more than meets the eye

Ace, 27, Barber, Puerto Rican & Chinese, FTM on testosterone since May 15, 2014. Currently located in NY . Once a Rugger always a Rugger. Rugby is more than a game to me, it's a way of life. I’m training to get back on the pitch! . Some days I don’t like me very much, I’m trying to change that.

Oh, nonsense. This is nothing compared to the twig of ‘93.

When I was a kid I laughed at this, but now as an adult who works in the public, I can assure you people are exactly like this.

Most important lesson I learned in the past year is, don’t let anyone turn you cruel. No matter how badly you wanna give the world a taste of its own bitter medicine. It’s never worth losing yourself over.

Kamilah Brock spent 8 days in a NY mental health facility because she owned a BMW 

Kamilah Brock, a former New York banker, has filled a suit against the city after she was detained for eight days in a mental health facility against her will. Brock says she was committed after trying to pick up her BMW, which skeptical police did not believe she owned. To add insult to injury, Brock was then charged a hefty sum by the hospital.

WHAT THE FUCK

[kittiesatemypronouns]

WTF!!!!!!

While this is a slightly older case (September 2015, the court ruled in her favor) I do want to use this as a chance to say something. And while this may be incredibly obvious to some, it may not be to everyone.

The odds are exceedingly slim that the officer in question genuinely believed that she was mentally ill. And even if she had, claiming to have a nicer car or better job than she really did would not make her a danger to herself. Nothing Brock said would justify having a person detained for even 72 hours, let alone 8 days.

These were eight days when she was forcefully medicated, held against her will, and likely denied any contact with the outside world. Aside from the unfair medical bills, that 8 days could have cost her her job, her car, relationships, and led to a lifetime of trauma.

This was a deliberate effort to destroy a black woman’s life. Because she looked too happy, too carefree and too successful, a group of police officers made the decision to ruin her in any way they could. And this is common.

Even setting aside their racist and misogynistic biases, police who arrest and harass black people over frivolous infractions are not doing so in good faith. By which I mean, it is not a case of their bias misinforming their decisions (such as when someone “fits the description” of being black). It is not a case of upholding the letter of the law more strictly with regards to black people (such as arrests for weed possession). While those are both serious issues in their own right, that’s not what’s happening in cases like these.

This is a case where the police made a conscious decision to do harm first and came up with the justification after the fact. And all too often, it works. As tragic as this story is, Brock is one of the lucky ones.

13 years ago today, Pepsi’s Super Bowl commercial starring Beyoncé, BritneySpears, Pink & Enrique Iglesias was premiered. #PepsiGladiators

[beyondthescatteredwalls-deactiv]

Damn these were simpler times

[allisonpregler]

so lemme break this down

-lord caesar iglesias, who does not sing in this musical commercial, has captured britney spears, pink, and beyonce to battle it out gladiator style -our trio decides instead of fighting, they will instead rock so hard that the audience forgets about their battle to the death -their musical prowess is so damn powerful they rock the foundation of the earth and overthrow caesar iglesias along with his stash of ancient roman pepsi -beyonce, britney spears, and pink drink pepsi while the audience cheers -enrique iglesias is eaten by a lion

This was and is still one of my favourites adverts ever

tomorrow’s eclipse is not just a restart, it’s a rebirth. these past few weeks have been preparing us for major endings and shifts. our perceptions of ourselves and our reality are changing. be prepared for your limiting beliefs to fall away. these changes might feel devastating or painful, but they’re necessary. the universe is ripping away everything that doesn’t serve us and is gifting us with a clean slate! don’t be fearful of this blood moon, be grateful!

We don’t appreciate enough our ancestors who figured out what we can and cannot eat. Like imagine trying lettuce for the first time and hoping you didn’t react like your sister who tried the poison ivy.
