What do you mean by this? Someone said the Republicans win in the South due to voter suppression and I said that wasn't true. You said there was a parity between white and Black people in population in the South and that wasn't true. What do you even mean?
Okay, cool! Now do Northern states bsky.app/profile/gray...
These are Mississippi and Louisiana, respectively. They are the two Blackest states in the country. It is not anywhere approaching parity. There is no mythical huge bloc of voters being suppressed that allows Republicans to win elections here

This is not true. Republicans win in the South because a majority of voters choose them, not because of "voter suppression." They win ~90% of white voters in much of the South and there are more white voters than Black voters because there are more white people than Black people
I understand why a lot of white liberals are like, fuck the south, because they think about the people in power who are mostly white conservatives. But that is only because of Jim Crow, voter suppression, a lack of real funding for Dems there

Yeah whatever I'm a Prayer Book Anglo-Catholic who still considers herself meaningfully Protestant. It's somewhat contradictory but we ball
The Conference of Catholic Bishops voted to ban gender-affirming care at Catholic hospitals at the same time they put out that condemnation of Trump so let's not pretend that they are some beacon of progressivism. Also they're the Whore of Babylon but no matter

Honestly I've been negatively polarized against Catholicism lately because everyone keeps doing the "wow they're so woke" routine with them while pretending every Protestant is Matt Walsh. They still hate abortion and gays and women!

How it feels to be anti-fare evasion but to also know that stationing transit police to stop fare evasion is unlikely to be revenue-positive

The worst part of this administration is that it's making me side with the American Catholic hierarchy
The U.S. bishops defended migrant families. Tom Homan snapped. Nan Hayworth called Pope Leo a “tool of our enemies.” Tim Burchett accused the church of getting rich off of sex trafficking.
Matt Walsh, Lara Logan, and the rest joined in. This is what MAGA anti-Catholicism looks like.

“Pope Leo Is a Tool of Our Enemies”: Homan Leads MAGA Attacks as Hayworth, Others Pile On
It’s the latest MAGA attack on Pope Leo’s pro-immigrant stance. Disgraced border chief Tom Homan — caught taking a $50,000 bribe in a Cava takeout bag — led the charge against Leo and the bishops.

Honestly Death by Lightning is a bit worse in retrospect because of how much I hate it when people in period dramas talk like 21st century Americans all the time. And the sex thing was just childish

I do not play "REDSEC." I do not play Assault. I do not play Team Deathmatch. I play Conquest, I play the objective, I repair vehicles and revive teammates, and if I want to play TDM, I go play Call of Duty

If I just make enough spreadsheets and lists and routines I will achieve apotheosis and become the woman I could be and every day I sleep the right amount and eat the right amount and work the right amount and exercise the right amount and I am forever healthy and beautiful
It is possible to plan a set of cheap vegetarian meals without wasting extra ingredients if I plan enough and create enough excel spreadsheets. I can do it. I can create the platonically perfect shopping and meal plan. This is my white whale
