One of the leaders of the LGBT+ movement in America, she was known not only for her strength and bravery as an activist, but also for her boundless generosity. If you complimented an accessory of hers, she’d give it to you.

Meet Sarya: she was experiencing a mental health crisis. Police came and tackled her. She is 15.
Saraya Rees is a 15 year old biracial girl from Coos County, Oregon. After being abruptly instructed to stop taking her antidepressants by a local pediatrician, Saraya went into psychosis. In her manic state, Saraya poured a small amount of gasoline on the floor. Her parents called Coos Health & Wellness in hope that that would send mental health advisors, Coos Health & Wellness sent the police. While still in psychosis, the officers arrested her, questioned her without her family or lawyers present, charged with attempted murder and assault, and sent her to juvenile prison for 11 years.
This is not justice.
This is inhumane.
Parents be like that's my unpayed babysitter, my eldest daughter
Parents be like that’s my emotional support eldest daughter
Rip Riot Ribs. You were so good to us.

If you see a police car or a cop with a speaker looking thing on it, FUCKING RUN. It’s known as an LRAD (Long Range Acoustic Device), a device that, when activated, can permanently damage your hearing and cause serious harm. If you’re too close, you’ll be left in a lot of pain and squirming on the ground permanently deaf. Ear plugs do not work. Unless you have one of those shooting range headphones, you do not stand a chance against them. Again, if you see them pull up, RUN. This is what they look like.
Everyday, Black women and girls are missing and either never found or found dead.
Say HER name.
15 year old JOY LYNN. She is missing from Dallas, Texas. The police aren't doing anything, so please, if you suspect anything, found a clue, or whatever, come forward.
WE CANNOT BE SILENT ABOUT THIS!
IMAGINE HOW MANY OTHER COMPANIES ARE DOING THIS!!
ALSO, WHY WOULD WAYFAIR TAKE DOWN THE CABINETS FROM THEIR WEBSITE INSTEAD OF SHOWING EVIDENCE THAT IT IS NOT TRUE?!
THAT'S SUSPICIOUS AS HELL
WARNING: The fanfic I will be reviewing is highly racist, anti-semitic, Islamophobic, and all-around despicable. It is the intolerant rantings of an alt-right white nationalist and if you are easily made uncomfortable by any of the ideas listed above, I highly suggest you not read this whatsoever.
The actual summary provided by the author is as follows: “Our world as we know it no longer exists - Europe is devastated and ruined by cruel civil war between White Europeans and Islamic invaders. But the brave European nations N. Italy, Hungary, Austria and Poland, with Russia’s help, unite and fight to protect Europe from the NWO and Terrorism.”
For real. You think that the Hetalia fandom can’t get any worse, and then it throws this at you. I know that we don’t have the best reputation- and I could even argue that our reputation is unwarranted- but this… this is a new low.
So, yeah. Read at your own risk.

im exhausted from blocking u and sending ur dumbass posts to my friends to talk shit so here’s a tutorial on how not to be a demon. ur welcome white devil
broke: speaking for us
woke: boosting our voices
broke: #im white tag
woke: putting that you’re white in your about page where we can always see it instead of tagging the bi monthly post you rb about racism with this
broke: uwu please let me know if i do something racist
woke: taking responsibility for yourself, monitoring your own actions, being receptive of criticism even if it’s not delivered to you in a nice way
broke: distancing yourself from your whiteness by making white people jokes and talking mad shit abt other white people
woke: understanding that you are not somehow less white than other white people bc you aren’t a cishet able bodied nt man
broke: getting mad when we make jokes abt hating white people
woke: understanding that you don’t get to monitor how we express our anger abt the trauma we’ve experienced at white people’s hands
broke: arguing with us about what is or isn’t racism
woke: understanding that you have never actually experienced racism, staying in your lane, actually listening to us
broke: making racism abt you and your feelings
woke: understanding your experiences with and perspective on racism are dumb and don’t matter, focusing on people of color instead
broke: constantly asking your friends of color to roast people for you
woke: not dragging us into all your messes, handling your own beef, understanding we’re probably tired of ur shit, learning to roast people yourself
broke: reblogging posts abt racism with #let me know if this is ok to rb
woke: not rbing posts if you think rbing it would be overstepping boundaries, contacting op to ask if you can rb their post, developing critical thinking skills
broke: “yeah i dont do this” or “omg i didnt realize that was Bad and i was actively hurting people by doing it” on posts abt racism
woke: reading and comprehending them, reblogging them silently and without commentary, not trying to get brownie points at all times
broke: answering asks from other white demons consoling you after you get called out for racism
woke: blocking those racist bitches, not feeding into the idea that any poc who calls you out is a monster, acknowledging that you fucked up, apologizing, not doing whatever you did again
broke: thanking me for teaching you how to treat poc like people
woke: realizing you should be embarrassed i had to tell you this shit
