i-D magazine: What reactions did you get to your Met Gala ‘Gun Control’ statement?

Abbey: A vast mix. My favourite was “she’s a stupid slut who was just looking for an excuse to take her clothes off.” They were spot on

This editorial from july 2000 is so oddly quarantine inspired.

[nemesissy-vent]

I think people forget that late-90s / early 2000s aesthetic tendencies had a sharp tang of Chilly, Sterile, Alienated And Sad- like, I think we think of Y2K Aesthetics as cheerfully retro-futuristic now, but lots of people saw them as symptomatic of something terrible and austere and that rhymes interestingly with being stuck in your fucking house with only the internet and an explosion of cozy interests for company / to fend off the terrible lonely, numb feeling

I was actually thinking a bit about this a few months ago, because I kept coming back to Y2K music in this vein when I was really in my quarantine feelings- think Radiohead were kind of *the guys* doing this but I also think of Blur’s The Great Escape as being an album mostly about chilly alienation, and Country House / He Thought of Cars are both Combination Quarantine-Apocalypse Bops

I recommend constructing a detailed image of who you want to be and how you want your life to be, down to all the details (love-life, work, money, your home, day to day life, etc). Flesh it out fully and let your heart and desires govern the whole thing, don’t hold back at all, create your ideal life. And everyday think about it - and feel it. Feel it as if your life is already that way. And make all your decisions according to its ultimate fulfillment. Get in touch with your values, what’s really important to you, and let them guide you.

[yourfavwolf]

girl pls how do you manifest? journaling? or just? thank you.

i write 2 different journals everyday one is for my feelings realizations and then my other one is for kinda manifestation/gratitude. I wrote “how are you going to make the most of today” on top of every page and right bellow I have B.M.S (body/mind/soul) then I explain to myself how I’m going to do that and for each category

At the beginning of the year I layed out all my goals/visualizations that I have for my future and what tasks I would be doing then and then I wrote down what I was doing daily now.

And now I just kinda make myself aware everyday on how to approach my goals and keep it always in mind. On the other side of the page I have my quick manifestation/gratitude page where I list:

“Today I’m greatful for”

“Today I will be” (and just sort of manifest how I want to feel, things I usually write are smart, kinda, loving, forgiving, healthy etc.

“Today I will” and just kinda list all my tasks it makes me feel like I’m actually also working towards my goals apart from manifesting them.

And then lastly I have “manifestation” where I usually write the same thing everyday and I write it as if it’s happening!

I also do manifestation moon rituals when the moon is full and thank the universe/god for everything I’m greatful and it honestly has given me everything I asked for most times so fast that it’s scary

As someone who has read Carry On and also sometimes makes their own perfumes/body sprays/lotions, I feel like I have to share with you all the fact that bergamot and cedar are both antidepressants (specifically, bergamot = energizer, cedar = mood stabilizer).

Also, bergamot, being a citrus, is phototoxic. Meaning you shouldn’t wear a lot of it if you plan on going out into the sun. 

It will burn you.

I have no idea if all this was intentional, but it’s hilarious.

[rainbowrowell]

This was NOT intentional! But it’s SO interesting.

I chose bergamot and cedar because I love both these scents, and because they both feel clean and sort of energizing to me.

I associate cedar with old things, with complexity, with preservation. So it seemed like a good smell for Baz, who’s sort of timeless and stuck between life and death.

These dudes are fucking legit.  They don’t just show up one day in court, either, they actually make friends with the kids and let them know they have a support system and that there are people in the world who care about them and will always have their back.  And less important, but also cool, is that the few times a couple of them have come into my cafe, they’ve been super friendly and polite and when I told one of the guys that I noticed his Bikers Against Child Abuse patch and wanted him to know how awesome I thought he was because of it, he got kind of shy and blushed and said, “The kids are the awesome ones, we just let them know they’re allowed to be brave.”

[bebinn]

The source is long, but so, so good. These men and women are available in 36 states, 24 hours a day to stand guard at home, in court, at school, even if the child has a nightmare. Many of them are survivors of childhood abuse as well, and know what it’s like to feel scared and alone.

In court that day, the judge asked the boy, “Are you afraid?” No, the boy said.

Pipes says the judge seemed surprised, and asked, “Why not?”

The boy glanced at Pipes and the other bikers sitting in the front row, two more standing on each side of the courtroom door, and told the judge, “Because my friends are scarier than he is.”

[clatterbane]

Bikers Against Child Abuse was founded in 1995 by a Native American child psychologist whose ride name is Chief, when he came across a young boy who had been subjected to extreme abuse and was too afraid to leave his house. He called the boy to reach out to him, but the only thing that seemed to interest the child was Chief’s bike. Soon, some 20 bikers went to the boy’s neighborhood and were able to draw him out of his house for the first time in weeks.

Chief’s thesis was that a child who has been abused by an adult can benefit psychologically from the presence of even more intimidating adults that they know are on their side. “When we tell a child they don’t have to be afraid, they believe us,” Arizona biker Pipes told azcentral.com. “When we tell them we will be there for them, they believe us.” ( Article)

More about BACA, from their site

[uriesays]

My parents are a part of this organization and they are metal af

They go on runs to protect the child if they feel even the slightest threatened no matter where. If the child needs them to go on vacation with them, they do. Bikers come from across the nation to watch over and take shifts for these kids. And the best part is once you’re adopted into this family as a BACA kid, you’re always one. Even when you’re 40 and the perp gets released from jail, they’ll come meet with you and find your best options for avoiding the person and maintaining the life you’ve built for yourself. Once a BACA child, always a BACA child. In Florida, there’s 100% rate for identifying the perp based on the child’s testimony. Why? Because BACA stands with the child and supports the child so they feel comfortable enough to point out their attacker.

What’s better than a badass biker gang being on your side???

[kikithegirl]

NATIVE AMERICAN CHILD PSYCHOLOGIST WHO IS A BIKER AND NAMED HIMSELF CHIEF HELL YES I’M HERE FOR THAT AND BIKERS BEING BAD ASS TO PROTECT KIDS. HELL YEAH.

[birdungehrl]

it’s back! I will always reblog BACA

[your-uncle-dave]

Damn good people.

[rowsdower-saves-us]

I know they wouldn’t consider themselves such, but these people are freaking heroes and the world is a better place because of them. 

[racethewind10]

Hey folks, it talks about this in the article but its not mentioned in this post, BACA is a 501 © (3) charity that depends in part on donations to help pay for stuff like gas for their bikes. If you want to help, consider donating. 

[drgaellon]

@copperbadge You like posting about heroes, Sam. Seems like this would be up your alley.

[copperbadge]

I love these folks! I’ve reblogged them before but it’s wonderful to see the donation information has been added. 

[galaxy-of-stories]

Always reblog. Keep doing what you’re doing y'all.

Guys? This post changed my life. I saw this post. Forever ago. And thought it was only in america… and wished desperately that they could help me. But then I saw it again, during a bad episode, and checked their site. They aren’t just in the USA

They’re in Canada as well and probably other countries. I met and talked with a native guy who runs the place near me. His name is Shaman. I got in, and I’m considered a BACA child now. Despite being 17, turning 18 when I talked to them. They spent time with me when my abuser was over, they gave me therapy resources. They give you something called a ‘level 1′ where they go to your house with as many bikers as they can, i shit you not a solid 20-40 bikers came from even out of province, and met me. I got to choose my biker name and I got a vest with patches on it and my name on it. They all hugged a Teddybear before giving it to me, and told me if I ever felt the BACA bear was running out of love, to give them a call and they’d refill it for me, and then I got a ride on one of their bikes. Just a day or so ago I went to an annual party with them and they we ate food one of them cooked and had a lot of laughs. 

I’ve never felt as loved as I did being a part of the BACA family. They also gave me dog tags with the names, and phone numbers of my 2 workers.  So I can call them whenever I feel scared. 

BACA is an absolutely wonderful group that will do everything in it’s power to help any child whos been abused. 

And it doesn’t end when you’re 18 either. As long as you get in contact/get your level 1 before you’re 18? you’re ALWAYS a BACA kid. I’m 18 now and they still invite me to parties, ask me if I’m okay, and are there for me. They’re still trying to find me resources for therapy. 

BACA has changed my fucking life. 

I hope you all can read this, and reblog it knowing from someone who fucking been with them, that they are absolutely amazing.

If I ever don’t reblog this, it’s because I am physically being restrained against my will.

a crash crash course on the golden age of hollywood

to state the obvious, this is not meant to be a be all end all guide. it’s just a start for people who wanna know more about some of the essentials of the era. there’s plenty of people and movies i didn’t include but at least now you can listen to vogue and understand all the references.

[female-twink-deactivated2021032]

Also instead of “problem behaviour” call it “distressed behaviour” for a more accurate picture of what the person is actually facing

[dreadfaeriejack]

I can’t reblog this enough, I will do it every damn time I see it from now to death.

[themostineptthateverstepped]

When someone frames your mental health issues as attention seeking behavior, problem behavior, or any other negatively-coded context, it creates an environment that makes you feel guilty, wrong, and selfish for struggling with things outside of your control. As a result, serious issues are allowed to arise in the absence of support.
