Please sign this if you are a citizen of an eu country
Everyone(!) please also reblog this so we can reach as many EU citizens as possible!
Something incredible might be happening with this initiative. I’ve been keeping up with it over the course of the year it’s been up and slowly losing hope (50% of time elapsed and only 17% of signatures, etc.) but this week has gotten more signatures than the previous 11 months combined.
First to establish the rules: to get an official reply from the commission and possibly legislation, an initiative needs 1 million signatures within 1 year AND at least 7 different countries need to hit their threshold which is calculated based on population (idk how it’s calculated but a little more than 1 in 1000 adult citizens of the country need to sign to hit its threshold). This is to ensure that not all the support for an initiative comes from one or very few countries.
Ok so here’s the graph for signatures that the conversion therapy ban got over time according to the wayback machine:
The deadline is in 2 days as I write this and there’s a MASSIVE last minute push! 415,223 signatures to go still but the last update to the website added about 360,000 all at once. I think it might still be possible after all.
With that newest update we now also have hit 7 different country thresholds (up from 3 before this spike). Shoutouts to France, Finland, Spain, Belgium, Ireland, Netherlands, and Slovenia!
New OC, surprisingly. Her name’s Mama Ma Djinn. She’s the mother / queen of the common Djinn enemies you see in Secret Rings.
I’ll write a short bio for her later, but tl;dr she’s an evil spirit who doesn’t take crap from no one. She loves causing mischief for her own amusement and manipulates others.
I really like her personality and design so I might have her be able to jump out of the Arabian Nights book similar to Shahra. She is a powerful and wise spirit after all, she’s just not as strong as Erazor.
