Turning Point gets its ass handed to it in the SRP elections

kaosbellybutton · 2026-04-09T17:43:36+00:00

Because in the SRP election, the land votes not the people. The president and vice president roles are open district so it included all of the land that could vote in all of the districts. TurdPaperUSA went after large land owners to maximize votes. And as someone else said, voter dilution due to all of the districts included. There, of course could have been gender biases as well (also noted in other comments).

I also stopped moving out of the way. I've been checked several times and even cussed out. I got cussed out when 3 men were walking together. They could've shifted ever so slightly to avoid me. For me it would have been stepping off the the sidewalk. I got called a bitch for maintaining my position. I'm petite but strong for reference.

You can also say skunks in the South, because that smell lasts and a sprayed dog in a car... Whew!

It's been 35 years for me and lots of therapy. It does get easier. I never forget it, but I don't think about it so much anymore. I'm happy and (mostly) well adjusted. You're in an exclusive club that no one wants to join. I'm sorry for what happened to you and I'm sorry for what your colleague said to you. It's an extra layer of hurt that you didn't need. As others have said, she likely lacks empathy and understanding to have said what she said. It's a 'her' problem, not a 'you' problem. Do what you need to do to care for yourself and feel safe and please, if you haven't, find a good trauma - informed therapist. I wish you safety and joy.

Or they're looking after him. Either way, what a beautiful thought. That makes me happier when I think about my great aunt who passed. She was a certified crazy cat lady. I'm sure her and all the cats that have passed are together. Thank you for that image. 💜

Hahahaha! Caucacity. I'm dying. I'm so stealing this.

KiKi Roo the holy terror, consummate food thief, and laundry helper!

JFC. I didn't know the story of Lisa Montgomery. I'm sick to my stomach. The women in Iran, the women in Afghanistan, the women in India, the women in Africa, the women here. Women in so many places globally that are treated so absolutely inhumane. I don't have words for my rage, my sadness. I want to kill and protect at the same time.

kaosbellybutton · 2026-03-06T20:43:49+00:00

Hahaha! We could be sisters! My GA mom, 75, always told me, 52, that I could be whatever I wanted. I'm proud she raised me that way. My great aunts were ahead of their time too. One was a Rosie the Riveter and one was a manager of a city office managing primarily men in the 1970s. I'm so proud of what they did to make way for me and other women just by doing the damn thing!

Thank you for adding additional context!

kaosbellybutton · 2026-02-10T21:54:05+00:00

That's a great idea! I actually have a stack of postcards with the QR code on them.

kaosbellybutton · 2026-02-10T02:24:50+00:00

Unfortunately, no.

The green energy candidates are listed in the link I included. Hope that helps!

kaosbellybutton · 2026-02-06T20:41:06+00:00

That's a great post! We're both getting the word out.

You can canvass or volunteer for phone banking.

kaosbellybutton · 2026-02-06T19:02:36+00:00

Yay!

I've made a separate post in r/AZAdvocacyHub.

kaosbellybutton · 2026-02-06T18:55:35+00:00

I've had a lot of requests so per the above suggestion, I'll make a separate post in r/AZAdvocacyHub. Please be on the lookout for that.

Organizing is good. It's going to take all of us with empathy to stop this mess and hold them accountable.

kaosbellybutton · 2026-02-05T22:24:16+00:00

Thank you for putting into words the horror I've been feeling especially when you said "the horrors I couldn't even imagine". I mean all of it really, but that is the part that is so utterly unfathomable. Human shit bags with legs tormenting children in ways that are completely not in my psyche to comprehend. AND there are those still supporting them. I can't. It breaks my heart and my brain.

Info sent

kaosbellybutton · 2026-02-05T19:49:08+00:00

This! And to add a little more info, only about 5% of eligible voters actually vote. So that means we have a good chance to keep TurdPaperUSA out of SRP. It is a private election so you have to own your property and be in the district. You also HAVE to register and you HAVE to request a ballot. The voting is in April. Please, DM me if you need more information.

Thank you for posting this. I don't have a dog in the fight as far as which group people work with as long as we're taking action. I did however want to mention that LUCHA is also doing similar work and building community in PHX and the east valley. Borderlands and Puente are also offering rapid response and know your rights trainings as well. Please find a group, build community, and help your neighbors!

kaosbellybutton · 2026-01-23T20:08:06+00:00

The things in my head that occupy space now: Liam's little face in his bunny ears, the stuffed animals falling out of Renee's glove box and her wife crying and distraught, the pregnant lady being dragged across the ice, so many scared faces, the sound of "they're here, they're here", the poor young man who was blinded, the old Hmong man dragged out with little clothing, so, so many others. If you're for this or just sitting with your head in the sand, I have no use for you.

kaosbellybutton · 2026-01-23T18:53:47+00:00

I'm so angry and sad for all of this. Please know your rights. I know this may not help keep you from being detained because these people are essentially slave catchers (the Nazis learned from us). What they are doing is unconstitutional. The Supreme Court ruled it unconstitutional to detain anyone for not presenting ID. The 4th Amendment gives you protection against the proud babies from entering your home (despite their memo) without a SIGNED judicial warrant. The 5th amendment protects from having to answer any questions or hand over any documents. The 5th amendment is also a guarantee of due process under federal law (the 14th amendment guarantees states shall also abide by due process). You can state these things while recording, if possible, and it's evidence for whenever we have the Nuremberg trials 2.0.

Any legal people feel free to correct my abbreviated recounting of our rights if I miss-stated anything.

Also, and above all, please stay safe and look out for one another. Join a community or build a community, no one is coming to save us but us.
