I know he’s destroying buildings and blowing up trees but look how SICK he looks
george blames dream for not saving him but is vehement that they are still not in their divorce arc
let's all just take a moment to acknowledge how surreal dream smp is when you think about it. philza (y'know, the guy from hardcore minecraft) was put on house arrest for treason. tubbo, a streamer who recently participated in a big-name chess tournament against logic the rapper and rainn wilson, tried to execute hypixel player technoblade. for a two-week period in december, two hundred thousand people opened twitch at 3pm EST every day and watched popular speedrunner dream psychologically torment comedy youtuber tommyinnit for two hours straight. jesus christ.
Fanfic be like, "if you don't have your own gay little man, store bought is fine"
Everyone else: Fundy arc! Niki arc! Jack arc!
Me, staring directly at Puffy:
Straight people are getting way too comfy making "ironic" homophobic jokes. No, you aren't just mocking them. Stop.
Case in point: Dream and George in that "Sapnap sus compilation" joke in the new manhunt. Also, the people in the comments saying they want that.
I completely agree, I also have this gripe. Like with that tweet thread Dream did about “Top 5 Gayest Minecraft Youtubers”, I don’t believe Dream actually has anything against the LGBTQ community and actually believe he really supports it, however the casual homophobia is a problem I have with him.
Dream is my fav MCYT, but it’s good to acknowledge where he can grow. Again, I truly believe Dream supports the LGBTQ community, but he can be hypocritical
american leftists seem extremely focused on anti imperialism (good) but rarely- if at all- discuss decolonization in their own fucking country, despite acknowledging that it is a settler colonial state.
im serious about this though. as an urban indian, i definitely cant speak on this as much as a rez indian could. but i know from talking to rez friends i have and from what the american indian movement has screamed for over the years that we need land we can grow on, we need clean water, we need to allow the wildlife that once lived in this land to live here again (meaning you need to listen to us before building those high speed rails you all get so hard over).
you cant drool over the zapatistas while ignoring people in your own country who have a similar goal
silly me I never provided things to read on the topic of decolonization! I'd personally suggest the following as "beginner level" essential reading to understand decolonization:
Discourse on Colonialism (Aimé Césaire) - this is more a focus on colonization, but I feel it's a necessary read in my opinion as in order to understand decolonization I believe it's important to first understand colonization.
Wretched of the Earth (Franz Fanon)
Decolonization is Not a Metaphor (Tuck, Yang)
also an "easy to process" read, to understand landback specifically here in Turtle Island, I'd suggest reading The Red Deal (there is a pdf, I don't mean the article with the same title)
HEY GUYS! YOU KNOW BREONNA TAYLOR??? YEAH WELL HER BOYFRIEND IS GETTING FUCKING SUED BY ONE OF HER KILLERS. LISTEN TO ME WHEN I SAY THAT BLACK LIVES FUCKING MATTER
okay I drew Nico. does anyone want to see
@destiel-gives-me-grief well here you go, it’s not very good but I’m proud of it
“Not very good????” HONEY THIS IS ABSOLUTE GOD TIER STUFF, HE LOOKS SO HAPPY, I LOVE THIS PINTROVERT CHILD
when you’re right you’re right
Hi guys!!!! So,lately I received an anon who said they didn't want to live anymore. We made a deal that I'd make them a one note = one day post.
I don't know who they are so I'm pinning it so they can check every day without having to scroll for ages.
Please help them live!!!
ways to help protestors if you are unable to protest
everybody has to do their part. as a reference, this was posted on 1 june 2020. if any links are broken or direct to a place they should not, please feel free to add on with corrections. if there is new information with better knowledge, please feel free to share. thank you.
1. donate
do not donate to shaun king. he has repeatedly collected money to “support” black people, but no one knows where the money is.
BAIL FUNDS (ALPHABETICAL ORDER; NOT A COMPREHENSIVE LIST)
note: washington dc and new jersey have cashless bail systems.
- bail fund google doc (also includes lawyers for protestors)
- national bail fund network (directory of community bail funds)
- community bail funds masterpost by @keplercryptids
- resistance funds (google sheets; lists bail funds around the country)
- nationwide bail funds (split a donation to the bail funds listed on the linked page with a single transaction)
- atlanta bail fund
- brooklyn bail fund
- colorado freedom fund
- columbus freedom fund
- houston chapter of black lives matter
- liberty fund (nyc based; focuses services on people from low-income communities)
- los angeles freedom fund
- louisville community fund
- massachusetts bail fund
- minnesota freedom fund (as of may 30, 2020, they are encouraging people to donate elsewhere since they have raised enough money; as of may 29, 2020, they do not have a venmo, as some fraudulent accounts have been claiming, source)
- philadelphia bail out fund
- richmond bail fund
MORE PLACES TO DONATE
note: more links are listed in the masterposts below.
- northstar health collective (healthcare and medical aid for people on the front lines)
- reclaim the block (aims to redistribute police funding to help the minneapolis community)
- twin cities dsa (provides fresh groceries and hot meals to people in minneapolis)
2. educate yourself
it isn’t enough to sign petitions and reblog/retweet/etc. nonblack people, including people of color, owe it to black people to educate themselves and correct themselves and the people around them on anti-blackness.
note: more links are in the masterposts linked below.
- resources and tools regarding racism and anti-blackness (google sheets compilation)
- readings on society, racism, the prison system, etc. (twitter thread)
- “where do we go after ferguson?” by michael eric dyson
- official black lives matter website
3. give out supplies to protestors
people need supplies to protest safely, and even if they bring supplies with them, they can often run out. if you’re able, stock up and hand them out to people protesting. for more supplies to donate, see the “george floyd action” google docs link in section 5.
- water bottles (dehydration and heatstroke are not things people should have to deal with alongside bastard cops. if the police in your area are particularly violent or known to use tear gas, get the ones with the sports cap/suction-thing/etc so people can use them as emergency eye-flushes.)
- snacks (make sure to take into account that people have allergies of all sorts. foods will have a little label that says “may contain” and then list any potential allergens. write the allergens on the ziploc (or any container you use) in permanent marker, or better yet, write the snacks included in the pack.)
- masks (don’t forget there’s still a pandemic going on. also it will aid in deterring facial recognition when the police try to track down protestors, also part two, if the cops use tear gas, wearing a mask (with the combination of a scarf or bandana) will lessen the adverse effects. lessen, not stop.)
- bandanas, scarves, etc. and goggles (ski goggles, swimming goggles, etc.) (see above for explanation on the scarves. same goes for the goggles. anti–tear gas and anti–facial recognition.)
- clean shirts (for people who are heavily gassed. also helps deter recognition through clothing.)
- wound care supplies (band-aids, packets of neosporin packets or a similar antibiotic, alcohol wipes, etc.; if you can, decant bactine into those little travel bottles.)
- a sharpie or another type of marker (for writing bail numbers or emergency contacts on arms, hands, etc. it’s not enough to have your city’s bail fund number stored on your phone; the police won’t give it to you to look it up. give people a marker so they can write it down, preferably not washable so it isn’t easily removed.)
IMPORTANT: KNOWING FIRST AID
tear gas: if you’re hit, get out as fast and as soon as you can. take anyone you can with you. the longer you’re in the gas, the harder it will be for you to see, and it can irritate your airways, making it hard to breathe. if you’re hit, don’t run; it’ll only make things worse on your lungs. when you leave the area, take a cold shower. don’t use hot water (it will only reactivate the agent); don’t bathe (it will only spread the CS around). (source 1) (source 2) (cdc fact sheet on tear gas)
- move them to a clean and ventilated area where it’s as safe as possible.
- ask them if they’re wearing contact lenses. have them remove it. if they’re wearing glasses, rinse it with water.
- solution of half liquid antacid, half water. spray from the inside going out, with the head tilted back and slightly towards the side being rinsed. if they say it’s okay, open the eye slightly while doing this. (source)
bullet wounds: the most important thing is to stop the bleeding. be sure to check for an exit wound and cover that as well. treat both wounds, but treat the worse one first.
- stop the bleed (youtube video by uc san diego health)
- first aid in active shooting scenarios
- making a tourniquet (a commercial tourniquet is best, but improvised ones can work as well if done properly; the most important things to remember is that tourniquets are for limb injuries and are not meant for the head or torso and that they have to be very tightly wound on the injury.)
- how to apply pressure dressings
miscellaneous
- adult cpr tutorial (youtube video by cincinnati children’s; think of “staying alive” by the beegees or “uptown funk”)
4. be a source of information
be responsible with this. people’s lives are at stake. that being said, the media is a fucking joke and the best way to get accurate information in a grassroots rebellion is amongst ourselves. record everything, but if you are going to share any information at all, be sure to blur people’s faces.

- tech tips to protect yourself while protesting (by rey.nbows on tiktok, via vicent_efl on twitter)
- cop spotting 101 (google docs)
- know your rights (by personachuu on twitter)
NUMBERS TO CALL FOR ARRESTED PROTESTORS (ALPHABETICAL ORDER; SOURCES LINKED TO THE NUMBER)
remember to keep phones OFF unless absolutely necessary. cell phone towers, stingrays, location notifs can all be used to track you and other protestors. don’t fuck around. if your phone must be on, keep it on airplane mode as often as possible and only communicate using encrypted methods. no, snapchat doesn’t count. (a twitter thread on stingrays, for those interested)

COMMISSIONS
HEADSHOT, HALF, OR FULL BODY, YOUR CHOICE
Sketch: ANY AMOUNT!
Color AND/OR multiple characters: $10 and up
If interested DM me here or @kotomikun; Reblogs greatly appreciated
Since these donations are time sensitive, and I've been keeping a good pace, I'm going to open these back up
I'm adding this link as it compiles lots of ways to help and places to donate
Also I would like to add that I am now only accepting NEW donations with a TIMESTAMP as it was brought to my attention that they can be reused, and it gives incentive to donate again
please continue to spread this, thank you! <3
