Protesting works: don’t let it die

Reminder to not give up, you are bringing about change.

List of positives to come out of the recent protests as of June 4:

- George Floyd’s murderer charged with murder and manslaughter, then had charges increased, then the officers that watched it happen were charged with aiding and abetting

- Louisville police (Breonna Taylor’s murderers) department will now be under review from an outside agency, which will include review on training, bias-free policing and accountability. (Unfortunately her killers have still not faced charges yet as far as I could find.)

- Charges are to be dropped for Kenneth Walker

- Atlanta has announced plans to create a task force + public database to track police brutality in metro Atlanta area

- Minneapolis city council members are considering disbanding police force in favor of a “community-oriented, nonviolent public safety and outreach capacity”

- Colorado lawmakers have introduced an incredible police reform bill that includes body cam laws, repealing the “fleeing felon” statute, banning chokeholds, and more

Feel free to add more if you know of more!

MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING - 2019 Free Shakespeare in the Park

bemusedlybespectacled

I am not joking when I say that this version is Shakespeare as it was meant to be performed. It is fucking hilarious.

Just so you know, this is ONLY the UK Lush. Lush North America is a completely different company and is standing with Black Lives Matter.

Here are some screenshots of UK lush (left) and North American lush (right)

Don’t boycott lush North America, they’re trying.

Please know that we have different CEOs, Lush Uk and Lush North America are, for all intents and purposes, separate entities. We run separate campaigns and have separate charity funds. Lush North America has done a lot for the blm movement both in the recent movement and over the years. Please dont judge Lush North America for the faults of the Lush UK founder, he doesn't represent the opinions and values of the brand overall.

(...still consider buying from the list of black owned business bc supporting black business owners and small businesses is way more important than buying from big giant chains)

just don’t, you know, boycott lush n.a.

bc like? yes you can lmfao? it wasn't 'normal', is was normalized. ppl still suffered bc of bigotry, karen, just bc u wanna appreciate white author #10385 doesn't mean you can excuse it.

Big Warning

If you see a police car or a cop with a speaker looking thing on it, FUCKING RUN. It’s known as an LRAD (Long Range Acoustic Device), a device that, when activated, can permanently damage your hearing and cause serious harm. If you’re too close, you’ll be left in a lot of pain and squirming on the ground permanently deaf. Ear plugs do not work. Unless you have one of those shooting range headphones, you do not stand a chance against them. Again, if you see them pull up, RUN. This is what they look like.

Stay safe.

To the comments asking if this is real/can cause hearing loss. Not only is it real, but the NYPD lost a federal lawsuit in 2017 for using it on peaceful protestors, during the Black Lives Matter protests for Eric Garner in 2014, and caused them permanent damage. It was spotted again at protests this week.

A story in three pictures

Just in case anyone forgot or doesnt know the context:

- the “you guys are ugly inbreds” comment was faked/photoshopped, he never posted it. she believed it was real and attacked him

- the “misogynistic” comment was basically: it doesnt matter who Rey kisses one time (Kylo) - Finn’s still around and alive and they could get together…and have….(this is so shocking you guys) sex. John specifically used the phrase “lay the pipe.” Cheeky, sure.

Anyway the “view of a disproportional threat” JN clearly does know about is literally why these white women are up in arms about a dick joke. Still, to this day, posting in the tag. You dont have to like a dick joke but DAMN.
