this whole james gunn situation reminds me of a Controversial Event that happened in my town where like a coach at my school demoted two jocks from their co-captainship because they were being obstinate, right? and these jocks were really mad so they reported him for being racist against East Asian students, for withholding food and water as motivation for student athletes, and for making comments condoning locker room violence. the coach was suspended, and twenty-one past and current athletes who trained under him were interviewed about him, and all of the allegations were found to be true. the one that the most students said they had personally witnessed or experienced was the racism, with 17/21 students in an area with an only 7.5% Asian population confirming it. One of the kids who confirmed the coach had been racist towards him was literally valedictorian, not that that should matter, BUT.

this guy is beloved. his family owns a brunch place downtown, and he’s known for going out of his way to hook his fav athletes up with scholarships. the local news reported this as a case of shitty teenagers trying to ruin his reputation as revenge. people started putting signs up in their yards that said RESPECT OUR COACHES and I STAND WITH COACH PERRY despite not even knowing a) what he was accused of or b) that it was found to be true. Parents of kids who’d gotten free rides set up by him stood outside the school gathering signatures from parents and kids stuck in traffic, petitioning for him to be re-hired.  and he was!!! He’s back coaching kids again!!! Because people thought the fact that the original report was filed out of malice was more important than that the “victim” was a racist who endorses physical mistreatment of student athletes. Barely anybody in this town knows what the actual story was. And so now this man has suffered NO real consequences.  Anyway, what I’m saying is, it doesn’t matter that it was Trump supporters that got James Gunn fired. If trash wants to take each other out, that’s fine. That’s convenient. And people have got to stop with this whole ‘the enemy of my enemy is my friend’ bullshit. Everyone with a grain of common sense hates Trump, it doesn’t mean you have to stick up for terrible people, there are better things to do with your time.

My first day of class went incredibly well!! I read 5 chapters of my textbook and scheduled all my assignments in my outlook calendar I'm sooo excited for the rest of this class and school in general. I have a live class meeting tonight and I can't wait heehee

[dinosaurdoors]

a paper i thought was due at midnight tonight got pushed back another week but instead of taking advantage of this blessing and beginning the paper i played skyrim and applied for summer jobs. its a process.

theoretically a scheduled taxi being twenty minutes late and making me late for class should translate to me not tipping well but I have no idea whether it's my actual driver's fault and also I would feel too bad

I'm sorry I'm sure you get a bunch of asks but is it ok if I could get a hug too,,, i feel like such a failure in school and I failed AP chemistry last semester and my depression has gotten worse and I'm having a really hard time like pulling myself out of this grave I dug for myself,,,

i get that feel my dude.. ap courses are tough! but school is not an estimate of your worth, and its better to try and value your mental health more instead of pushing yourself too hard tryina get those Grades (tm)
