Perfect Match: MC (Kai) storyline. Damien is her main love interest. None of the photos above are my own.

Aujourd’hui j ai fait la connaissance de Abdelatif 12 ans, un esprit rieur dans un corps chétif Dans sa campagne, il va à l école primaire depuis 5 ans Il parcourt les kilomètres qui l en séparent en marchant Dans notre contexte, jusqu’ ici rien d exceptionnel Mais la suite est invraisemblable, une catastrophe réelle Abdelatif ne sait ni lire ni écrire, pas même son nom Ni compter jusqu à dix, sans parler de faire la plus simple des additions La logique voudrait qu’il soit un éternel redoublant Seulement il a réussit quelques classes, phénomène déconcertant Comment est ce possible, on se le demande Erreurs administratives à répétition ou tout simplement système éducatif immonde Que fais tu a l école, comment se passent tes journées Ils me mettent au dernier rang, sans jamais me parler Certains essayent malgré tout de le faire participer, sa sœur nous a raconté Mais son retard est abyssal et dissout rapidement leur volonté Notre stupeur à ce moment est sans égal Mais ce qui reste à venir sera le coup fatal Un des maitres de l’école, quand il est la, agit en suprême dictateur De ses chaussettes à sa voiture, les élèves sont les attitrés laveurs Indignation, colère, tristesse et horreur Inondent nos cœurs devant le crime de cet institueur Comment venir en aide à Abdelatif et ses semblables Dont les droits les plus fondamentaux sont piétinés de manière épouvantable Comment contrer un système complètement pourri et chaotique Dont les seuls soucis sont les chiffres officiels et les statistiques Je tiens à préciser que nous n’étions pas dans un patelin perdu Ni dans une région reculée à l accès ardu Mais à une dizaine de kilomètres de la ville ocre Ou sévit la bête sans la belle, ou les enfants sont dévorés par un ogre.....#AMYFY #dégoûté #encolère #ou_va_t_on #pbpm

PBPM: Operação "конной полиции в Москве"

No passado dia 20 de Setembro, após uma merecida pausa de dois meses, o grupo Polícia Bom, Polícia Mau (PBPM) voltou à carga com mais uma dose de literatura, café e bolo. O local escolhido para este evento foi a magnífica Fábrica Coffee Roasters. Além dos elementos habituais, esta sessão contou com a presença de um convidado especial, o ilustrador (e também escritor) Luís Melo. A qualidade e diversidade do seu portefólio pode ser verificada aqui.

Para não parecermos preguiçosos perante um convidado tão produtivo, nesta sessão quase todos contribuíram com escritos. Leonor Macedo trouxe magia e feiticeiros para a mesa com A Small Task; Rui Bastos optou por parasitas (ou seria múltiplas personalidades?) capazes de levar uma criança à loucura com Eu, tu e nós; por sua vez Júlia Pinheiro apresentou um princípio de história onde também a loucura desempenhava um papel fulcral em Louca ou Amália?; Elsa Leal explorou uma nova história passada no seu Portugal mágico com O Outro Lado e eu , Joel G. Gomes, brinquei com andróides e viagens no tempo em Alfama com À Hóme!.

Right-o, so I've been making a few changes to my blog and will be making a few more and i thought I'd summarize it:

I've created an about PB page finally. Nothing big, but I hope it can provide some clarity on from what background I speak and what I'm about.

I've taken the update to finally replace "Kvetchin'" in my header text. I'd been meaning to do that for far too long already. It's not my word, certainly not to be used by me that big and permanent. My apologies for all the time it's been there.

I'm going to start using "PBPM" ("Parrotbeak's personal messages") for... well, whatever I feel falls under that. There's a few older untagged posts I don't want to lose that'll be tagged that, so this won't be the first post in that tag. I'm thinking of maybe writing three post on the recent event for this tag, and hopefully after that, I'll have me back and I can close it. But if you don't want to see more on that or, you know, personal stuff, you can blacklist it. Just so you know.

[parrotbeak]

asides complaining, what do you like? what do you enjoy?

Uhm, I like my fandoms, I like writing (I’m not really good at fiction, but I think I can write a decent argument), I like doing wiki work, I like talking with my sister or just being in the same room with her, I like pampering my cat, I like music and reading (not gonna go through the entire list of what I specifically like), I like trains and train rides and watching trains come and go and train stations make me happy too, I like playing video games (Nintendo games, Adventure games, 2D platformers, and games that on average get a review score of 7/10 mostly), I like European comic books, I like biking, I like chemistry, I like watching liquids mix or drinks spill on carpets or anything like that because of how absurd it is that one moment everything is where it’s supposed to be and the next things have been brought together and undoing the connection, if possible at all, takes immensely more effort than connecting it, I like cooking and cleaning up the kitchen, I like food, I like my morning paper rounds because I get to see the world before it wakes up and especially when it’s dark outside I feel like I own the town, I like the small moments of the day I can separate myself from the crowds and maybe prevent light from reaching my eyes and just having a moment of peace, I like getting a new pair of pants that fit perfectly, I like taking showers - especially with no lights turned on, I like being of use to the people around me, I like history (particularly how my family line fits into the bigger picture of migrations), I like etymology, I like fitness (but I don’t do it often because accessibility limitations), and I like the feeling of movement.

Probably a lot more, but this should satisfy the purpose of your question.

So for anyone who needs a quick updating on the recent event, I'm not gonna summarize because that leads to bias. And as I still have no clue what happened myself, I'm definitely not the person to pick what is important and what is not. So, here's just all the bits for people to read through.

(EDIT: This was supposed to be without commentary, but I found a few bits needed clarification.)

PB's response to PPV #1

PB's response to PPV #2

PB's response to MVM (MVM responded, but deleted soon afterwards. I only saw the notification on my dashboard.)

Anon in between

PB's response to MTTO

PB's response to JTB

PB's response to ST #1

PB's response to ST #2

PB's response to ST #3

ST's response that I never replied to

ST in the db tag #1 (Every single set of eight hours it's night time somewhere on this planet. I slept. Sleeping hours are not experienced hours.)

ST in the db tag #2 (My reply they couldn't read because I'd been blocked already.)

Anon on my dash #1 (ie, not placed in the db tag)

Anon on my dash #2 (following on this, again not placed in the db tag)

PS in the db tag #1 

ST's response to PS (note that at this time he had us both blocked so communication could not follow. That's why we declined to read it. As of this writing, I do not know what this response entails, just that it exists.)

PS in the db tag #2 (ST responded to that too, but again, I don't know what he said because I don't engage in one-sided opportunities.)

PB in the db tag

PPV in the db tag (If you wonder where the provocation to this post is, I am just as clueless as you are. I haven't talked with him since my second reply.)

And at this point, it's now and I shouldn't have to chase down more links.

Right, so there's at least two people now who've in the not-so-distant past expressed admiration for me. And I mean, that's nice and all, but not exactly what I ever went for or how I looked at it. For these people to now explicitly frame me as a not-friend, it kinda stings. It's been a while since I've felt this objectified.

So, yeah, you two. I won't say your names since I know you'll see this and you know who you are, but I need you to unfollow me. Preferably even put me on ignore to decrease the chance you'll even read, like, or reblog from me again. Don't contact me about this - distance is the least of any remaining favors you can do me.

I'm willing to surround myself with people. Not with slime. Not with hypocrits and nepotists whose critical thinking skills miraculously disappear when they have to make an actual choice. Not with cowards who act like this'll all blow over if they just stay low. Not with backstabbers who think it's a-okay to support anyone being bullied out of a tag they've regularly defended. Not with word-thieves and their cheerleaders (there's a goddamn reason I never take another's words without linking to the source. Or did you think I find putting links in my posts just fancy? I mean, yeah sure, but that's not the reason.) And not with scum who, if I am to believe ST's words, prefer to talk about me behind my back than to me despite that I do think I've got something of a record of not being unreasonable.

Note I said "at least two people". I can't figure it all out for the rest of my followers who also hang in the doll bitches crowd, so figure out yourself what your values are and what they're worth when under pressure. Unfollow me when any of the above applies to you.

P.S., If you want someone to stop commenting, the basic way to do it is to, you know, tell them. One sentence. Maybe two if you're gonna add a reason. Writing half a page that includes questions makes it seem like you want to engage and keep talking.
