's how people end up with Ted Fucking Cruz and a gerrymandered state legislature outlawing abortion and transgender health care!

Also, let's say you're right, and there is genuinely no chance to flip your district from red to blue. It is still important to vote. Because if the Republicans know your district is absolutely safe, they don't have to spend any money to keep their guy in office, they can spend the money on the place where their guy is in danger.

If your district has a rise in the number of people voting Democrat, all of a sudden your district isn't looking that safe any longer. And they have to spend money there on ads and shit to make sure it stays safe. And that's money they're not spending in swing districts. That makes it easier for Democrats elsewhere to get elected.

Also, local offices are on the ballot. And local offices need a lot fewer votes to win an election than national offices.

If you have, for example, two judge positions and one of them is "tough on crime" and one of them talks about "wanting to make sure that all people get justice regardless of race or gender or any other factor" it will make a big difference to your community which one of them gets elected.

If you have two candidates for school board and one is advocating for book bans and the other one isn't, it will make a big difference to your community which one of them gets elected.

Isn't Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania which is a swing state? Doesn't turning a state from firmly Democratic to firmly swing require one or both of more Republican and fewer Democratic voters?

Yes, Ohio was a swing state. Not even that long ago, seriously. Eight years.

Kansas used to be Bright Fucking Red. Now it's trending toward maroon. We have a democrat governor. Wichita KS elected an openly trans councilwoman. We kept abortion safe and legal here. Because we fucking showed up at the polls. Sure, our piddly little two electoral votes don't "matter" in the presidential election, but that other shit? That Fucking Matters. We have more work to do, for sure, but showing up and voting is the first step.

Anyway here’s your daily reminder that horses are just socially acceptable/accepted cryptids.

#My fascination with horses has everything to do with their horror applications #and also just being fuckin freaks #country girls wish they were me #horses #I made this point to my sister last night and had to say it somewhere else lol

fuck it, i never ever do those “reblog for X, this one really works!” posts, but this one doesn’t have any of that BS, this is just straight up wishing us good things; and then the comment doesn’t even say any of that either. Zero claims on this post, all positive vibes

May you end this week feeling ever more certain of a future you’ll love

i hate when i, a completely healthy person (very chronically ill), get sick (flare up) for no reason at all (i exerted myself way past my limit just cuz i didn’t wanna be “annoying”)

rabbiteclair

people keep adding me on discord then being like 'you never message me, are you mad :(' as if my natural state is talking to people and any deviation from that represents a conscious choice

in reality if I have ever willingly initiated a social interaction with you that automatically makes you like one of the top 100 people I've known. if it happened multiple times, top 30 or so

Pre-menstrual depression is always depicted as like "He He! I had a box of icecream bars and cried while watching the Titanic!" But in reality, it's more like, "I'm standing the edge of an abyss. There is nothing good inside of me, I'm filled with rage and desperation."

It's crazy that being told how to deal with that is never a part of anyone's menstrual sex education.

This has already been said in the notes, but if PMS causes extreme depression and even suicidal ideation, that is in fact something that most people do not experience and it can be treated

Like for the majority it really is "oh i'm hungrier and moodier than usual"

^this should be a part of sex education so the point still stands
