Republican coup update: 2.4.21

Republicans have introduced 106 bills in 28 states to restrict voting access

Georgia (Introduced 9 bills just on February 1st)

Ending automatic voter registration, “No-excuse” absentee voting, and mail-ballot drop boxes

Require 2 submissions of physical photo identification for voting by mail

Arizona (Introduced 34 new bills)

Eliminating no-excuse absentee voting

Purging list of 3,200,000 voters

Allow legislature to choose its own electors to OVERTURN the popular vote

Cut # of polling places in Maricopa county from 100 to 15

Pennsylvania (Introduced 14 new bills)

Repeal no-excuse absentee voting

Throw out mail-in ballots if they don’t arrive by election day

Throw out mail-in ballots for minor signature errors

Purge list of voters who automatically receive mail-in ballots

A constitutional amendment that allows the legislature to draw new judge districts rather than have them elected through the whole state

If Democrats don’t act within their first two years to protect voter rights and expand enfranchisement, they won’t be able to stop the GOP from consolidating more power and getting even more representation than they actually represent.

They barely got congress and the presidency this year and only got it because of historic efforts in the south and west. Imagine 2022 after the Democrats failed to provide meaningful relief and change despite being in control. This isn’t the “last chance” but...

Miscellaneous Symphogear musing: The fact that Hibiki isn’t fucking ripped is genuinely the worst thing about the show.

Öyle dolaşıyordum sayfaların arasında. Nerden aklıma düştü bilmiyorum. Bir şimşek aydınlığı gibi parlayıverdi zihnimde. Düşündüm ve dedim ki: Rabbim sen alıp bu kızı buralara, geçebileceği en uygun kapının dibine getiriyorsun. Kapıya rahat ulaşması için yolları açıyorsun, eline de anahtarı tutuşturuyorsun. Dedim Rabbim ne büyüksün. Dedim benim yolumuda açarmısın çünkü yolumu bulamıyorum. Sanırım kayboldum. Bir oraya bir buraya savruluyorum, mevsimi olmayan zamanlarda dala düşen şaşkın tomurcuk gibiyim. Derbeder, ne yapacağını bilemez halde. İçimde hiç geçmeyen, yerli yersiz sızlayan bir yara, bir burukluk. Bilirsinki senden başka kimseciklere açamadığım dertlere müptelayım. Yarın yeni bir anahtar bulmak için yine yollara düşeceğim. Bilmiyorum açarmı kilitli kapımı ama deniyorum. Bana doğru kapıları açacak doğru anahtarları buldur Rabbim. İstiyorumki açmaya çalıştığım her kapıdan sen razı ol. Ah Rabbim niyet ettim senin adınla bir kapıyı yoklamaya. Hayırlı tokmaklara dokundur, hayırlı muştular gönder.

Deca-dence episode 9 was great, but also really hard to watch. Because the actual gadoll factory raid is a super fun operation to watch! There are lots of moving parts and good character moments for characters you don’t really expect to get them, and it culminates in what’s just a lot of straight fun. But it’s what it all means that makes it hard - that look Kaburagi gives Pipe at the start of the episode, and Natsume’s reaction to the Gadoll Genocide System, we’re seeing how the reality of what’s happening is going to affect our characters. And Natsume especially I really want to see what this does to her, just 2 episodes ago we had her talk about what losing even a bit of hope might do to her, but how does she react to what she believed about her entire world being completely torn away? I just fuckin, I’m afraid yo. I’m worried for her. I’m also super fucking excited though because our girl Tomori Kusonoki’s given Natsume such an incredible voice and I think whatever Natsume’s reaction ends up being, it’ll definitely be an excuse for Tomorin to flex, and by god is that hype.

Re:Zero s2ep9 was good because it introduced a ton of new waifus, the most important of which being uh, the Witch of Gluttony, Daphne - a BDSM loli with a great colour scheme voiced by Nao Touyama. And fuck is this a different performance from her than I’ve come to expect, but it was super poggers too, she sounded eery as all hell but still cute enough to be a great waifu, I really loved the voice she gave to the character.

And then speaking of voice acting, I guess this is more to do with mixing, but Satella’s various “aishiteru” at the end were fucking genuinely scary. They just went to a lot of effort to make the sound come from all different angles and have all these weird filters that made it sound like it was playing directly into my fucking brain, it was freaky as hell and I adored it.
