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 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!
"I am a concerned citizen, and I need you to hear me. I urge you to recount the ballots from this election and investigate election interference. Bomb threats have been called into multiple polling locations, causing some to close early. Domestic terrorists have burned ballot boxes. An unprecedented number of ballots have been rejected and require curing. There have been reports of polling officers allowing voter intimidation in and outside of polling places across the country and an estimated 20 million mail in ballots are unaccounted for. In addition, many people have reported that ballots were not counted for suspicious reasons such as signature invalidation which is information that vote counters do not have access to. These events have occurred in swing states such as Pennsylvania, Nevada, and Georgia, for instance."
Feel free to add and change what you want, this is just a base for you to work off of.
I hope everyone out there stays safe
This is a reminder to:
Never mention a possible pregnancy/abortion to anyone, especially not through a social media app messaging service such as messenger, WhatsApp, Instagram DMs, Snapchat, etc.
Delete all period tracking apps and to start tracking using a planner or physical calendar
Book appointments for a form of birth control if possible, or to always carry condoms for yourself and other
Look into sterilization options if that is the route you want to go down (here is a list of 1000 doctors willing to sterilize you without a fight)
Protect your fellow person, protect the women in your life, the queer people, the disabled people, everyone will be affected by this
Form communities. Tell your people that you love them. Protect one another. Check in on one another. None of us are alone.
Can you please reblog if your blog is a safe place for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, asexual, aromantic, pansexual, non binary, demisexual or any other kind of queer or questioning people? Because mine is.
I laughed so hard. The sad thing is that this is really true. Tony was an asshole pretty much all the time, but he was extremely horrible in civil war.
Tony recruiting for civil war:
You actually were the one who made it. We were best friends in 3rd and 4th grade before you moved back to the state you came from.
At the time I knew you, your name began with P and we were both girls but I bet that you're queer now so I don't know if that's still true. You had an older brother. I have a younger brother. My name is Isabelle.
You had a Cartoon Network comic book of three stories in one: Steven Universe, gender-swapped Fionna and Jake, and one with Marceline and Princess Bubblegum. (This is why I think you're queer too and hope that you might be here on Tumblr.) I will tag this post with things I knew you did or predict you would like. (Sorry if you're a random person in those tags finding this annoying.)
If you think this is you, please contact me with what our mutual favourite animal was. If you remember our teachers (I do) that'd be great too. I just miss you and want to see if you're out there doing alright. We were such good friends.
here are some cool facts for you
it has been proven time and again in study after study that there is no correlation between mental illness and violent behavior, except in that mentally ill people are more likely to have substance abuse problems and there is a correlation between substance abuse and violence. mental illness itself is not a risk factor for violent behavior
yes that includes mental illnesses with psychotic features
“In this study, the prevalence of violence among those with a major mental disorder who did not abuse substances was indistinguishable from their non-substance abusing neighbourhood controls. A concurrent substance abuse disorder doubled the risk of violence. Those with schizophrenia had the lowest occurrence of violence over the course of the year (14.8%), compared to those with a bipolar disorder (22.0%) or major depression (28.5%). Delusions were not associated with violence, even ‘threatcontrol override’ delusions that cause an individual to think that someone is out to harm them or that someone can control their thoughts.” (x)
you hear that, motherfuckers
mentally ill people - and yeah, even (especially!) those who are sick in what you think of as The Crazy Way - are not more dangerous than people without mental illnesses. it’s not ambiguous. it’s not a matter of debate
how then do you justify using slurs that paint mentally ill people as dangerous
how do you justify it when mentally ill people are two and half to four times more likely to be the victims of violent crime than average
how do you justify it when mentally ill people are at an elevated risk for domestic violence and abuse
how do you justify it when mentally ill people are almost universally the subjects of ridicule or fearmongering in popular media
how do you justify it when mentally ill people are massively more likely to be unemployed and/or homeless than people without mental illnesses
how do you justify it when mentally ill people are coerced and abused by the professionals who are supposed to help them
how do you justify it when mentally ill people are afraid to seek help at all because of social stigma
how do you justify it when these aren’t just suspicions but observable facts
how the FUCK do you justify it
Reblog if you’re bisexual, support bisexual people or are actually a bunch of tiny velociraptors in a human suit
