For anybody not caught up: Tennessee just passed a new map that pretty much makes it so black neighborhoods have no power in local votes. Two things about this. While protestors were chanting "No Jim Crow", white Tennessee lawmakers were caught laughing on video. On top of this, Representative Justin Pearson and his brother KeShaun Pearson were arrested for trying to give their takes on the matter (which is not only their legal right but literally his job). If you give a shit about black people, help fight this. We can't allow a return to Jim Crow.

Heyyy guess where I live

A local paper had some great photographs, all taken by Nicole Hester:

The day before, Rep. Justin Pearson tries to attend a Senate Committee meeting and is barred access by the Sergeant at Arms.

Lawmakers and protesters link arms as the descend the capitol steps.

Once inside the chamber, Democratic representatives continued to stand together with arms linked.

They continued standing together with arms linked as votes were cast.

Democratic representatives take a group photo protesting the redistricting.

Rep. Justin Jones burns a photo of the Confederate flag with the words, We will not go back.

And stomps the ashes.

KeShaun Pearson being escorted from the building by the Staties.

Additional information: State lawmakers have been gunning for Pearson and Jones nearly their entire terms. Most notably, in 2023, the House expelled them for participating in a protest at the Capitol. Their districts had to have special elections to have them reinstated.

Pearson is one of the plaintiffs of a lawsuit seeking an injunction against the redistricting.

The city most affected by the redistricting is Memphis, where locals are fighting against xAI's data center, which has been operating with very little oversight and is poisoning the people who live there. Here is a previous post on that with more information and more sources.

Eternal Empire with 6/8 of the origins:

Inquisitor and Warrior: The Emperor has wronged me/the Empire, we will stop him

Knight and Consular: The Eternal Empire threatens the republic. We, as high-ranking Jedi, must stop it

Trooper and Imp Agent: It's our duty to the Republic/Empire to stop this threat

The other 2 origins

the Smuggler and Bounty Hunter: We gotta stop the Eternal Empire because we're gonna get the biggest paycheck EVER

Theron and Lana’s friendship really is one of the absolute funniest things in SWTOR. Like they started out amicably but kinda resignedly working with each other and assuming that the other was totally going to betray them at any moment, and then at some point realized they would straight up kill and die for each other without hesitation and were just like “yeah ok.” She lets him get kidnapped and tortured for The Mission and is just like “he’ll understand right? yeah totally.” He shoots at their mutual friend knowing she would throw herself in the line of fire and then derails the train they are all on for The Mission and is just like “she’ll understand right? yeah totally.” They understand each other deeply and are also so fucking done with the other’s shit. When everything goes to hell they immediately contact each other. They have canonically gotten absolutely wasted together at multiple parties. Sometimes a wookie is there.

Do not forget that discord is still planning on moving forward with age verification and has only "delayed it" until "the later half of 2026." They are hoping you will forget while they quietly roll it out when no one is looking. Continue to message them about it. Continue to talk about it. Make it clear this is unacceptable. Discord is one of the only places left you can even talk about or share adult content in private at scale anymore. They will tell you "its not that bad if you dont use it for nsfw" but fuck them and fuck people who say that shit.
