The Democrats won back the House, gained subpoena power, and can now serve as an actual check on 45. This is very very good.
So even if it wasn’t the “blue wave” a lot of people were hoping for, I want you to remember that the GOP no longer will hold as much power as they did. Lots of women were voted into office, LGBT+ candidates were voted into office, more POC were voted into office, two more Muslim women were voted into office, Florida voted to restore voting rights to over one million felons who have completed their terms of sentence, and Massachusetts voted to protect transgender rights. I know there was more but this is what stood out to me.
And right after I finished writing that I learned the GOP supermajority in NC is over and our Governor’s veto powers can now be sustained. And the Dems now hold a 5-2 majority on the state supreme court which means something might actually get done about our horrific gerrymandering and I totally just started crying. I think my anxiety just dropped about sixty pegs.
Despite the gerrymandering and very blatant voter suppression (i see you, Kemp), we did take steps in the right direction today. So take some deep breaths, take the next few days to yourself and get re-centered, and then keep going. Lean on your friends, treat yourself to something nice, come back with a vengeance. We’re in for a long fight.
Of course they do. I tend to lower the price for lowbloods since they could never pay what I normally charge. Highbloods, on the other claw, have more than enough money, so I up the price for them. They don’t seem to mind. I hope.
I met Seth Everman at a con of some kind, and he came up to me and asked me if I was cosplaying as him bc I was wearing his iconic sweater and sunglasses. I said no and pulled out a furless cat out of my bag that was wearing a tiny Seth Everman hoodie and mini sunglasses, then said, “THIS is Seth Everman.” I put the cat down in front of him and gave it a tiny piano and it started playing it really well and Seth looked so impressed that I started crying.
i think the biggest development in RWBY is that the background characters have actual models instead of just black silhouettes
listen, the test of whether or not somethign is a sandwich is if you can eat it while playing poker. You CAN eat a hotdog without having to put down your cards so it IS a sandwich
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
