Particularly if you live in Texas, please vote, just for the schadenfreude. Can you even imagine if Texas goes blue. Can you even imagine Ted Cruz losing. I’m getting giddy just thinking about the conservative meltdown. There is literally zero path to the Presidency for Republicans that doesn’t include Texas. If they have to sweat bullets for the next forever thinking that Texas might be a left-leaning state… guys, this just sounds like a fun time.
I’d like the Lopunny line a lot more if Gamefreak ever played up the fact that Buneary is the one Pokemon that fucking hates your guts from day one
fun fact: buneary learns frustration by level up and is the only pokemon to do so, frustration is more powerful the less the pokemon like you, conversely lopunny is the only pokemon to learn return by level up and return does more the more the pokemon likes you, buneary levels up from friendship.
so the buneary line doesn’t just fucking hate you from the start, its whole dynamic is how it hates you less, while its best move gets worse, and then it evolves and suddenly it’s love for you is one of it’s most powerful assests, so in conclusion i love the buneary line
Greetings friends! The midterms are so close, are you registered to vote?
You: I can’t vote, I’m an Ex-Offender
ARE YOU SURE?
I live in Vermont or Maine: You never lost your right to vote
I live in DC, Hawai’i, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland*, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, or Utah: You can vote upon your release from incarceration.
That’s cool but I don’t live in those states. I live in: Alaska, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas, Louisiana, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Washington (state), West Virginia.: You can vote once you have completed your sentence (parole and/or probation)
Wow! That’s really cool. But, um. I don’t live in those states. I live in:
Alabama: You cannot vote if you have been convicted of any felony listed here. Crimes of ‘moral turpitude’ including: Murder, Manslaughter, Kidnapping, Rape, Sodomy, Sexual Torture/Abuse
Arizona: First time offender? Complete your probation and payment of any fine or restitution and you can vote. Multiple Offender? You have to apply to a judge to vote.
Delaware You cannot vote if you have been convicted of murder, bribery or sexual offenses. If you have been pardoned or had your sentence completed, get your vote on!
Florida Rights must be restored via the governor and a clemency board. In the November elections Floridians have the opportunity to vote for Amendment Four and restore voting rights to over a million Floridians. So that man that threw an alligator at someone can vote?? YES but so can your dumb little brother who thought carrying a concealed weapon would be cool when he was 19. So can the drug addict who robbed a convenience store but has been clean for 20 years.
Iowa You must petition the governor
Kentucky You must petition the governor
Mississippi If you have committed one of the following crimes: armed robbery, arson, bigamy, bribery, carjacking, embezzlement, extortion, felony bad check, felony shoplifting, forgery, larceny, murder, obtaining money or goods under false pretense, perjury, rape, receiving stolen property, robbery, statutory rape, theft, timber larceny, and unlawful taking of a vehicle. you cannot vote unless a bill passed by both houses of the legislature or through the governor. If you did NOT commit one of those crimes, you can vote even while incarcerated
Nebraska Voting rights are automatically restored two years after the completion of all supervised release
Nevada Voting rights are restored automatically after sentence completion if convicted of a non-violent felony. However, those convicted of a violent felony and all second-time felony offenders (whether violent or non-violent) can only have their rights restored by the court in which they were convicted.
Tennessee Individuals convicted of a felony since 1981–except for some felonies such as murder, rape, treason and voter fraud–may apply to the Board of Probation and Parole to have their voting rights restored once their sentence is completed.
Virginia: You can vote if you completed your sentence, including probation and parole. This is not a law but an order by the governor. A new governor can repeal this.
Wisconsin-Voting rights are automatically restored upon completion of all supervised release
Wyoming- Voting rights restoration is dependent on the type of conviction: first-time non-violent felony offenders can apply to the Wyoming Board of Parole five years after completion of sentence. All others must apply to the Governor for either a pardon or a restoration of rights, but must wait ten and five years, respectively, after completing their sentence.
In many cases you must RE-REGISTER to vote but you can vote.
*If you are guilty of buying or selling votes, you have to get the governor to pardon you.
This is not intended to be comprehensive, you should check out your state’s laws for any quirks.
Remember people of color are disproportionately incarcerated. Double check you may be able to make your voice heard
– trying to guess which clothes in the laundry belong to Lup and which belong to Taako (only last 2 cycles because it gets to easy)
– “MAGNUS!” (lasts 6 cycles after the beach year until Davenport bans it)
– anyone brings any plant on board “Better not let Merle see” (never dies, carries over to the BoB days)
– Holding up a pair of pants that are definitely not blue jeans “hey Barry are these yours????” (lasts 15 cycles, but only because Lup drags it out)
– right after the cycle resets: Magnus, oh my goodness! What happened to your eye?? (never dies but is only funny after certain cycles)
– Making up increasingly wild stories about the years Merle missed after being John’d (lasts 56 cycles, Merle is still thoroughly convinced he missed a plane inhabited
entirely
by 10 foot Della Reese’s)
– The first thing they ask any intelligent species (besides info on the LoC) is if they have Parmesan (lasts 30 cycles, after the one were Lup and Taako had a fit because the locals hadn’t invented it yet)
– Cap’n Port (never technically dies but morphs into a genuine term of endearment)
– Lucretia is Banned From All Kitchens (lasts 22 cycles after she nearly burned one down drying to write and cook simultaneously)
– Pretending to be freaked out by Barry/Lup’s lich forms (never dies but after 18 cycles only Magnus still finds it funny)

related concept: sollux sending karkat the bee movie script at every opportunity possible not because he actually thinks it’s a funny prank, but because karkat never fails to get pissed off about it in a spectacularly entertaining way and only grows more incoherently angry each time sollux does it
sollux: ugh i feel like shit, time two give myself a present *double clicks “fuck KK up” executable on his desktop that automatically downloads 800 copies of the bee movie script to karkat’s hard drive*
[1 minute later]
sollux: *checks his computer*
