What chance do we have? The question is "what choice." Run, hide, plead for mercy, scatter your forces. You give way to an enemy this evil with this much power and you condemn the galaxy to an eternity of submission. The time to fight is now! ROGUE ONE: A STAR WARS STORY 2016 | dir. Gareth Edwards

Tonight I prayed for...

My coworker, C. I won't know how things are going for her until Monday, I'm sure, but my thoughts and prayers (yes, that is an honest and wonderful thing) are with her. I offered my daily rosary to her and her family and I thought about her during mass (she is also Catholic and goes to my church).

I just watched an episode of Andor and did my nails, and am planning on watching an episode of Bridgerton before a relatively early bedtime. I'm taking Jackson hiking in the morning. It's supposed to be 100 again tomorrow, but we're going to a canyon early in the morning so we should be able to stay cool for a few hours. Obviously, I'm more worried about him than me as I enjoy the heat, but it's not good for dogs.

Did you see the person on twit/X get cancelled for commenting on a dead dove fic? He enjoyed the fic, left a nice comment, someone screenshotted it and exposed him. Now he made a formal apology when I personally think that there wasn’t a problem with it. And here’s my 2 cents, the person who originally screenshoted it, how did they find the fic? Just another case of purity culture.

Im curious as to what your opinion is?

I didn’t see anything about it. but people harassing other people over fictional characters in order to feel morally superior about themselves is nothing new. it’s all childish, sad and pathetic of them. they’re just a bunch of bullies who think they’ve found a morally correct excuse to harass others.

Doug Ford said it "a miracle nobody died" lmao like people will praise everything and everyone else before admitting that we did what we always do and took care of our own. It wasn't a miracle. It was indigenous communities helping each other. It's the people who aren't slashing budgets and telling us it's time to stop holding our hands out despite giving us nothing and passing a bill to give us even less who are opening their doors and letting us in.

Before taking off for the Assembly of Nations, officials told Chief Paavola that there was nothing to worry about, and there was no immediate danger, insisting the smoke residents were seeing came from a smoldering fire farther away.

If it wasn't for someone else alerting the community of the danger, they never would have known. No one called. No one came. The people of Collins had 40 minutes to escape before the fire would have consumed them. This isn't a miracle. It's an utter failing of the people in charge do the bare fucking minimum of their job requirements and keep people safe and informed. We have satellite imaging of the wildfires. We have over 8 different sites currently monitoring the fires. And they were told to stay put.

This isn't a miracle. It was Lyndon Paavola, Monty Frank, Scott Frank, Mitchell Huezo, Wayne Wastaken, Mikey and Ryan Wesley, Kyle MacLaurin, and Dean Goodwin making sure their community got out. It was them risking their lives to go back and get more people because the boats they had were too small. It was Chance Paavola, a 13-year-old boy, risking his own life to save his neighbours.

They were so close to the fire that they could feel the heat from the flames. They watched their community burn, and had to flee to the water because there was no other escape. It took 3 hours for Collins to burn.

If they listened to the officials and the people in power, an entire community of indigenous people would have burned to death. If they didn't have boats, they would have burned to death.

This isn't a miracle. It's an injustice. The government did nothing. They were content to let everyone die and now want to go on press tours down playing how miserably and catastrophically they failed another indigenous community on every single level.
