a bald eagle, the symbol of what america stands for, attacks donald trump when he barely even gets near it and a sparrow, a bird used as representation for hope/peace/etc. throughout all types of artforms, lands on bernie sanders’ podium and stays for nearly half a minute

this is literally character development for the protagonist and antagonist in a children’s fairy tale movie, it’s unbelievable

american politics is a dreamworks movie and bernie does the eyebrows face on the poster

Rest stops on highways are liminal spaces where the veil is thin and nobody can tell me differently

Explain

The explanation is that liminal spaces are in between places that bridge Here with There, so in fairy tales we often have the Fairy Ring, the Forest Clearing, the Sudden Misty Foggy Forest, the Bridge, the River, graveyards, in some cases

We also have a ton of american urban mythology around famous roadways and sites off the sides of roads

Archetypes like these occur to mark the places in the world where the veil goes thin and humans can have extra-worldly experiences, out of the ordinary way of living

So why wouldn’t transient spaces like rest stops where everyone is just passing through from one place to the next, never stopping for too long, not be a liminal space where spirits frequent, too

Especially since nobody would know if they were real or not

Ok but this speaks to me

I always feel like something isn’t quite right at rest stops

I once slept though three gas stations on a road trip, and the second the car started to slow to turn into a rest stop, I was basically wide awake.

My mom and I were on I-90 in a blizzard once and pulled off at the first exit we could find. Turns out that if we’d gone even a mile further, we would have happened on a 49-and-counting car pileup, and that 90 was closed for MILES. How we found an unblocked ramp was a matter of great debate, but where this gets weirder still is that at the bottom of the ramp was a closed truck stop and an open church full of teenagers–they went for youth group, the blizzard started, and they were stuck until the snow stopped. They fed us leftovers from their potluck dinner, prayed with us for safe travel, and when the snow let up they saw us on our way.

Three days later–Sunday–we were traveling back and decided to stop at that church to thank them. We found it thanks to the truck stop, but this time it was the truck stop that was open and the church that was closed. Neither of us remembered it looking so decrepit on the trip down, and granted we saw it first at night in a snowstorm, but you’d think we’d have noticed the boarded-up windows. So we asked in at the truck stop.

The church had been abandoned for ten years. And yet I still had one of their youth group programs under my sun visor, very clearly labeled for the previous week.

To this day I’m sure we crossed dimensions somewhere on I-90, and that’s how we stayed safe. You could tell me it’s because the truck stop was a liminal space and I’d 100% believe you.

I don’t mind when this post goes around again because sometimes I get stories like this

Bruh I’ve taken the 5 between the bay and LA enough to confirm that this shits valid.

I’ve driven up and down the U.S. East Coast enough times to confirm that this is completely legit.

They are celebrating ID Fraud and lack of democracy, that’s right.

It is estimated right now that 300,000 people in Wisconsin don’t have the right ID to vote on Tuesday 5th, one of these:

Now LISTEN, if you don’t have an ID that they are going to accept for you to vote, get a free ID tomorrow Monday 4th April, you just have to bring some documents to credit your identity, watch the short video, it says everything you need to bring:

http://bringit.wi.gov/how-do-i-get-free-state-id-card

They will give you a receipt that you can and MUST use to vote Tuesday 5th April; is just as valid as the ID, while they are sending it to you.

This is the solution to make sure NO ONE is denied the vote and Bernie Sanders wins BIG, that is what we NEED for him to be president.

3 phonebank calls from everybody of every state and country is as effective as 27$ by everybody, it turns into millions of phonecalls.

Effortless we can and NEED to call to reach everybody in Wisconsin to make sure they know what to do to get this ID receipt in time to vote on Tuesday 5th:

To motivate you, remember how Hillary Clinton wants to control what everybody sees in Internet so nobody has access to free information anymore, like the facts about her.

Also she wants to include articles in the Constitution about abortion, is dangerous to keep opening that door; Bernie Sanders thinks abortion is a health issue not a political one where politicians get to decide what a woman has to do with her own body.

SPREAD THIS VITAL INFORMATION LIKE FIRE, MAKE BERNIE SANDERS WIN BIG ON TUESDAY 5TH IN WISCONSIN.
FUCK THEM UP, EVERYBODY GET TO VOTE.
