while protestors are out on the streets asking justice for breonna taylor's murder, louisville law enforcement has senselessly murdered another black man, david mcatee. he was the owner of a bbq restaurant and he was literally at the protests feeding people when he was killed after law enforcement blindly shot into a crowd!! his family says he was shot while trying to protect his niece!! he was known to feed police officers for free!! he was a good, kind man! say his name!!

you can sign this petition asking the lousiville mayor to take appropriate action in identifying and arresting the killer, to bring david and his family justice.

What just happened on CNN? Im at work and so wasn’t somewhere I could watch

Sure I’ll sum up.

So there was a very good peaceful protest by…. Lafayette Park? Right outside the White House. They were chanting, they had multiple reporters in the crowd, it was fucking CHILL, people were waiting for Trump to do a speech in the Rose Garden.

Then, out of nowhere, truly NOWHERE, the cops closed in from three directions and threw gas into the crowd. They used rubber bullets on the crowd IMMEDIATELY. One dude told the reporter “They don’t care about news, move.” They drove out the totally fucking peaceful, pre-curfew protestors.

They moved them all out, and Trump started speaking, and you could hear the fucking gas going off over his speech. CNN fucking did a splitscreen to show the peopple being shoved back as the motherfucker stood up there and said he would protect our rights and would mobilize the military against people.

Then back to the reporters, and everyone was forced further and further away. One woman on a bike told the reporter “They are getting the water cannons ready, you wanna move.”

TURNS OUT.

ALL OF THIS.

WAS BECAUSE TRUMP WANTED A PHOTO OP AT THE CHURCH ACROSS THE STREET. HE WANTED THEM OUT OF THE WAY SO HE COULD STAND WITH A BIBLE IN FRONT OF A CHURCH.

Even CNN is calling him a dictator, at 7PM.

Then the Illinois governor came out and called him a racist, xenophobic, misogynistic failure.

ETA: OH AND AFTER THE FACT one of the CNN ppl said that the cops claimed they gave three warnings to the crowd to disperse. There were reporters literally in the crowd, and didn’t mention hearing anything along those lines and where as shocked as anyone when the crowd was forced to move. So they’re fucking lying.

[haemoerotic]

The Bishop whose church he stood in front of issued a statement, this is real:

The President just used a Bible and one of the churches of my diocese as a backdrop for a message antithetical to the teachings of Jesus and everything that our church stands for. To do so, he sanctioned the use of tear gas by police officers in riot gear to clear the church yard.

I am outraged.

The President did not pray when he came to St. John’s; nor did he acknowledge the agony and sacred worth of people of color in our nation who rightfully demand an end to 400 years of systemic racism and white supremacy in our country.

We in the Diocese of Washington follow Jesus in His Way of Love. We aspire to be people of peace and advocates of justice. In no way do we support the President’s incendiary response to a wounded, grieving nation. In faithfulness to our Savior who lived a life of non-violence and sacrificial love, we align ourselves with those seeking justice for the death of George Floyd and countless others through the sacred act of peaceful protest.

Maybe all the twentysomethings are obsessed with cartoons because all the “adult” shows show the same traumas, frustrations, and anxieties we already have to deal with 24/7.

Sometimes you just wanna watch a princess of power or a magical alien child do fancy magic stuff in a lower-stakes world where you can be reasonably sure you won’t be subjected to depictions of extreme violence, gore, assault, and sex without warning, ya dig?

[raeseddon]

It’s true and you should say it

[sith-shenanigans]

so much adult media likes to pretend hopelessness and pessimism and cynicism are something profound instead of the same depressing nonsense that you can find self-righteous assholes spouting on any given corner of the internet

society acts like we’re supposed to outgrow hope somewhere between sixteen and twenty-two and it’s absolute bullshit

being an adult isn’t about giving up

hold on, let me repeat that

just in case y'all didn’t hear me in the back

being an adult isn’t about giving up

And when you lose somebody, you lose them not only when you lose them but each time when you are reminded of them, when memories of them flash across your mind in broad daylight, when you yearn for their presence. When you lose somebody, you lose them not only once, but over and over again for the rest of your life.

The version of you right now is deserving of love. Not you two years ago when you had more of your shit together, or the five years later version where you’ll surely be thriving. The version of you right now. The one that might just be okay, or is really struggling, or is bored and unproductive. That version deserves love. Having trouble accepting this is fine, but actively denying it is not. Your value is intrinsic, and finding confidence in that is mandatory.

OH! AND ASK FUCKING QUESTIONS! Try new vegetables you never heard of, ask how to use the weights at the gym. Most of the time the people that work at such places are waiting eagerly for a newb like you to ask them. Don’t feel embarrassed, empower yourself! ;)

KPOP Merchandise Sale

Hello friends~

I just wanted to update this post since the old pictures were no longer accurate. Thank you so much to everyone who has helped me out so far. There’s no way I would have been able to afford my bills this month without your kindness. For those that don’t know, my Mother has Multiple Scelorsis (small scars on the brain that affect mobility, mental functions, etc.),Short-term Memory Loss and Fibromyalgia (a long-term chronic pain condition). I’ve been her care-giver for as long as I can remember, however her symptoms had deteriorated to a point that she needed to be in care facility. After 4 years on a wait-list, she finally got in to a home outside of town on April 15th, which I am so thankful for! The transition has been bumpy but she’s settling in well away from home. Unfortunately, that home is one that I’m not allowed to continue living in because it’s an accessibility unit. I’ve been notified that I have until June 30th to find a new place to live (though she may extend it if I can’t find a place, which is very kind). Currently, since I was caring for my Mother, I only work part-time (average 4 hours a week right now because hours are bad) and have very little to get by on. I start a new full-time job in my field in late June, however I still need to afford to put down first and last months rent on an apartment, and pay the bills where I live now for the next couple months, all without my Mother’s income that we depended on before. My Father passed away 4 years ago suddenly from cancer (we were told he had a year to live, and sadly only survived just under 2 months), so I have very little family to rely on. I decided to do what I could for myself, so I’m selling my beautiful merchandise collection.

If you could please help me out, even by just reblogging this, I would be incredibly grateful! Google docs with available merch is here:

EXO Merch –> here BIGBANG collection –> here Misc albums –> here

And since I’ve been asked several times but was avoiding it, if you’re not interested in merch but are able to donate, I will dedicate my life to sending you nothing but love and happy vibes, which I’d do it anyways but I have nothing else to offer sadly :( I have a very hard time asking for help but desperate times call for desperate measures:

pp.me –> here

Please message me about deals or other offers! I’m open to negotiating.

Shipping will vary between countries (I live in Canada), but the max I will charge is $20 CAD (roughly $15 US) depending on how heavy the item is.

Items will go on hold for 72 hours until payment is received, and will be relisted if not paid for within that time.

Feel free to message me if you need photos!

[xiudaengerous-deactivated201910]

I now have to pay 25% of the fee for a wheel chair for my mom and $100 for the rental they never informed me of, so if you could please reblog that would be greatly appreciated!
