“You know, ever since we were little, I would get this feeling like… Like I’m floating outside of my body, looking down at myself… And I hate what I see… How I’m acting, the way I sound. And I don’t know how to change it. And I’m so scared… That the feeling is never gonna go away.”

THE EDGE OF SEVENTEEN (2016) dir. Kelly Fremon Craig

accepting that you’re objectively weird & owning it is infinitely better than being constantly desperate to appear normal to people who don’t even matter to you

Voting will not fix everything. Voting is not the only tool we have. It may not even be the most effective tool.

But it's free, widely available, and useful.

Saying "voting is not enough" makes sense. There are limits to the power of voting, especially in gerrymandered districts.

But the claim that "voting is useless" does nothing but provide the right wing with data that says people don't care.

hey so the Democrats are in charge at this very moment. They could enshrine abortion rights in the constitution at this very moment. Why would they wait until after midterms to do something, and if they aren't gonna wait until after midterms, wtf does this have to do with midterms?

[fandomsandfeminism]

The only way to "enshrine it in the constitution" would be to make it an amendment. This requires a 2/3 vote from both the House and the Senate.

Which... wouldn't pass.

I know this is shocking. But "being in charge" doesn't actually mean unlimited power.

This post mentions the midterms because it 1. Could give us a super majority needed for this kind of amendment and 2. Would affect STATE governments which could safeguard abortion on a state level.

[pax-no-pax]

Vote these midterms. It has never been more critical to stop this shit. Those playing the long con game have been waiting for this most of all. The more freedoms they remove from us the stronger they get. Stop the backwards slide to remove rights from everyone but the rich white male.

Vote these midterms. If Republicans win any more seats in The House or The Senate, they’re going to use the opportunity to enshrine THEIR beliefs as much as they possibly can. It takes votes from two-thirds of Congress to overturn a presidential veto and force a law into place. HELP KEEP, AND FLIP, AS MANY SEATS BLUE AS POSSIBLE.

[soleminisanction]

Being in charge doesn't actually mean unlimited power.

Read that again and memorize it, people. They literally told you in 2020 that the goal was to get a supermajority, that they NEEDED a supermajority to get anything done, and then THEY DID NOT GET A SUPERMAJORITY. They got just enough to stem the tide and no further.

Anybody who says things are just as bad now as they were under Trump is full of shit. Don't buy into their bullshit. There is a wide spectrum of people running under the democratic banner; find the most progressive one and vote for them. Move the party as far left as you can and, more importantly, get as many Republicans as we can OUT.

KEEP THE SEATS. FLIP THE SEATS.

[thejollywriter]

An additional point: another reason this mid-term means so much isn’t just all those extra seats. The decision has done two things: massively piss off the organized left, and taken away the single carrot that has been used to drive right-leaning single-issue-voters to the polls for almost forty fucking years.

The republicans think they won this, it’s over and done, and they just fucked themselves. But it is up to us and our turnout this november to ensure their mistake sticks, forever.

it’s so true that the greatest weapon against nihilism and existential despair is to find joy in the mundane and never stop chasing after love

Adam Driver for The New York Times: EARLIER THAT DAY at the Greenwich Hotel, as morning snow began to fall outside, Driver poured a cup of coffee and mulled months of potential awards-show appearances for Marriage Story. (He’s since been nominated for a Golden Globe and a Screen Actors Guild Award, and is expected to earn a best-actor nod when the Oscar nominations are announced Jan. 13.) “Acting is always filled with these weird juxtapositions,” he said. “It’s not glamorous in its making, but in the selling of it, it seems like it is.”
