We need to bring more attention to a pressing matter. Since 2015, Officers have fatally shot and killed over 135 unarmed black people. Nearly every officer was white.
6 years ago, in 2018, 22 year old Stephon Clark was shot at more than 20 times. He was a Sacramento, California resident who grew up and lived there. He would be 28 this year.
He was in his grandmothers backyard, holding a mobile phone. Officers claimed that they believed the phone was a gun; A weak excuse.
His life was cut short on March 18, 2018, during late afternoon; before dusk. He had 2 kids. He was hit by 7 bullets. The officers shot to kill, not to disarm.
Terrence Mercadel and Jared Robinet faced no criminal charges. He was wrongfully killed by them. In 2019, Clark's family reached a settlement of $2.4m.
Say their names. Yell it. Sonya Massey and Stephon Clark, and every single wrongfully killed black person out there.
Say their fucking names.
This is way too cute to miss or even not reblog. 🥹🤌🫶

Uh-huh. Sure, you are completely a sane human being ;)
"You're not. A burden is something you're forced to carry against your will, and I freely choose to be a part of your life. That means you aren't a burden to me."
Oh how I wish someone says this to me. Besides, I hope all of you get good rest, drink plenty of water, eat well, and have some hugs.
there is a huge difference between criticizing an institution and criticizing individual behavior. i can criticize the makeup industry without criticizing the 14 year old girl who uses concealer because she’s self-conscious about her acne; i can criticize the plastic surgery industry without vilifying the woman who decided to get a nose job after two decades of pointed comments and bullying. it is intellectually dishonest to respond to an institutional criticism as if it were a personal attack; on the flip side, it is cruel and unnecessary to leverage personal attacks in the name of institutional criticism
if i see one (1) more person respond to a perfectly reasonable beauty-industry-critical sentiment with “but i personally enjoy eyeshadow. why are you attacking people who like eyeshadow :(” or “exactly, all women who wear makeup are miserable and brainwashed” i am going to climb a tree and bite the top of it
Chuuya is pretty unpredictable, so I guess I wouldn't be too surprised if he decided to pull a knife or a gun on me at our wedding.
I'm bored so random question of the day: You're stuck with the Moriarty brothers from Moriarty the Patriot. Your reaction? Me personally, it's either going to be: A. Go silent and do my own thing, leave them alone
B. Cry and try to find a way out
C. Talk to them but be really cautious and nervous.
Hello girls, gals, and gays. I draw, maybe write, and just doing whatever.
