australia watching the US election knowing full well that our government is about to go: COPY+PASTE.
and to anyone who sees this, my DMs are always open if you want to talk.
“What options do I have besides suicide?”
this is NOT an “alternatives to suicide/coping methods” post. it’s “what do we do now?”
1. have hope and keep trying to do good
do what you gotta do to make it through this week
be brave and be kind; we are still here
survive for the people who have survived before, and to spite the people who want you to despair
call a hotline
when you are miserable, make something; it will change the world
2. it might not be over yet
check whether your ballot was counted, you’re allowed a few days to fix errors
it might just be a signature mismatch
fix your ballot if someone made you vote for someone you didn’t want to
good things happened in this election too
more positive ballot measures passed
3. the way out will always be community
bond and organise with your community
engage in community activism
the way forward is together; anarchism starts in the now
you’re still allowed to stay/get sober, and you’re allowed to take precautions if you’re not sober
do your own trans healthcare
dont forget to vote and for kamala so America is still somewhat livable and our president isnt sucking russias cock
8.16.20. USA
In major cities across the country, mailboxes are being removed or locked.
👆🏼At the same time, FedEx is halting deliveries to Black neighborhoods in Chicago.
The new changes come from Trump’s appointed Postmaster General, Louis DeJoy, justifying the cuts as cost-saving.
Ask yourself why any public service should operate as a business.
Ask yourself why this country centralizes power to allow for 1 person to destroy an entire public service. Why does the presidency exist and why should they have this power?
OK So with the shit with the USPS going on:
1. Check your Voter registration to make sure everything is up to date. If you can, request a Mail-In Ballot. I live in CO, where all elections are Mail-In only now, so I get one anyway.
2. Fill out your ballot per the instructions on your Ballot. Some Notes:
Read Instructions thoroughly, and fill out your Ballot in private.
Do NOT post pictures of your Ballot as this may invalidate it. DO Post pictures of your “I Voted” sticker.
Make sure to vote for all the offices up for election- as important as the presidential election is, your mayor, governer, local school board and sherrif have a MUCH bigger impact on your immediate safety and quality of life. Google your candidates, look up the Leauge of Women Voter’s Guides for a reliably Impartial rundown of your local candidates.
Remember also that it is better to have someone in office that is only moderately incompotent, than it is to have someone that actively wants you dead. It is the first step to having someone worthwhile next time.
If you wanted a third party option, your local elections are the best place to do this- my own city council has several Green Party members and it got me city-sponsored single-stream recycling! Its also moving the state legislature significantly farther left.
3. INSTEAD OF MAILING IT- LOOK UP WHERE YOUR BALLOT DROP-OFF LOCATIONS ARE.
They’re boxes you drive or walk or bus or bike or whatever up to and drop your ballot in, and the elections officials will have it that evening. Pros of Ballot Drop-Off:
Can be turned in the same day you reccive your ballot, if you want to get this over with ASAP
Open 24/7, so you can drop it off whenever
Absolutely guaranteed to get your vote counted, regardless of what Donald does with the Post Office.
No waiting in line
No exposing yourself to the coronavirus
Most cities will have several ballot Drop-Off locations, at places like the grocery store, the county courthouse, city hall, at high schools etc. Google your town or county name and “Ballot Drop Off Locations” and it’ll give you directions even.
Absolutely Save the USPS, but this is the BEST way to make sure your vote gets counted this
Please vote blue so i don’t have to leave the US, i don’t wanna leave my family but i have to so i can stay safe
October Updates
Hello, my lovely readers, I hope you all are doing well.
Unfortunately, I have to announce that there won't be any October monthly voting because a relative of mine has passed away and all sorts of chaos and problems just got thrown in.
This was absolutely beyond my expectations when I just got out of my 3 weeks of nonstop work.
At the same time, it seems I have underestimated my work schedule and its busyness as it appears that we are still not out of the busy season this time because of unexpected events happening around us.
So any updates or posting of any fanfic may be slower than how I like as sadly, I won't have too much time to tackle writing these next few months.
But don't worry! I still plan to post a fanfic at least once a month especially since we did that Sung Jinwoo x Reader voting. I intend to post those in the future, I promise that.
For now, any monthly voting would be unstable. It might happen or not depending on how it goes with my work on that monthly.
I'm really terribly sorry for this and for the past weeks of bad news that has been going on.
September One Shot Voting Poll & Update
Hello everyone, it's heirloomgem here. I hope you have enjoyed last month's fanfic.
Anyway, before we go for this month's voting poll, I have a little announcement to make.
It's a little sudden but any update or publishing of a one-shot may take longer than usual because I'm having surgery on my arm because of work.
And with the busy season coming at my workplace, after surgery, I will be plunged into work right away, and I won't have much time to recuperate or to write at all.
So I apologize for the slower pace. I might only post one fic for a while or if some unforeseeable accident happens at work, I might go into a little break even though I just started getting active again here, I apologize.
I'll write as much as possible and schedule some fic to post.
But anyway, I won't delay with the voting.
Here are the choices for this month.
P.S. You are more than welcome to send a request for the monthly one-shot.
August One-shot voting poll
Hello everyone, its Heirloomgem here! I hope everyone is doing well.
As everyone knows, we did a voting poll for a monthly one-shot and the result was a landslide victory for YES!😁
Thank you so much for taking the time to vote! It means a lot to me.🥰
Anyways, since the final decision is a definitive YES.
The monthly one-shot voting poll will be with 3 different animes/mangas with each character. You can pick and choose whoever you want and whoever character wins, I'll release a one-shot fic of them.
You can also send me some suggestions/requests regarding the characters that are picked for the month only. However, I won't be able to do all the requests as I'm only picking some to write about.
With that said, I'll be only writing and posting a one-shot on the character who wins.😘
And so without further ado, we'll start now!
Here are the characters for August One-shot series to pick from:
Once 1 week is up and the result is out, I will be posting a one shot series on the winner right after.
Monthly Writing Plan
Hello, my lovely readers. It's me, heirloomgem! I hope that you guys enjoyed my latest fanfic and are doing well.
I'm actually planning on posting a monthly voting poll with 3 different animes or manga with characters to choose from.
You can pick/vote for whoever interests you and either send me any suggestions or request one shot regarding those characters. And whichever character wins on the voting poll, I'm going to post a one-shot series on them.
Please tell me if you are interested in it and I, then, would proceed with this plan.😊
I'm sorry for the past vote that was erased. I have to redo the voting duration. Please forgive me😫😭🙏
I literally don't understand the point of voting.
Like, all we're doing is replacing one old white guy with power with another old white guy with power and giving them more power. (Excluding Obama)
Yall really believe we're working a democracy and doing the best for ourselves? Yall crazy.
And even if we get a lady or black person (again) or someone mildy young chances are they are just as messed up. Most people who go for president go for their own benefit rather than the citizens'.
Free ticket to SPN convention and tea with Misha
are you registered to vote? You should be. And you should vote blue all the way down the ballot if you don’t want to live in a racist country. Misha Collins supports Kamala Harris so why shouldn’t you?
⚠️ Huge Update ⚠️
I'm working on another video for my YT channel so that it'll probably be the biggest video I ever made, however no video is complete without an eye-catching thumbnail.
So that's why I want you guys to vote for the best thumbnail art that is considered essential viewing
Thumbnail #1
This is the thumbnail I made in 2023, it's considered to be outdated. Although I personally like the shading of the darkness, it seems kinda overwhelming whenever I do the eyes in the darkness, and also the room that Greenie is hiding in feels empty.
Thumbnail #2
This is the video I originally planned to make in 2023, which is later remade in 2024. Honestly, despite the light on the door not looking realistic, I personally think that the hand drawn aesthetic sounds pretty neat, the glowing red eye looks neat and the title render looks pretty good, but even better when it has retro features.
In your honest opinion
Happy New Year btw
I love this community so much that I'll rely my next year project here.
I have 3 social medias asking about the au people are most interested and apparently these 2 got the most votes and got the same amount.
So I'll ask you guys to choose as the final round.
Here are Vince character design in each au
Eldritch au :
Criminal au :
See ya next time!!
Since I post my content here too, might as well ask here. There's 4 au of Dead Plate I wanted to do but don't know which one people will be interested in the most. So yeah......
Eldrish au
I've gone a bit too far but oh well.
Criminal au
This one has a twisted, it contains other fandom too.
Official monster au
I won't put in TOO much effort to this one, but it doesn't mean it's a short story.
Secret one
This one is a whole another level, it's a universe I had planned for soo long.
I eagerly await the moment when Tumblr introduces ranked voting. It's the feature no-one but me asks for (and therefore has a chance of being implemented), and I can only hope it would generate some deeply niche discourse about the true meaning of Arrow's impossibility theorem.
My Latino ppl dumb af like trump dgaf if you legal or illegal you ass go get deported 🤦♀️
Petition for the next generation to be called Centennial's, all in favor reblog and all opposed like 🤔
