That Shit. HURTED

Taivan erasure makes no sense, unless you take into account the fact everyone is afraid when lesbians are actually butch. “oh look at Shauna’s flannel” this and “look at Jackie’s sweater vest” that. Van wore a little vest for Doomcoming and none of you were brave enough to say “thank you Van, you look so handsome Van” and make one million edits like the lord intended.

This made me unnecessarily emotional-

Why Don’t We Collide The Spaces That Divide Us

For writer wednesday @autumnleaves1991-blog @clydesducktape

Pairing: Harold Lauder x gender neutral reader

Warnings: fluffy fluff fluff, maybe a passing glimpse of angst

A/N: I don’t know what I’m doing. Just fucking canon because I want to. Also, hey look @peachyteague I did it! Title from Superposition by Young the Giant. Things I had to Google while writing this: how to spell melancholy, what a lifeguard hut was, what makes blood clot, how to spell misinterpreted.

You would think for all the traveling he’d done since the world went to shit, Harold wouldn’t look as pale as the sand he’s sitting on.

It’s on the West coast somewhere, he probably told you at some point exactly where but it doesn’t seem to matter to your mind like it does to his. That’s alright though, you trust Harold to lead you in the right direction like he trusts you to help him navigate whatever this is between you and him.

The afternoon sun isn’t quite high enough yet to be blinding and the thin clouds cast everything in a shade of monotone that whispers of melancholy while the chipped pale pink and blue paint of the lifeguard hut you stand on speaks a bit louder. Of something brighter.

This made me lose my fuckin shit-

Calls for Justice for Aurora’s Violinist Elijah McClain Grow

Elijah McClain was a kind and gentle 23 year old who worked as a massage therapist in Aurora, CO. On his lunch breaks from work, Elijah would go to the animal shelters and play violin for the animals because he thought that they were lonely in their cages and thought that the music would calm them. 

In August 2019, Elijah went to the gas station to buy some iced tea for himself and his cousins. Because he suffered from anemia he would often wear a ski/ runner mask over his face to stay warm. On his way home, the Aurora Police department were called to reports of a “suspicious man.” 

(Warning: for violent description) Elijah was apprehended by a group of three cops, despite committing NO crime and being unarmed. A struggle occurred, and he was held in a very dangerous carotid hold around his neck while he cried for help, cried out that he couldn’t breathe, cried out that he was nonviolent and couldn’t even kill a fly, and was repeatedly throwing up. Elijah weighed a mere 140 pounds. You can hear on the audio footage, an officer instructing another to move their body camera out of view.

While 3 Aurora Police Dept officers violently restrained him they called Aurora Fire Dept, who injected him with ketamine (a powerful drug used to tranquilize horses or in surgeries by a trained anesthesiologist and illegal to be administered by anyone else) even though he was already cuffed and calm.

He went into cardiac arrest , slipped into a coma, and his family was advised to take him off life support 6 days later.

The cops were transferred to another department but never received charges.

They dont tell us this shit in school, it's never talked about- how is this never talked about?? I never knew these quotes, I should've gotten more into the true history of MLK. Lately, so many interesting things about him have came out. White people so scarcely realize our privileges. We don't have to worry about simply getting out of our doors safely. I'm glad I'm learning more about black history, learning things I was never told, learning history that was ignored by society and the school systems. Now, I'm not blaming the school systems for my lack of knowledge. I hope that things really do start to change, that people become more educated on these things and people's ignorant views and opinions change as well.

Just need to have this on my dash so I can look at it

Sometimes I like to throw in a chest bump

It's late and I'm stoned so I read this as "I'm about to share my raisin brain muffin recipe" ...and honestly, that just makes sense for Tony.

I FOUND THIS BOOK IN MY STORE AND LAUGHED ABOUT IT FOR TOOOO FREUKING LONG SO I MADE A LIL EDIT-

I started photography a long while back when my dad gave me his old camera, I was about 13. I’ve kept it up and finally got a cord to edit them on my computer.

Need somewhere to post them so tumblr it is, this is just one album of when I was going through a fascination with eyes when I started photography (hasn’t really changed tbh just feels weird asking people “hey can I get a nice close up of them eyes”)
