Poet (Sara Hovda) and SMW Kaizo streamer (shovda). I post about both.

The data does not lie. Black women turned out at 94% Democratic. Black men at 77%. Every non-white voting bloc leaned Democratic by double digits. White men voted Republican at 61%. White women at 59%. If you want a progressive agenda in this country, it must be acknowledged and respected,

Bar chart titled “Gender by race” showing 2026 midterm voting patterns by race and gender. White men (31% of voters): 61% Republican, 38% Democrat. White women (36%): 59% Republican, 40% Democrat. Black men (4%): 22% Republican, 77% Democrat. Black women (6%): 5% Republican, 94% Democrat. Latino men (8%): 45% Republican, 53% Democrat. Latino women (9%): 42% Republican, 58% Democrat. All others (6%): 35% Republican, 63% Democrat.

And a reminder that we have been put through hell for like the last 10 years and most everyone has been weighing in on whether or not it’s beneficial politically to legitimize our existence and that’s pretty fucking tough to deal with and not a trauma that goes away overnight.

HEY CIS PEOPLE: here is your reminder that things are Still Not Remotely Okay for trans people in the US, and a fair chunk of this blue wave has come out in favor of that. What we've won is a slim gddamn chance, and we need you to get a crowbar into it and pry it wider.

Voted. Now it's time to grade more persuasive essays about aliens, which will involve less ridiculous arguments than what trans people have to deal with trying to undercut their humanity.

As a note, I'm planning on trying to beat the last two rooms of Hackers Dreams over winter break. Then I have a whole lot of other things to play lol.

They made a big mistake letting a kaizo person become a poet. I'm thinking of putting a page on my author website that just lists my favorite anime.
