@anthracite See, if it was me, I would've thrown in an @ instead of a second Circle-A
@dreamsofcheese throw molotovs underhanded to preserve stamina.
@anthracite If you threw an anarchist "A" in #2, i think you'd have the right amount of conflicting messages and font choice for 2020 teen aesthetics (the $ sign on the end is very choice, BTW)
re: Cleveland, us-pol
he's satisfied with my work. I've actioned on all of my requested deliverables and he has no complaints. Not that he was worried, he just wanted documentation so he could speak to my worth.
My schedule will be changing again, probably back to Monday-Friday. I didn't have the bandwidth to try and advocate for my 4-10s, Cause after thinking about the everything in the world I really wasn't having the best time.
@byttyrs amen
@Kyresti Thank you for the share! that's a cool song!
Unless you’re on the ground, are donating, or are a Black person affected by police, shut the fuck up about how we all should be burning shit down right now. Think about the Black Panthers and the causalties of Fergusion and other act Black resistance before you fix your mouth to suggest what we, “should” do.
Furthermore, riots do not make COVID-19 a hoax, nor are people who are concerned about infecting loved ones, “domesticated” for wearing masks or observing other ordinances.
Thank you.

So, what's the number up to?
I've fucking lost count. Or I just don't see the point of knowing the number. Cause it's always n+1.

1 dies. We film it. We post it, We're heartbroken. We cry, we comment, we protest. The filmers get arrested, harassed, defended, lauded, doxxed, and scrutinized too.

Maybe the cop is suspended. Maybe the cop is suspended without pay. Maybe the cop is leave of absence. Maybe the thin blue lie gets a little thicker with silent support, "Charity Balls", and increased budgets that are supposed to increase accountability, but so often get diverted in emergency appropriations for increasing the arsenal militarized hardware for even more violent reprisals against the heartbroken, grieving, and angry people who have had another tally mark added to the score of Them Vs. Us. Maybe the cop is fired. Maybe, possibly, someone, somewhere considers entertaining the possibilities of "what might happen" if there was hope of a rumor of the minuscule chance of a charge being considered to be maybe start the process of filing. Off business hours..

And we think. Maybe this time something will finally change. Maybe. Maybe. We hope, we pray. we grow fearful, and paranoid. We constantly move our eyes, sensitized to every possible reaction, flinching every time we hear sirens because we don't know what we're going to hear about in the next hour. Some buy guns. Some buy better phones. Some buy bullet resistant backpacks and teach their children de-escalation drills and body control and making yourself as small and harmless and non-threatening as possible, just because someone with a badge -that same someone I just told you last week you should go find if someone is in trouble, I know what I said, both things are true, baby, I'm sorry- can take offense at your child's appearance and kill them. And we know all the preparation won't be enough. Might not be enough. Could never be enough. And we try. We look into the faces of our kids when they ask us why?

And we try to answer. Some say because of jealousy. Some say racism. The devil, history, society all take their turn in living rooms, kitchens, bedroom closets and the safe cabinet under the kitchen counter where you think no one looks for you, but instead everyone knows that's where you go when you don't want to be found. Only coming out when you think everyone has forgotten about you and you can be safe again and your maybe a little hungry and feeling ready to be around people again.

@LilyVers hell yeah! I always wanted a yearbook title. Most I ever got was a mention in a club or activity group shot.

re: somewhat odd random media question; 🐯
@zebratron2084 and topping this all off, Calvin should be voiced by Will "Terry Mcginnes" Friedle
re: somewhat odd random media question; 🐯
@zebratron2084 Phil Lamar, or LeVar Burton would also be a good choice.
