okay so in two (2) days it’ll be a year since the finale of black sails aired, and i Refuse to live in a world where we don’t celebrate thomas hamilton’s resurrection Properly 

so……… who’s got some ideas for me? 

I’m going to take this opportunity to encourage people to make content we need it asap. 🙂

220 Days Til the Midterms

And a lot less than that until primaries…. Those have already started in some states.

Now look. Millenials.

The youth vote swung Democratic by 22 points in 2016.

A lot of Gen Z can’t vote yet.

Millennials, and yes, I’m one too, have historically low voting rates despite being the largest population bloc. We outnumber the boomers. We could decide entire elections. We could have an impact. But we don’t vote because we’ve been convinced by propaganda that it’s pointless or dumb.

If that changes, we can flip the House, maybe flip the Senate. We can hold our government accountable. We can let them know that we’re watching, and we expect more than the status quo.

Politics is decided by the people who show up.

Gen Z can’t do this alone.

Millenials need to have their backs.

So. Get to it:

Do you know who your reps are?

Do you know who the candidates are?

When are your primaries?

Are you registered?

Five things you’ll find in my bag:

  • Pens
  • Keys
  • Bits of writing
  • wallet
  • spare change

Five of my favorite things:

  • Quiet
  • a nice hot shower
  • sunshine
  • bookstores
  • coffee shops with good atmosphere

Five things I’m currently into:

  • Black Sails (obviously)
  • Tolkien (now and always Middle Earth is home)
  • It’s getting to be archery season again
  • I’ve recently started actually experimenting with my makeup
  • Gotten back into playing Skyrim. I’ve missed it

Five things on my to-do list:

  • Buy chocolate for the office (it’s worth the cost for the change in people’s moods)
  • Actually pluck up my courage and talk to a tattoo artist about my very first tattoo
  • Cut down on my spending because I have got to get out of this job and out of this country altogether – I’m just about at the limit of what I’m willing to put up with in terms of sheer bullshit levels and I’m tired of writing tired-sounding letters to my representatives asking, pleading, and demanding that they stop trying to kill us all.
  • Play some of the games in my Steam collection.
  • Write the rest of Reclamation and go back and finish And the Sea With Its Deepness

I’m tagging whoever wants to do this as I’m too lazy and too busy to do it properly
