The Iranian Regime is going to execute rapper Toomaj Salehi for supporting protests of Jina Amini’s murder by the regime in his songs.

Iranian activist Elica Le Bon says, “Iranians in the diaspora picked up on the fact that the regime tends not to execute people who become known to the international community. We have seen many examples of prisoners that were either released on bail or had their sentences commuted through our “say their names to save their lives” campaign on social media, using hashtags to garner attention for their causes, and even before social media existed, through getting the stories of political prisoners to international media outlets. Once reported on, and once the eyes shift to the regime and the reality of its pending brutality, realizing that the action is not worth the repercussions, we have seen them back down and not execute. For that reason, this is part of an urgent campaign for readers to talk about Toomaj as much as you can, using the hashtag #FreeToomaj or #ToomajSalehi. Every comment makes a difference, and if we were wrong, what did we lose by trying?”

So, there's a lot of USians around who are very clearly fucking fed up with their political choices this election cycle, and planning to sit it out.

And I get it! What's the point of voting if there's no one to vote for?

The thing is, I'm Australian. In Australia, voting is compulsory. We don't get to sit out our elections, and I'll be real honest with you - we don't exactly get better choices than you lot. So how do you vote if there's no one to vote for? You find someone to vote against. And there's always someone to vote against.

Now, we have the pleasure of preferential voting in Australia - We get to rank every candidate from 1 to X, and I'll tell you, there's something so cathartic about putting the biggest bastard of the lot at the very bottom of your preferences. I understand that USians don't get that option - you get to mark one person, and that's it.

That means that you get one shot, so aim it at the biggest bastard of the lot. The candidate you most utterly detest. Put your vote in the worst possible place for them. Don't even think about who that vote's going towards, that's not the point. Remember, every vote is a vote against someone. Make sure you fuck up that someone's election day!

#listen ideally we'd have preferential voting but we don't so this is literally what we've gotta do #it sucks but um... literally the only way to mentally survive election day i'm ngl #like that's how I approach it and... sure the rage is still there but at least the ballot is in

before the poll, a quick definition of terms:

"mutual" - you found this post from a mutual (on their blog or your dash) "following" - you found this post from someone you're following, but who isn't following you "random" - you found this by scrolling through someone's blog, who you don't follow. this includes people following you "For You" - you found this on the For You page "recommended" - you found this in a "Check out these blogs" popup, or a "recommended" post when looking at a different post "other" - you found this post some other way. comment how? "reblog ✅" - you're going to reblog, queue, or schedule this post "reblog ❌" - you're NOT going to reblog, queue, or schedule this post

with that out of the way:

okay americans i gotta ask because as an European i grew up with lots of american shows and cartoons and in a lot of them there was an episode where they give the protags a doll or an egg or a bag of flour or whatever and told them pretend to be its parents or something

#YUP! #you take it home for a weekend and it screams it's head off #0/10 would rec - I ended up getting out of it because my therapist wrote me a letter due to my mental health being so bad #there was no way i'd 1. pass and 2. not kill myself over the span of the weekend if you handed it to me #so i got to do an essay instead! but no it's mandated :/ and the robot babies scream literally every hour too on Sunday night before school #so you go through classes on monday with zero sleep too - it's... actually kinda fucked up now i'm thinking about it #although looking in the notes i'm like ??? multiple years of home economics weren't mandated for you? #you have to take it twice here - half a year each time #so half a year in 7th grade #and half in 10th

Forrest and Peggy’s relationship can be summed up in that one vine where the girl goes to her dad with a packet of asparagus and goes “dad look, it’s the good kush!” And he looks at her deadpan and goes “this is the dollar store. How good can it be?”

…..which I put in my killer frequency vine compilation here
