On the origin of rubber(clad) bullets, repost with CW 

Rubber bullets were invented by the British Ministry of Defence for use against the civilian population in Ireland. With these lethal and deadly bullets the British Security Forces killed 17 people between 1972-1989, 8 of those were children and all but one were Catholics.
The PSNI still uses rubber bullets to this day.

ACAB, Sarcasm, Capitalism. 

If the police don't want to be Defunded and restricted by laws that severely punish Brutality, they should just Not Be Cops and go get a job somewhere Else in our great and vibrant capitalist economy!

Why, there's all sorts of jobs Violent, overweight, aggressive men can do in our modern society!

They just don't get Authority and Legal Plot Armor as an Accountant, or a cashier or construction worker, so when they abuse their spouse, they're gonna go to jail.

USpol, masculinity in the USA 

Something about the current iteration of the #BlackLivesMatter movement that only just struck me? The number of men--young and old, of all races--who have told the press that the video of George Floyd's death made them cry. Now, AMAB folks who grow up in the USA are trained from birth that "men don't cry", and indeed, that most emotional expression is "unmanly". But seeing a real murder? That broke things open.

Normalize men expressing emotions in healthy ways.

Horny 

Kinda feel like sensually and sexually Obliterating a transfemme friend today.

Not any one in particular, just kinda craving some totally genderfucked showering and sensual play before wrecking her suspension in her favorite way.

...Or their, or even His, I'm not super picky today.

You know, I started taking titty skittles because I had seen what they'd done for a bunch of my friends and wanted in.

I got a totally different result than everyone else, but got what I Actually Wanted.

Being Non-binary is a wild ride

YES.

US POL, honest question 

What is up with Trump, Rudy, and Tucker Carlson all wearing that orange makeup and being all pink around the mouth?

Are they Aliens? Replicants? Pod People? Dealing with major liver failure?

Seriously, why do they all look like that?

gender stuff, more silly 

Me today: Being a non-binary woman means to be a woman in an anarchist way.

I make the rules of how much I want to be woman, man, neither or both or just something completely different.

Non-binary folks are gender-anarchists

Some notes on home made riot shields 

Okay. Some of you will need to know this.

Plywood shields proof against anything the cops can shoot at you, short of a Firearm, can be made from materials available at Home Depot.

You will need 1/4" or thinner plywood panels, 1" thick styrene insulating foam, and Gorilla Glue or Spray adhesive, like super 77.

A laminate made of styrene foam and thin plywood is stupefyingly light and strong. I made a motor vehicle out of this composite for my Associate's degree.

Demolishing it was more than a Chore, I needed a saw. impact resistant after a decade of dry rot. A shield made of the stuff, and curved slightly, will keep you safe against anything short of 9mm.

Face it with a quarter inch of HDPE sheet, or an eighth of an inch of sapphire fiberglass and resin, and now 9mm is having a hard time Killing you.
