Posting this from the bird app since I hope it can help people.
People have been contacting the White House directly to demand a recount, especially since there has been evidence that not every ballot has been counted and will be thrown away if it hasn't been cured.
The link to contact the White House is here!
The following screenshot comes from here!
If you need help writing something, check under the cut! I've provided a prewritten response from one of the replies!
(sorry to tag, we NEED people to see this information. DO NOT GIVE UP. if the recount saved 2020, it could save 2024)
BIGGER TUMBLR USERS PLEASE SPREAD THIS. THIS IS IMPORTANT. THERES ARE MILLIONS OF DISPLACED VOTES. WE NEED A RECOUNT

Posting these because of @creatingblackcharacters's CBC Saturday! Ares here is going to be the main character of a game I've been working on for the past couple of weeks. The bigger one is still a sketch, while the smaller one is the current overworld model! His locs are my favorite design detail :3
BOOPS ARE BACK
So who is ready to crash a streaming site through sheer numbers this october 18 watching The Edge of Sleep? WE ARE.
for those unaware:
Mark Fischbach, aka Markiplier, has been making progressively more ambitious projects for the last several years, including starring in a television show for the Qcode podcast The Edge of Sleep. The podcast is excellent; it's a sci fi apocalyptic medical drama about a mysterious disease causing people to fall asleep and never wake up. The TV show went into production around 2018 and fell into development hell.
It's finally being released, but with a pair of truly upsetting conditions:
- No one involved in the project is legally allowed to say where it will air before the day it debuts, and
- The company releasing the show is holding Mark's most recent project for ransom. His film, Iron Lung, which he's spent the past two years working on almost exclusively, will have a path out of development hell through this company -- but only if Edge of Sleep debuts on their platform in the top ten.
That means zero marketing outside of Mark revealing the air date, and the audience's prior knowledge of the podcast. The company is dangling Mark's future as a filmmaker above his head at a truly frustrating height, and he's asked his fanbase to get him there, because his hands are tied.
If you're not already following Markiplier's work, go check out A Heist with Markiplier, In Space with Markiplier, and the podcast of The Edge of Sleep. And on October 18, help this incredibly dedicated filmmaker convince a film studio that his work is worth investing in.
I will personally watch edge of sleep into the ground to get him his iron lung goal
I just sent them an email as well because I very much do not want to encourage this behavior by giving them views.
THEY RELEASED EDGE OF SLEEP EARLY, GO WATCH NOW GO GO GO
Knowing these fuckers, they released it early when nobody knows so then it flops and Mark is fucked over. GO GO GO!!!!!
ITS AVAILABLE TO WATCH ON AMAZON PRIME NOW (10/15)
Everyone talks about the wonderbread guy but nobody talks about how the wonderbread isn't necessarily the fetish object - it's supposed to symbolize like overcommodification or something. Like wonderbread is such a synthetic suburban concoction it implies wherever it is, that area has become gentrified and mown over by capitalism and this like caricature of commodification. That's why all the other pics the dude commissions are women (typically white and blonde) chopping down forests and stuff. The fetish isn't the bread. The fetish is this extreme caricature of earth and culture being consumed by the unstoppable force of like. Sterile Kroger marketability and commerce. That's why the women are always BUYING the bread and not like, fucking it. Its not about the loaves people. It's about Karen Bad End TF.
Thank you for the additional information!! And also this is so much more succinct than my rant
one aspect of avatar canon i feel like isn't talked about nearly enough is the fact that zuko canonically has prophetic dreams
like during zuko's Morality Coma in season 2 he has an incredibly vivid dream about two red and blue dragons, and then in season 3 he just fucking. meets the exact same dragons for real? there are slight differences in how they look but otherwise he genuinely just dreamed about ran and shaw months before actually seeing them in person? and it's never elaborated on but huh???
zuko: yeah i had some weird fever dreams. there were like these two dragons circling me, and the blue one sounded like azula and wanted me to die or whatever, and the red one sounded like you and was telling me not to do that—
iroh, the only person in this house who should know what those fucking dragons look like: hey What
zuko for sure keeps having dreams like this for YEARS without connecting the dots that it's weird spirit shenanigans. aang eventually has to point it out to him and even then he thinks it's Uncle Bullshit for several more years
so what you’re saying is—
Zuko, freshly scarred: I had a dream that Uncle and I were clinging to a piece of driftwood for weeks before we ended up at a lovely spa and tended to and all my injuries were healed up
Iroh, years later, on week two of driftwood era: maybe I underestimated the sense of humor that the spirits have
Deal with a trickster.
Odysseus: *gently hands Athena baby Telemachus*
Athena: …you were PREGNANT AND YOU DIDNT TELL ME?!
Odysseus: what?- no-
Athena: DO YOU KNOW HOW DANGEROUS THAT IS?! I WAS TRAINING YOU!
Odysseus: no I wasn’t the one-
Athena: THAT POOR BABY WAS PROBABLY SO SQUISHED IN YOUR HELMET! LOOK AT HOW SMALL HE IS!!
they fucking missed Trump again
where's that masterpost of quotes that have no right going as hard as they do. I'd like to submit "Protagonism is best left to teens and the insane"
