You deserve a life that doesn’t constantly feel like something you have to recover from.

this clip unfortunately leaves out a crucial part of the video right after where kid behind the camera says to the school security something like, "I'm just trying to peacefully protest" to which brown hoodie kid yells in response, "YOU CAN PEACEFULLY GO FUCK YOURSELF!"

I usually hate seeing people being stiffed for their labor but I think it’s very funny ICE agents have not been getting their $50k sign on bonus, many are still waiting for their healthcare benefits to kick in and some are complaining they haven’t been getting their paychecks. You sold your soul to the Exploiting and Abusing People Agency and they started exploiting you too? Wow. Crazy.

so a very long time ago, my dad worked with an arson investigator

this guy was often one of the first people on the scene following a suspected arson, once emergency services had done what they needed to do. at times, there were also civilians on the periphery. often, they were freaking out, and understandably so; their home or workplace had just, quite literally, gone up in smoke

this investigator wouldn’t try to calm them down. he wouldn’t comfort them or be a shoulder to cry on.

instead, he’d walk up to the person most visibly losing their shit, hand them a fire extinguisher, and say “hey, can you keep an eye out for any other fires, and if you see one, can you put it out with this?”

of course, there was no actual risk of another fire. he wouldn’t be on the scene investigating if there was even a chance that the fire wasn’t completely put out. but the bystander didn’t need to know that

because that person, without fail, would immediately pull it together, take the fire extinguisher, and stand guard. they were, at least temporarily, calm enough for this investigator to do this job

my dad has told me the parable of the fire extinguisher a hundred times, and i think about it a lot. i think about what it says about people and crises. i think about what it says about the grounding power of having a purpose. and i think about the importance of letting someone help me through something, even if that help is just going to be another casserole to throw into the freezer, because useless or not, that fire extinguisher might be the only thing holding them together

Every bit of emergency response training I've ever done has a part that's like "check the bystanders, and if anyone looks like they're about to lose it, give them something to monitor. Tell them to keep an eye out for the ambulance or to make sure everyone else is staying clear of the hazard or something."

We don't talk enough about America's permanent ongoing saturation of "Stranger Danger" hysteria. It's like this country's whole social ecosystem teaches full grown adults to perceive an invisible army of rabid bogeymen lurking around every fucking corner. And it's everywhere. Absolutely fucking everywhere, top to bottom, from true crime media and urban legends like the old Poison Halloween Candy thing to our sadistically rage-fueled, revenge-based justice system and immigration policies. The NRA and the war on drugs and post 9/11 airport security and mccarthyism and satanic panic and just E V E R Y T H I N G in America, everything that has defined its history for 100+ years is constantly nothing but this fucking FEAR TERROR FEAR TERROR for positively no reason. None.

It's impressive how Neil Gaiman vanished from the internet. Wish Rowling would do the same.

[breelandwalker]

Also impressive how quickly and thoroughly people who previously loved his work have disowned it, stopped buying it, and stopped discussing it.

Wish Rowling's fans would do the same.

hey in case you didn't know trans inclusive terminology in healthcare is not about protecting peoples feelings, it's to stop insurance companies from going "well it says here that hysterectomies are a procedure performed on WOMEN and you keep insisting that you're a MAN so we do not in fact have to cover that have a nice day and eat shit"

[lyricwritesprose]

It also exists so that if, say, you have a situation with an underdeveloped, nearly nonexistent uterus but also an ovary that has a giant cyst, nobody can say, "You have an intersex condition so you are not technically a woman and we can't cover ovarian surgery for not-a-woman, happy peritonitis to you when that sucker explodes lol"

wild to think that sam was originally intended to be the main character of The West Wing when he doesn’t even crack the top five most interesting characters on the show. tell me more about the press secretary and her very hot, very problematic affair with one of the reporters in the white house press pool! tell me more about the nineteen-year-old orphan working crazy hours for bullshit pay while raising his younger sister and dating the president’s daughter! tell me more about the babygirl deputy chief of staff with survivor’s guilt who causes as many problems as he solves and reads his own RPF on the clock! tell me more about the first lady and the years of insane medical malpractice she’s committed trying to keep her husband’s disability invisible!!

and then sam is like “oughhh noooo i hooked up with someone i didn’t know was a sex worker, whatever shall i do” like oh my god dude can you grow upppppp there’s a raft carrying like seven hundred refugees that’s about to get hit by a hurricane and we gotta secretly orchestrate the assassination of another head of state before lunch
