Ladies! So Iâm sure weâve all heard of the absolutely horrifying thing going around about April 24th. Anyway, while a lot of us are really hoping that itâs just a hoax and isnât going to happen, we should still be taking precautions. So here are some things you should really remember if you have to go out by yourself on April 24th (or any day!) If you arenât able to grab a friend to take with you or something like that, keep the following in mind!
Stay in public areas. No matter where you are going that day, find a place that has a lot of people and stay near them.
Carry a long object such as an umbrella with you. Itâs been proven that if an attacker looking for victims sees someone carrying a long item they can defend themselves at a distance with, the attacker will ignore them and look for someone else.
Carry some kind of defense with you wherever you go. Pepper spray, wasp spray (which is much cheaper, shoots farther, and works just as well), a knife, whatever makes you feel safe, carry it. Another good idea would be a pointed object, like maybe a sharpened pencil. If youâre grabbed, stab for all you are worth at the eyes. Donât hesitate. Stab forcefully.
Wear dull colors and clothing that will not make you stand out in a crowd. DO NOT WEAR A HOODIE!!! An attacker can jerk the hood down over your face to disorient you, and, if the hoodie has drawstrings on it, they might even use it as a choking device. (A far-fetched idea, but it could happen).
Wear closed-toed shoes that have a sturdy structure. If youâre attacked and are trying to kick your attacker, you donât want to be wearing something like flip flops or sandals, because one, youâll end up hurting yourself kicking with your bare feet, and two, your attacker will not feel a lot of pain. Make sure you wear shoes that will hurt if you kick someone with them, and keep your feet covered so you can kick as hard as you want.
Do not wear your hair in a bun, ponytail, braids, or any other hairstyle that can be grabbed easily.
Utilize your hands, feet, and elbows. If you are grabbed, kick, slap, bite, scratch, and pinch for all you are worth. If youâre grabbed from behind, swing your legs up in front of you to chest level, then kick behind you with all youâve got. If youâre grabbed from in front, kick with all your might in the groin area, and also at the knees. If your attackerâs knees buckle, theyâll spend a few seconds regaining their balance or getting to their feet, which buys you some time to get the heck out of there. Also note that the underarm area between the elbow and shoulder is extremely sensitive. Pinch there as hard as you possibly can. Also scratch as viciously as you can at the face (especially the eyes).
If you are attacked, and youâre wearing a mask, RIP IT OFF. There are several reasons for this. If youâre trying to scream while wearing a mask, for one thing, the sound will be muffled, and for another, youâll eventually have to stop for breath, and you might accidentally inhale your mask. (Try talking quickly for several minutes while wearing a mask. Youâll see what I mean and realize that you donât want a mask on while screaming). Another reason to take the mask off is that your attacker could use it as a kind of gag to silence you, or maybe even to choke and weaken you. Wearing a mask will also prevent you from being able to bite, which is really handy to do if youâre attacked. So if youâre wearing a mask and youâre attacked, tear the mask off. Donât worry about the virus.
If you are about to go out of wherever you are to your car, do not get your keys out or look at your phone while youâre in the parking lot or garage. Get your keys out while youâre in a public area, then walk out to your car, being extremely observant. You can hold your keys in your fist if you want, but it wonât really repel an attacker. (So, again, an umbrella is useful). Then, when you get to your car, do not get in the car and sit looking at your phone. Whatever it is you want to look at can wait until you get home. An attacker will absolutely climb in your car and force you to drive somewhere. Donât sit around. Leave.
Be aware of your surroundings. If you feel like youâre being followed, go to a public area and call a friend or family member to come find you. Tell them your exact location, then stay in the area until they come get you. Have them walk you to your car and see you safely off. Either that, or get a security guard or somebody trustworthy to escort you from the store.
If you are being tailed in your car, call a friend or family member who lives in a well-populated area and calmly tell them youâre coming over. Then take as many detours as you possibly can until you reach their house. When you get there, go straight inside. Wait until you are certain youâre not being followed any more; maybe even stay the night. When you go out again, leave the area by a different route and drive down as many roads and turns as you can just in case youâre still being followed.
If youâre approaching your car to get into it, and you see a car parked beside yours with a person sitting on the side right beside the driver's seat of your car, then stop and go back into the store or whatever you just came from. Have someone like a security guard or a cashier walk you to your car. Donât feel like youâre being a nuisance. Your suspicions about the other person could be legitimate.
If youâre using a public restroom, donât let your guard down. Do your business quickly. If someone tries to force the door, throw all your weight against it and scream for help. If your attacker tries crawling under the door, kick their head with all your might, step on them, anything, while still screaming. If your attacker is only trying to force the door, donât try to crawl into another stall. That other stall most likely will be open, and your attacker will easily figure out that youâre trying to escape. You may also get stuck crawling. Stay in the stall you are in. If screaming doesnât do anything, you may have to call the police. If nobody tries forcing the door, still keep extreme caution exiting the stall. Be on your guard as you wash your hands, and keep a sharp lookout in the mirror. Donât linger in the bathroom. Get out as fast as you can.
If you are in a building with stairs and an elevator, TAKE THE ELEVATOR. If you see someone on the elevator you wouldnât feel comfortable being alone with, stay the heck off. Waiting a few minutes for the elevator to come around again is way better than potentially getting assaulted.
Please, stay safe, and exercise extreme caution. We can only hope that the sick people who are encouraging assault are too cowardly to carry it out.
Stay safe guys. Today I saw a failing begging for money. Me and my mom went home with our groceries and we came back to the family. I packed books that I definitely didnt need and old art supplied for the kids, I also packed food for them and my mom got them juices. The look on the kids faces really brought joy as we handed them what packed.
These are hard times.
My dog has also gotten injured a bit, but he's still trying to be the best boi he can be.
People have lost their jobs, and it's so bad. Doing something helpful for them really made all the money we spent matter. And we spent a lot.
Fuck i fell over
