I was about to post some angsty ramble about my relationship and then realized that basically half of my (4) posts this year were that. Oops.

my children would be beautiful because I am and I bet my genes are really dominant and overbearing like me

My plan for 2k15: be more beautiful. It will be hard cause I’m already unbelievably beautiful, but ima still try.

Perhaps it's the overwhelming stress of finals or the two Avery White Rascals but sometimes I want to pretend I'm not me for a night and go out and construct different backstories every time I meet someone. "Hi my name is Julia! I graduated from Kutztown last year and am working at a publishing firm in Philly!" "Hi my name is Eliana and I'm just visiting from New York this weekend. The friend I'm visiting got lucky so I'm waiting for the appropriate time to sneak home and sleep on her couch." "Hi my name is Megan and I'm finishing my PhD in linguistics. I specialize In Petrarch, but I won't bore you, what are you drinking?" "Thanks for the cocktail, stranger, but I drink my whiskey straight." Alone, let's be honest.

Lol ok boyfriend. Sure.

A friend of mine shared this post on Twitter today about something one of her friend’s witnessed in NYC last night, and I felt it was important for us to post it on here - as a way of both getting the word out and seeing if anyone has any way of helping the situation (blogging, writing an article, knowledge of a missing person, etc.) Please share if you can - there has to be something we can do to help. It is possible to get in touch with the original source - please first email it to [email protected] and we will forward it to her. 

[neefitzalan]

I want to vomit. Bless these girls for making the effort to help.

[beefyrat-deactivated20190401]

Painfully average looking with a great sense of humor and always down to get drunk

[neefitzalan]

Gpoy? Basically.

[issarae]

Necessary.

[sistermaryfake]

I signed a change.org petition asking that this, among other necessary policies be made mandatory by federal law. FUCKING SIGN IT.

[christel-thoughts]

well would you look at that…

[edwardspoonhands]

I think this will happen…many police unions do not want it to happen, but I think it will happen. It will take a lot of time and a lot of fighting, but every moment of that fight is going to be worth it. 

Police unions will want more research, I think that’s important, and that research is being done now. While use of force and number of complaints are important statistics, so is overall crime rate (which unions will argue is adversely affected (because officers are thinking about how they’ll look on camera, not how to do their jobs) unless there are overwhelming data to counter that claim).

Also vitally important will be whether these save police departments money (which they probably will, in reduced complaints and simpler court cases.) 

And let’s not forget about privacy…if these videos are being uploaded to cloud-based evidence systems (which they probably will be) who is going to have access to them? What do you do with videos that have nothing to do with active cases? How long are videos stored for? How do you protect that data? Who decides when the cameras are on or off (civil rights orgs (and I) will argue that they must be always-on, police officers will say “what about when I’m peeing.”) And, if there’s an off switch, we can assume the off switch will get used at the exact time when we will have wanted it to be on.

As I say, this is coming, and it’s important, and it will be a force that runs counter to a lot of the bullshit police work that’s being done in some places in America…but the areas where it’s most vital will be the ones where it arrives last.

And, unfortunately, the federal government will never be able to make a blanket law because congress can’t even agree if flowers are pretty.

This is going to have to be a battle fought in every city in America individually, don’t let that drain your will. Yes, it would be better if it just happened tomorrow, but it will be worse if we all get lazy and say “it’s not happening the way I want so I don’t care if it happens at all.” 

Fuck that…we need do make it happen whatever way we can, even if it takes a long-ass time. 

Sincerely, An Old Guy
