god this is a big ask but I really wish there were likeā¦.. a site where you could plug in your state/district/whatever and tick some boxes on issues you prioritize and then the site would give you a rundown of the potential candidates in your area and where they stand on those issues in likeā¦.. clean simple bullet points. gimme the cliffnotes, I literally do not have the time or energy to comb through god knows how many articles and shit to figure out who to support, just tell me what their stance is on X, Y, and Z, and thatās gonna have to be enough.
It goes through whoās on your ballot and explains things like that based on your address.Ā
this is really great. it gives you bullet points on what each candidate has said and done on each issue.
very illuminating, frankly, seeing the candidateās own words and actions. for instance, under ādefense/veteransā the republican candidates almost always say something about a well-funded military, and the democrats almost always say something about getting veterans the medical care they need. makes it pretty obvious that republicans donāt care about soldiers once theyāre done with them.
Imagine first year Harry Potter looking for Fred and George to see if they want to have a snowball fight with him and Ron and finding an odd piece of parchment lying in their room.Ā
Imagine first year Harry Potter picking the parchment up and examining it, because heās learning that in the wizarding world nothing is ever as it seems, not even old pieces of parchment.Ā
Imagine first year Harry Potter tapping his wand to the parchment to see if anything happens and, to his surprise, seeing thin, angular writing appear as if written by an invisible hand.Ā
Imagine first year Harry Potterās excitement when the parchment reads: Mr. Prongs asks who is trying to uncover the carefully guarded secrets of the Marauders.Ā
Imagine first year Harry Potter whisperingĀ āMy name is Harry Potter and I didnāt mean to pry,ā before hurriedly trying to refold it and return it to where heād found itĀ
Imagine first year Harry Potterās astonishment when the writing reappears, this time saying: Let Mr. Prongs share his immense joy that Harry Potter has found this. He hopes that Harry will find the contents of this parchment useful and use it in a way that would make his father proud.Ā
Imagine first year Harry Potterās smile sliding off his face as he says quietly,Ā āI donāt know. My fatherās dead, you see.Ā
Imagine first year Harry Potterās confusion when the writing appears once again, saying: Mr. Prongs wishes to tell Harry Potter that while his father may be dead, he is still looking out for him and is incredibly proud of him. Mr. Prongs hopes that Harry Potter knows his father loves him very much.Ā
Imagine first year Harry Potter taking the map back to his dormitory and spending the rest of the evening talking to the mysterious Mr. Prongs about his mother and father, about whom the invisible man seems to know quite a bit.
