George Floyd.

Okay but like, just imagine you’re majoring in History, your unrequited lover in STEM.

The heated debates because you are both far too passionate about your major. But the giggly and soft atmosphere numbs the seriousness.

The shitty puns and jokes. However you both have to explain them, and that’s fine because anything to hear them talk about something they love. Eyes twinkling, wide smile, the lot.

And you both take a vow to use science as well as history to discover if Napoleon was actually short.

Then you both fall in love. Even more.

And. Yeh. Just a thought.

Hello! 

I have created The Dark Room Collective for POC’s to come together to make bonds and to collaborate on books, poems, and more! 

Once a month we will have discussion about that book of the month, with have biweekly poems/short stories/plays to talk about also. Members of the collective are encouraged to give suggestions and vote on polls; that will have 3-5 books to vote from. 

How do I join? 

Please message me! I will send the link through private message.

Reminder

I know we all have lives as do I, but try to stay active in the chat. We don’t want a dead server or the server going to sh*t.

“Why are you guys being so dramatic?”

We’re being “dramatic” for Breonna Taylor.

For Ahmaud Arbery.

For George Floyd.

For Tony McDade.

For the people who lost their siblings.

For the people who lost their children.

For the people who lost their parents.

For the people who lost their lives.

We’re being “dramatic” because people died. Because people suffered.

you don't need to be productive all the time. you deserve to take breaks. you don't need to try and fill every small gap with something productive to do. you are allowed to just sit on the bus and stare out of the window or listen to music or whatever you'd like, there's no need for you to use every small moment for revising or learning. you are allowed to use all those moments to just relax and breathe, and you should.

for people who are unaware of why the riots in minneapolis started happening, here’s the facts:

it wasn’t george floyd’s protesters who started reacting violently; it was the cops.

the protest was peaceful until the cops showed up in riot gear, and started using water cannons, followed up by tear gas and rubber bullets. i got videos from friends who were there, of people screaming and running away from the cops shooting the water cannons, rubber bullets and throwing tear gas at them. they were even shooting at the protesters dragging people away to get medical attention.

speaking of medical attention, dispatch refused to provide any medical attention to the protesters. people literally had to drive their bleeding friends to the hospital because they refused to send ambulances.

cops are using non-lethal weapons in a lethal way. they shot rubber bullets into people’s heads and injured them. there’s dozens of photos of protesters with bleeding head wounds from the rubber bullets.

multiple people used police scanners and heard that there were undercover cops pretending to be violent protesters who were throwing rocks and whatnot at the police, with dozens of eyewitness accounts confirming that information.

the person who instigated all the chaos last night (it was a fire at an autozone) with the looting and burning buildings is highly suspected to be an undercover cop pretending to be a protester, because the video of him keeps getting taken down. protesters tried to stop him but couldn’t because he had a hammer and they were scared for their safety.

the cops jammed cell phone towers and cut live streams to interrupt broadcasts and to prevent people from seeing what was really going on and who actually started the violence.

the cops lied about protesters being armed and about throwing rocks and are literally trying to continue the violence happening and yet no one is holding them accountable for that.

and during all this, the cop that murdered george floyd still hasn’t been arrested. he has had more than ten complaints filed against him and was involved in three other civilian shootings in the past. and yet he’s still out free along with his three other buddies involved, probably sitting on his couch while all this chaos is happening.

so don’t get it twisted. the cops just want to change the narrative to make it look like they’re the wounded and righteous party, when they’re the ones who started reacting violently in the first place and are still acting violently. so don’t you ever forget who started this tragedy and murdered someone, and who are continuing to react to the situation with violence.
