Okay seriously. Reblog if you're OLDER than 11.
why is it that not more than 1/20 of Tumblr havenāt reblogged this
I may have already reblogged this once, but Iām doing it again just to be safe
14 here. But like why does this need to be reblogged- WHY DO I REBLOG THINGS-
The boot lickers really like to correct two points:
Breonna Taylor was not sleep when she was shot: true, she was awoken by the battering ram used to crash her door in at 1am.
Police didn't shoot first: also true. Kenneth shot an officer in the leg when they entered and, naturally, because they're all scared incompetent knobs, they responded in a hail of bullets, eight of which entered Breonna.
The cops claim to have knocked and announced themselves. This is a lie. No neighbors heard them announce themselves. Furthermore, they obtained a no-knock warrant specifically for the sole purpose of carrying out a drug raid by catching a drug dealer off guard and forcibly entering without warning (such as a knock and announcement). They wanted that specific warrant so much they misrepresented evidence to a judge to get it. So they did all that and got a warrant saying they did not have to knock or announce themselves and then just went on ahead and did it anyway? Cause they're just so polite?
They were also in civilian clothing and either not wearing body cams or had them turned off. So I'm not even sure how their word was just taken on all that.
They have indicted ONE cop for something that had nothing to do with her murder, it was for endangering the lives of OTHER residents by opening fire inside of an apartment complex.
A reminder that the person they were looking for, Breonna's ex-boyfriend, was already in custody at the time they murdered her.
A reminder that the mail investigator or whoever they claimed to get a tip from to get the warrant said they lied.
A reminder that the cops submitted an almost blank report with blatant lies, including that Breonna was not injured.
A reminder the prosecution tried to get Breonna's ex-boyfriend to implicate her in his crimes in April, after they had killed her.
A reminder that because of Breonna's case, no-knock warrants are no longer allowed in Louisville (but they knocked right?)
A reminder that the city settled out of court for $12M in the wrongful death suit, so they possibly feared losing in court and paying more.
Actually zoom school is handing bad teachers who used to have complete control over their classrooms control over students in their homes. No ones really said what they can and cant do/say to the students, the bad teachers are comfortable with being a commanding voice, and are ready to abuse that. There are teachers that are good and do try to make this experience as gentle but educational as possible. And there are teachers that will be ābulldozersā to your child, as they are in the classroom. Ive seen people talk about worse things going on both in and out of the classroom. Parents need to document these interactions and be ready to report them to the principal. Documentation is everything. HOW TO DOCUMENT: in a notebook/calendar, write down what the teacher says, what the student does, the date, and the time. Look up your local laws for recording with a camera verses a voice recorder, and depending upon what the law says you can use a recording. When the teacher has conferences, document what was said to you, what main points they hit, what you said, and what she said/did in response. When you talk to the teacher or principal, DOCUMENT THAT TOO. If they do nothing, youll want evidence of that for the future if you wish to climb the chain of command in finding justice for your kid.
The one good thing about remote school like this, is that a LOT of bad teachers are exposing their shittiness to kids' parents. Too many people become teachers in order to be petty dictators over a bunch of children, and as an educator, that fact makes me FURIOUS. My job is to instruct and guide, not to lord it over a bunch of people who have less power than I do. That is literally bullying.

ALWAYS REBLOG WHEN YOU SEE SOMETHING LIKE THIS PLEASE; ITS SO MUCH MORE THAN IMPORTANT TO PEOPLE. IT MEANS EVERYTHING TO SOMEBODY AND EVEN THOUGH YOU MIGHT NOT SEE THIS IN THE SAME LIGHT, SOMEONE MIGHT. INFACT YOU REBLOGGING THIS COULD STOP SOMEONE TAKING THEIR LIFE TONIGHT.
Seriously thank you.
I will always reblog this.
This may not fit with my usual stuff but this is important. To everyone out there: you are loved.
I was looking through my old posts and found this. As someone whose really had it rough these past few weeks I think itās important to share this for everyone.
Please be safe, and know that you are loved ā¤ļø
[ID: A series of tweets by @/Jane Prester that read,
āIf you are trapped inside by the smoke and watching your air quality steadily decline- here is somethung you can do right now to make things slightly better.
Get every spare pot/pan/container/bucket you have and fill them halfway with water, place these everywhere in your house you have the space to safely do so. The idea is to create as much watery surface area as possible- the water will gradually absorb smoke particles and clean the air. Itās small, but if you have enough surface area it can make a *very* meaningful difference over 2-3 hours.
Another thing you can do is run a hot shower until your bathtub is 1/2 filled up- leave the batroom door open. The rush of humidity into your living space will knock many of the smoke particles down onto the floor. (Do this every few hours as needed as needed).
I know how it looks but this set up has kept the air quality in my bedroom basically normal for the past 3 days. Itās an improvised solution- but itās one that works surprisingly well and doesnāt require much in the way of materials.ā
The end of the series of tweets is followed by a picture of many containers of water and a fan, domonstrating the set up described. /END ID]
chipped
Man, this is such a perfect analogy. āChippedāā¦ Just damaged enough for it to show at times, but not nearly broken enough to warrant fixing. And so often does the chipped cup turn itself to show its undamaged side.
someone put it in words

@spanish speakers te amo feels weird to say??????
TE AMO! IS TOO! INTIMATE!! maybe if you say it quickly and in a jokey way its ok but in a serious talk??? it feels too much!!!!!!!
āi love youā is NOTHING compared to te amo. i love you feels like a kiss on the check and te amo feels like fucking marriage.Ā
#I have like a whole thing on saying te amo to anyone
YEA. i had a relationship with someone and she dropped theĀ āte amoā super quicky and i was likeā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦āthats ok, thank you, but im gonna be honest w youā¦.iām not saying te amo until i really feel itā thats how serious it is.Ā
te amo IS very serious, very deep, very intimate. when you want to tell someone that you love them without it being massive, the term you want isĀ te quiero
cant believe no one had contributed this
Same for German imho?!??? Ich liebe dich is THE confession. You donāt drop it in a joking way.
It might just be me, but I wouldnāt randomly pepper ŠÆ Š»ŃŠ±Š»Ń ŃŠµŠ±Ń into conversation either. It feelsā¦ too much.
Maybe it is the English one that is weird
I tell my close friends āI love youā all the time. I think Itās different if I were to say āIām in love with youā.
In these non-English languages, do parents not tell their childrenĀ āI love you?ā Or is it only romantic?
Oh, Iām monolingual but I know a bit about this one! :D
So, in a lot of languages, there are multiple verbs that mean, āto love,ā which are each situational, while, in English, we derive the meaning through context
Like, āTe quiero,ā refers to love for friends and family, aka platonic love, while , āTe amo,ā or, āAi shiteru,ā in Japanese, is so achingly tender and romantic that you might as well write the other person a receipt for your heart, because itās theirs now
At some point, English did have multiple verbs for, āto love,ā but eventually English speakers decided, āto hell with it, I only want 1 broad term for these big mushy feelings,ā because we hate having multiple words for things almost as much as we hate punctuation
TL;DR: cultures that are non-English speaking do tell their kids they love them, they just have multiple words that mean, āTo love,ā and English is the odd man out because it got tired of that and went
man, as an american, I will say āI love youā if you pick me up a snack when you pop down to the store
iĀ root for all of my mutuals even if we donāt talk āā i see u an hope ur doin well an hope urĀ achieving ur goals ššš
do not fix your dark circles let the world know youre tired of its shit and ready to kill a man
writing an autistic character when you are not autistic - a masterpost
completely double spaced version on google docs here ā this post is more blocky for the sake of peopleās dashboards, but still long so people will be less likely to glaze over it. my apologies if that makes it hard to read
things to look for and avoid in an autistic character
ā¢ symptoms only manifesting as ānonverbal and rockingā ā¢ super smart / living calculator ā¢ super dumb / doesnāt understand anything ā¢ all the symptoms you can come up with for them are āawkwardā and āhas special interest(s)ā (please do more research) ā¢ trains, technology, and/or math as special interests ā¢ acting like a child ā¢ getting treated like a baby ā¢ unreasonably cruel and uncaring about othersā reactions to them being cruel ā¢ if theyāre comparable to sheldon from the big bang theory, start over ā¢ animal comparisons ā¢ a lack of feelings ā¢ please no stories about what itās like to be autistic told by allistics
the right way to write an autistic person
ā¢ lots of symptoms, including secondary ones not included on a general diagnosis requirement list (hereās a list i rather like that was made by an autistic person ā their blog is also a good resource) ā¢ having a good amount of general knowledge and actually talking about it (i cannot believe that i have to say this) ā¢ talking about things outside of special interests (againā¦. come onā¦ā¦ā¦.) (special interests are usually the default things our brains go to when theres no stimulation or we want to entertain ourselves ā it isnāt literally all we think or talk about ever. if a conversation has no connections to a special interest, reconsider having your autistic character bring it up in a context that is not an introduction.) ā¢ explicitly expressed to be capable of attraction and romantic feelings ā if your character is an adult, add sexual feelings to this point ā¢ capable of general functioning, just with a disability that makes it more difficult ā not a walking disability (ā¦.sigh) ā¢ a wide amount of feelings and emotional turmoil (but perhaps only being able to express it in limited ways) ā¢ weāre people ā¢ just people whose brains are wired differently
things to avoid in research for an autistic character
ā¢ autism moms / autism blogs and websites not run by autistic people ā¢ any affiliation with autism $peaks means you should walk away and never look back ā¢ a scientist trying to create explanations for what autistic people do without actually asking / not mentioning asking autistic people ā¢ anything about a cure for autism ā¢ a person that āworked with autistic kidsā phrased in the same way as āworked with animalsā ā¢ talking about autistic people as if they are mysteries, are like animals, or are otherwise othered weirdos instead of people
things to look for in research for an autistic character
ā¢ actual autistic people talking about their experiences and symptoms ā¢ just stick to that and youāre good but itās hard to find sometimes ngl. just look for the above red flags
things i would personally like to see in an autistic character
ā¢ less easy to swallow sadness and more destructive anger. i would love to see a canonically autistic character who was frustrated easily by small things and had trouble communicating why ā¢ not a story about being autistic, a story that happens to have a character or characters who are autistic ā it isnāt pointed out or questioned, theyāre right at home with the rest of the cast and not othered (a la symmetra from overwatch) ā¢ intensive sensory issues / small sounds making large reactions ā¢ clear communications about not liking x sensory thing (for example being touched) ā¢ poor motor skills / clumsiness and not being laughed at for it ā¢ walking funny (body bent downwards, walking very fast, walking slowly, big strides, shuffling, stiffness, etc) Ā ā no one treats it as if itās funny or something totally strange ā¢ a big personality that has a presence so they canāt be cast aside (but feel free to have quiet characters too) ā if this was along with being nonverbal they would probably leap to being one of my favorite characters ever ā¢ a fear of asking for clarification on sarcasm or jokes because of past experiences and an arc about the character becoming more comfortable asking questions
>> if any fellow autistic people want to add something, feel free <<
allistics are encouraged to rb this
