I feel like starfish are one of those animals that are treated as very “normal” by people but absolutely shouldn’t be. Like they’re a wheel of repeating heads connected by a central stomach. They walk around using thousands of tiny sticky hydraulically powered tentacles. They have an eye on the end of each arm. Instead of having a mouth they just have an opening where their entire stomach can be pushed out to engulf prey. And they’re just allowed to exist like this. It’s not illegal or anything.

I do have one thing to say.

This was done to make voting feel hopeless. But that only means that it is more vital than ever that we do so.

How Voting Rights Groups Plan to Fight After SCOTUS Hollowed a Landmark Law

The ruling could have sweeping consequences for minority representation in government and the balance of power in Congress.

“For those folks that believe in a multi-racial democracy, we all have to get out and vote,” she says. “The answer has to be that voters have to turn out en masse in the fall and elect a Congress that is going to restore so many of the rights that have been lost.”

"In addition to mobilizing and educating voters in the South, advocates are calling for lawmakers to pass new legislation protecting voting rights—both on a state and local level and in Congress." . “I think it's important to remember that the Constitution still exists––intentional discrimination is still illegal in voting plans,” Klein says. “I should be clear that this decision absolutely does not provide grounds for governments to go in and try to destroy minority-opportunity districts. I believe that would be blatantly unconstitutional. I believe it would be a violation of the 14th and 15th amendments.” . Taylor, of the NAACP Mississippi, tells TIME he’s already working with NAACP lawyers in anticipation of challenging unfairly drawn maps. 

All the stuff in Red are the biggest things you can support and make plans for RN to help overcome SCOUTUS' Bullshit partisan gerrymandering efforts:

MAKE AND COMMIT TO A PLAN ON VOTING

Speak opening of who you're Voting for and Why with anyone who will listen. Coordinate on candidates!!!!

Join a Protest

Petition/call your state representatives to codify the VRA into State Law.

Get connected with groups like the NAACP / ACLU, donate to their legal funds so they can keep fighting!

REMEMBER: Just because Gerrymandering is now an option to attempt, doesn't mean there wont be any challenges to be held on different grounds that will overturn the maps instead.

Can we support him please?!

[comfygiant]

I would love to share this with everyone who may happen to see this post. Please support this wonderful human being. He spent nearly a half century in prison for a crime he never committed. And the only thing that kept him going was his artistic endeavors. He deserves the best life can offer anyone ❤️

We have got to stop framing our oppression in ways that promote the idea that other people cannot relate to our struggles. Not only does it isolate comrades in the struggle, it actively diminishes recognition of other struggles--often including those even more horrific than what we are at risk of. And this happens especially between Gay and Black struggles.

"when have straight people ever had to check what states were safe for them?" Sundown towns are still a thing. Starlight tours. What states have abortion access? What states have open carry? What states have stand your ground? What states have 3-strike rules? Women, people of color, disabled people, immigrants, and more have had to be abundantly cautious where they travel to. Straight trans people have much more travel risk right now than gay cis people.

It's a new iteration of the same tired question: "imagine if straight people weren't allowed to marry" interracial marriage in the US is younger than my parents. We disgrace people of color by forgetting their history and contemporary struggles, and we abandon queer people of color, Black queer people, by segmenting their overlapping fights.

in hindsight, growing up as an aromantic person who didn't know aromanticism was a thing...it woulda been really easy for me to assume that something was wrong with me, that I was "broken" or "missing" some piece of humanity.

luckily I was autistic, oblivious, and had a huge ego. it literally never occurred to me to frame it as a "me" problem. i just thought every single person i knew was a dumbass

[panic-at-the-aromantic]

redstonedust AND biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist are aromantic??? are all the famous tumblrinas aromantic??

the funnest part of reading books is telling people the plot like its hot gossip

[kuttithevangu]

Everyone is correct to be criticizing Nolan’s odyssey for its environmental and cultural disrespect but I do want to like. Remind tumblr at large that this is true of the film industry as a whole. Even movies you might like

Behind Every Film Production Is a Mess of Environmental Wreckage

Hollywood may be full of progressives, but critics say the industry needs to do a much better job limiting waste and carbon emissions.

the amount of cis women who hate trans men and just disguise it as "feminism" is so concerning. what the fuck do you mean transitioning is misogynistic?? what is a gender traitor?? are you stupid??

Kuzu let Anzu out in the hopes that his presence would serve as a discouragement to Glimmer and Skippy (it did not) and we started talking about aliens with a hypothetical non-reproductive “chaperone gender” that serves to suppress sexual urges and allow people to do things other than fuck. Basically the reverse of the Ooloi from Xenogenesis. If Omegaverse were good this is what Betas would be. Idk if they’d be a human sex or a mutualistic parasite that’s biologically distinct but culturally human. Either way a shortage of them leads to societal collapse. Assassinate your enemy’s betas and send them spiraling into chaos. OR sabotage them by providing a counterfeit beta to disrupt their ratios and leave them vulnerable. They should let us write Star Trek.
