Always always always thinking of this quote from Dear Senthuran by Akwaeke Emezi

[endeduponacrossroad]

“stop trying to protect me. stop looking at me like i’m some delicate fucking flower. i don’t want to be seen as fragile anymore. i don’t want to be seen as someone who needs protection. i’m not a modern day damsel in distress and your not a modern day knight. fuck off with this “you’re so cute” and “you’re so sweet”. i’m not a fucking 5 year old. i don’t want to be cute or sweet. i want to be hot and fierce. i want people to be scared ill hurt them not scared to hurt me. i want people to look at me and think “she’s a heartbreaker” not “her heart has been broken by every person she’s ever let into her life”. i don’t want to be sensitive anymore. i don’t want to jump at every loud noise and cry when someone yells. i’m tired. i’m tired of being me.”

remember how malia obama never tweeted incriminating emails of herself colluding with foreign powers. i miss that.

[ingtarwolf-deactivated20181002]

No she just smoked weed while being guarded by federal agents. But please. Keep acting like either side has a right to the moral high ground.

[algo-hermoso]

You’re really fucking stupid if you think a teenager smoking weed is comparable to a grown adult colluding with foreign powers to shift the election.

self undiagnosing myself. i no longer am.

[official-lucifers-child]

if i stay still enough, my brain might not see me

[endeduponacrossroad]

this will be the only place I will say this. just in case you go looking. just in case you care enough. I blocked you on everything. the only thing you still have access to do is text me. and thats because I care too much. if God forbid something horrible happened and you thought the only thing you could do was call me, I'd want you to be able to do that. however, I cannot continue to watch you live the life I should have been there for. you got engaged and I cried off and on for 3 days. all I wanted was for you to admit that some of the shit yall did was fucked up, but you just couldn't. I had to come to terms with the fact that I lost the kate i missed so dearly a long time ago. you are different now and I lost that fun girl I met at college a long time before this. I will not let myself hurt over someone who doesn't care enough to admit their own mistakes. so goodbye bunny, i will tell my children about you. about the aunt they should have had. about my best friend I lost and about how painful it was. most importantly I will tell them that I got through it and sometimes people grow apart no matter how hard you hold onto them. I love you bunny, so much.

If you would report an undocumented immigrant to ICE you would have reported me to the Nazis and I don’t fucking trust you

[prismatic-bell]

A note:

I live in a state where you “have to” report anyone you suspect of being undocumented (that wonderful hellhole of Arizona). Now in practice this law has fallen far short, thank goodness. But if you live in such a place and they start enforcing it, here is how you get around it:

Assume everyone who doesn’t speak English is visiting.

Never ask about their job, because if they tell you they work here then you know they’re not visiting. You see them a lot for several weeks or months? Hm. Someone in the family must be ill. That’s terribly tough. They always dress in old, ratty laborers’ clothes? I feel you, my dude, I can’t afford new clothes either, and my dad has the fashion sense of an aardvark, so sometimes it’s not even about “affording” them. They say they’ve been here for years? You must have misunderstood. Spanish isn’t your first language, after all. First and last name? It never came up, or you don’t recall–you meet a lot of people.

And then, if you’re asked: no, you haven’t seen anyone residing illegally in the United States. Just people visiting.

[date-a-jew-suggestions]

Very good very important addition

[appropriately-inappropriate]

Essentially, this is the civil society version of a work-to-rule strike.

Don’t do more than is expressly asked of you, and do what you are asked with such an intense attention to protocol that not asking you at all becomes more effective than even bothering.

In this case:

“Have you seen an illegal immigrant?”

“Could you describe an illegal immigrant, officer?”

*officer describes a person who is in the country without appropriate paperwork, or who has crossed the border illegally*

“No, sir, I haven’t seen any illegal immigrant.”

And this is correct. You have NOT seen an illegal immigrant, because you have no way of knowing if Jose Fulano is here legally or not. And since you can’t see his paperwork (or lack thereof), and did not personally see him cross the border illegally, you are only answering precisely the question asked.

[dancingwiththelostboys]

I’m not American, and I have like, three followers, but this is important.

[thelawfulchaotic]

So, I’m a lawyer, who deals with immigration though does not specialize in it. But here’s the thing(s): 

1) Even someone who’s working could be here on a migrant (or other sort of) visa (hey, there are a few thousand per year, and *someone*’s got to get them, right?) or could be waiting for their case to resolve in immigration court, after having come to America to join a born or naturalized American family member. 

2) Even people who are working improperly could have come into the country legally – and just overstayed their visa or be violating the conditions of their visa, and you have no idea what the annoying little regulations that govern that might be. 

3) If a law enforcement officer asks you about a neighbor/friend/etc., take this moment to remind them that, unlike them, you cannot ask a random person off the street for their ID and be entitled to a response. 

4) Even if someone has told you that they are undocumented, you still don’t know, do you? Humans lie all the time. How could you know for sure? You can’t, because they can’t prove that they have a lack of papers. Just because you haven’t seen papers doesn’t mean they don’t exist! 

5) Don’t ever talk to cops in general. Why are you talking to a cop? Stop that, as soon as it is safe and feasible.
