I Probably Won’t Talk A Lot About Politics Here But I Hate How People, Who Aren’t Affected By The
I probably won’t talk a lot about politics here but I hate how people, who aren’t affected by the bill or whatever being passed, complain about the bill or whatever. I live in a relatively small town in a state that is pretty liberal and open minded. My mom calls the town that we live in the ‘Trump Country’ of the state. Basically the town is relatively poor (we are being forced to cut fundings to the schools, many beloved teachers are being fired, our library is only open like two days a month if we are lucky) and most of the residents are elderly people. I’m lucky and I actually have a really good house but many of the people are living in crappy little houses that suck. Our town is also notorious for losing power at the slightest wind, or having construction going on during the morning while all the kids and teenagers are trying to get to school. The reason my mom calls our town the ‘Trump Country’ of where we live is because all of the old people that live here are very much conservative Christians. To be fair it’s not awful, our schools are really supportive and we have a lot of support, but the elderly people are definitely not supportive. There are Trump signs all over our town and a transphobic guy almost became our school’s superintendent. One thing about our town is that there hasn’t been an override passed on anything in a really long time. Another thing to know about our town is that our schools are really really shitty and outdated. Almost all schools are original schoolhouses from when the town was first founded. In my 2019-2020 school year, before lockdown, our school was being renovated and they found asbestos in the ceilings so we were forced to be on the first floor for basically the whole year (We were in our actual classrooms for maybe 1-2 months before lockdown started) . The funding that the schools got from the pandemic was really really helpful because they were finally able to renovate the schools, get better desks and chairs, and they were able to give us free lunch. Now that there is no more pandemic money the schools are back to being poor so they have to lay off a bunch of teachers and take away a bunch of activities. There is no more language or band in the middle school and the drama department is just barely staying afloat and it might get cut next year. The town decided to vote on an Override for the schools so that children could continue to enjoy doing things like band and language without having to fire practically all of their staff. Now, as mentioned before, most of my town is older people who don’t have kids in school. The override would increase taxes a little bit which makes sense. The older people, instead of looking at all of the children who are now being forced to leave the school system in our town and instead pay a lot of money for school choice, decided that they couldn’t handle a raise in their taxes, no matter how small. It should be noted that all of these old fuckers live in actual houses and they voted no, while the people living in the shitty little houses without air conditioning voted yes on this bill because they all have children. Now children are being forced to leave their friends and change schools if they want to do band before ninth grade.

This post is specifically to inform people about the new bill Trump is trying to pass. Reminder to all people to stay safe and strong during this time. Don’t be afraid to message me on here if you need someone to talk to.
Last night he announced that he was going to pass a bill banning anyone under the age of 19 from receiving gender affirming care. Unfortunately this bill will likely pass because a lot of people, even if they support the LGBTQ+ community, believe that people shouldn’t be getting gender affirming care until at least 18. Eventually this bill could be used to try and get rid of gender affirming care all together. Please stay safe, especially if you’re part of a minority and/or a minor.
I didn’t have a place for some of my presents because my rooms kinda small and weirdly shaped so I moved my dresser and used a chair my mom didn’t want to make a small mental health corner! It’s not quite done yet, I’m gonna add one of those wall bookshelves to the wall behind the chair, hang the pin board under the painting, and get little hooks and invisible string to hang the little ducks from the ceiling, but I think it looks nice so far!
The crochet was done by my friend and I love all of the little plushies that I’ve gotten from them. I personally like sitting in small/enclosed spaces but my rooms doesn’t have any, so this little nook thing is nice. I made sure that it wasn’t too enclosed because I have some friends who have claustrophobia but it’s still enclosed enough to be comfy. I also have a little heater that’s just big enough to close off the space used to get in and out. I’m really excited about this, and it has some plugs so I can charge my phone or computer while using the space!
Yeah this is definitely my favorite trope honestly. I personally don’t write but I need a mix of angst and fluff in my fic.

Oh hey you followed me! Very cool! Here take a game console of your choosing!
I’m kind of assuming that your asking what game console I like so my favorite is probably either the switch or the PlayStation. I can’t really choose one though because I use my computer the most for games.
