me, every time hayden christensen leaves his farm for like 5 minutes: i can’t believe god is real we’ve all been blessed my crops are watered, my skin is clear, there is peace on earth
“The Jedi really need a better sign out procedure for their ProCard. Some guy was able to check it out and order 5 million identical men and nobody said anything? Are the Kamino cloners an approved vendor? Did Sifo-Dyas remember to turn in his receipts? Who signed off on this purchase?”
@writegowrite on the terrible accounting practices of the Jedi Order.
And how did he manage to do this without the person in charge of the ProCard saying something like “What do you need this for? Are you sure we don’t already have something like them in the workroom closet?” *digs around* “Look, here’s a perfectly good set of EU Mandalorians.”
OH My Good Lord. This is the funniest thing I’ve seen in *weeks*
Which is 10000% b/c I’m the person who checks the P-Card in and out and asks all these questions. “Do you really need that many? Right now?” “Did you put it in the budget? If it’s not in the budget then you’ll have to submit a reallocation form to allow for this purchase” “Yes, the vendor must register as an approved vendor *before* the purchase is made.”

I’m trying so hard to keep my sense of humor but so many people have been nasty and entitled in the past two hours that I’m just like. I hear people laughing and it makes me irrationally grumpy and spiteful and when someone talks to me my internal monologue is just “I hate you personally and i hope you step on a lego every night for the rest of your life”
Steve Rogers uses voice to text to send texts and formats them like a telegram
HEY BUCK STOP SAM AND I ARE OUT SHOPPING STOP WANT US TO PICK UP SOME TAKEOUT STOP
Steve rogers fully understands that this is not the correct way to text. He just likes the absolute outrage it causes every time someone receives a text from him and wants to see how many times he can make the same people explain texting to him until they realize. Sam is currently at 14 times, beating out tony who’s at nine. Twice now shuri has facetimed him after reading bucky’s texts. He’s also managed to convince thor that this is the Earth Way to text and it’s great
The Supreme Court just issues a ruling allowing Ohio and other states to purge voters from their election registration rolls due to their failure to cast a ballot in previous elections.
This is a major victory for the Trump administration and the GOP, and a direct consequence of the Supreme Court being stacked with more conservative judges (the votes were 5-4). This is also a huge part of what Trump/the GOP were counting on to save them in the 2018 midterm elections, which is where Democrats have been hoping to take back a majority in the House, giving them more power to combat Trump’s abuses of power and Republican legislation.
What this means is YOU CAN NOT ASSUME THAT YOU ARE REGISTERED for the 2018 elections, just because you SHOULD be. Thanks to this decision, red states can purge voters’ registration based on their not having cast a ballot in even just previous federal elections, NOT just the national Presidential elections. Effectively, if you haven’t voted in previous senate races or for congressional representatives in the past few years, that’s all they need now to say you’re no longer registered and need to register again.
They’re deliberately counting on people assuming they’re still registered and so not checking until after registration deadlines have passed, or showing up to vote this November and only then finding out they’re no longer registered, when its too late to do a damn thing about it.
And this is absolutely targeted at marginalized communities, low income voters, disabled voters, and basically anyone who simply can’t always AFFORD to keep on top of every federal election and show up to vote in every senate race, etc. Which not so coincidentally happen to be all the communities and voters who have the most to gain from Democratic victories in the 2018 midterms and are the least likely to cast votes for GOP candidates at this point.
This was absolutely a calculated effort aimed specifically at keeping the GOP in power with a majority control of the government come November, and unfortunately, it has a DAMN good chance of accomplishing just that if it goes by unacknowledged. I’m not looking to alarm or panic anyone, simply to say:
If you are a registered voter in a red state at this point, please please please do not take your registered status as assumed. Check on your registration status, look up all relevant voter registration deadlines for your state and district, CIRCLE THAT SHIT ON YOUR CALENDAR, and check your registration status AGAIN right before those deadlines pass, so you can be sure of it before its too late to do anything about it til the next voting cycle.
Make sure you check it periodically because the newest voter roll purges likely haven’t happened yet.
Y’all, seriously, if you’re able to vote, make sure you’re registered now. Dozens of states are doing their damnedest to make it hard for you, including requiring you to register months before elections.
Vote in this election, please. There’s a census coming up, with a redraw of voting districts. If republicans are still in control, they’re going to gerrymander the fuck out of it.
