hi y’all! if the 2016 elections made you feel bad (to put it mildly) and you have no idea how to get involved in the 2020 elections — especially now that the pandemic has cancelled all in-person organizing — VoteSaveAmerica has launched Adopt A State
they’ve picked the six states most likely to swing blue (either in the electoral college, senate seats, or state legislatures) this november: pennsylvania, michigan, wisconsin, north carolina, arizona, and florida
when you adopt a state, VoteSaveAmerica will send you all the information and training you need to help however you can, no matter where you live
i’m adopting pennsylvania because it’s my home and we did so well in the 2018 midterms and now that PA has no excuse vote by mail (i turned in my ballow today) we can really make a difference if we organize well
sign up today! it takes 5 seconds! you only have the future of the US to lose!
this is what plays when you’re dying and your life is flashing before your eyes
*puts this on my End Of The World playlist*
Ok @peachcrushedvelvet is 100% accurate but here are several other situations I feel this beautiful creation could apply to
1. End of the world type of experience as noted above by @nero-neptune i.e. meteors falling and people running, things exploding and desperately trying to survive
2. Desperately running through your house avoiding attackers (guns, projectiles, of some type)
3. You’re in a library and you accidentally knock something over which knocks over all of the shaves domino style and you’re running down the hallway with them falling in the background.
Everybody please contribute
4. You finally experience love at first sight, but they’re in the middle of a bank heist and you’re getting caught in the cross fire
5. You’re getting arrested in roller skates at the laundromat
6. Intergalactic space travel in the form of a gay cruise
you are falling off a very tall biulding
Fallout 1976
An elevator ends up falling down a shaft with you in it in a superhero movie
10. That pot brownie kicks in right as you start falling backwards onto the grass in the middle of an open field.
11. A slo-mo montage of a riot
12. You’re an eccentric (queer coded) villain in an action movie who’s dancing up to the tied up hero, about to explain your evil plan.
Unsure where this came from, if not the palsied hands of the good Lord himself.
Simple premise: Dolly Parton’s “Jolene” slipped from 45 to 33 rpm. Nothing more; no studio trickery, no trip hop drum breaks. The guitar lopes back in and around itself. The bass becomes elastic, hot rubber. The violin stabs become sustained cello lines. The backing choir’s split harmony rattles around, slinking ghostly into the corner. And most importantly, Parton’s once-frantic vocal is transformed from bubblegum country scrawl into something approximating field holler reverence.
It’s our black thing and it’s uniting all blacks in the world. #Wakanda forever.
😢😢😢😢
Remember that post about hoping Black Panther makes black people feel as powerful and amazing as Wonder Woman made women feel? This is that feeling for black people, and it’s AWESOME.
