You guys don't get it, like if you're not from Texas you don't get it. Most people here seem to just wanna keep their guns and like not have to pay high taxes, but thats were their ""conservative "" views end. Texas is a minoriry-majority state. Dallas and Austin have some of the biggest LGBT populations in the US. To even call Texas a red state is CRAZY TO ME. ITS GERRYMANDERING!

People really need to remeber that most red states are only red bcs of voter suppression. Time and time again looking into the actual political leanings of populations has proven that if every single American adult voted the republicans would never win another election anywhere and that's without getting rid of gerrymandering and the electoral college. This is why they're obsessed with making sure it's as hard as possible to vote, it's the only way they can stay in power and they know it. They've known it since the goddamn Civil War, fuck since the dawn of this country. It's always been about making sure the "right" people are in power by only letting the citizens who will vote for them have the ability to do do so.

And, incidentally, this is why Arizona has gone blue. Despite being a historically red state we have laws to protect people's right to vote and make it as easy as possible, and it's telling as fuck that the second the tide began to turn in 2020 the republicans here immediately started trying to implement voter ID laws and ban mail in votes. They KNOW they will lose if they let everyone vote and so they rig the game as much as possible.

This is part of why you shouldn't write off places like Texas and Florida and other red states bcs they keep voting red. The majority of their populations are NOT republicans and the only reason republican candidates keep winning is because they have suppressed voters at every step of the process, going so far as to throw out hundreds of thousands of votes in some areas in Texas on a bs technicality that would have likely meant Beto O'Rourke's victory over Greg Abbot.

It's fucking rigged. That's why they keep winning. So stop writing off these states as lost causes just because of their elections, damn near EVERY American state has a population whos majority leans left, they just continue to have their rights stripped away by corrupt leaders who know the only way to win is to cheat.

Then why don’t these people who are having their vote suppressed take advantage of their 2nd amendment right and use it to get into their voting booth and to “convince” state reps to stop the gerrymandering? Liberty in these states has clearly failed on the ballot, soap, and jury box, so time for box 4.

here is the link to the petition, i think since it is a parliamentary petition it should only be signed by canadian citizens, but if I am wrong please correct me.

Yes, only Canadians can sign.

If you can’t sign, please reblog to spread the word.

Never forget what they took from us.

This reminds me of the time that I asked if anyone had resources on the history of Shinto and while nobody had book recs, turns out an actual Temple Maiden followed me on Tumblr and was down to chat.

Tumblr has a startling number of well informed insightful people with names that reference obscure hentai.

i find most people who haven't seen it in person don't know that cairo is RIGHT THERE

I loved these perspectives so I took some of my own when I was in Cairo and yeah, they're literally just. Right there. Pass em on your way to work, nbd

No, y'all don't even understand.

There is literally a Pizza Hut across the street from the pyramids.

That Pizza Hut among other things is why Egyptologists laugh their asses off when we see another piece of media where the protagonists get "lost in the desert near the pyramids", because it's like... just turn around my dudes you're only a seven min walk away from the nearest fastfood shop

Yall don't know how much I adore all of this

Excuse me, that's not simply a Pizza Hut, it's a Pizza Hut / KFC combo. This is a very important distinction.

okay so decided to reverse image search and it's apparently a memorial to unborn babies lost during or immediately after pregnancy due to genetic defects (website says trisomy 18 specifically)

so as much as I love to make a joke on here, I'm going to retract my last comment and replace it with:

fuck you, that's absolutely ghoulish behavior to co-opt someone else's grief, strip it of context, and warp it's meaning to fit your personal beliefs i hope you die in a car fire
