are you disabled or suffer from other chronic conditions that often leave you bed bound? do you often feel like you’re in the “damn bitch you live like this?” meme because cleaning is too exhausting?

my protip is get yourself one of THESE bad boys and hang it by your bed

it’s an over the door shoe rack and the pockets are perfect for holding a lot of household objects.

you can use the pockets to store trash, snacks, meds, and water bottles. if you worry about hygiene, you can also keep some for dry shampoo, deodorant, body wipes, clean undergarments, or toothbrush materials. on good days, you can clean it out and restock it, or have someone else help you. on bad days, you won’t have to worry about getting food and you’ll be able to feel a little better about hygiene.

it’s also really great if you want to keep your hobbies close by!! i can often only work on my bed, and then i have to worry about putting everything away if i have to lay down. if it’s a hobby that has materials that can be stored in the pockets, it can feel more accessible to jump in and out of and take less spoons to set/clean up.

When I went a few years ago, they were located in what was presumably supposed to be space for a parking lot security office. The rooms' walls were made of fiberboard and the lights were dimmed for what I can only assume was to save on power. There are just short of a million people on this island, and despite being one of the most consistently progressive states with a repeatedly pro-queer attitude, many of us depend on the Lavender Clinic because we have nowhere else to go. Please consider throwing a few bucks their way – it's not like we can just drive somewhere else to get care.

this is an immediate need, as well, in case anyone doesn't click through to the link. they share that they're at risk of closing within weeks/months without adequate funding. it's all well and good to decry transphobes, but we need to do what we can to defend and improve the lives of trans people. if you can send anything, please do.

i know my platform is pretty weak and i usually don’t post shit like this but please sign and promote this. first of all, this man is likely innocent, regardless of what you think of the death penalty. second of all, his preventable state sponsored death is imminent and we have a chance to delay it. this man deserves the best possible legal representation and a right to fight for his life.

I haven’t been on here for weeks bc I’m crying and stressing out over my dog being sick and I need to take her to the vet but my job has cut my hours due to cases spiking up again and I just need help getting her to the vet and get the dental care she needs. Please anything helps 💕

Information sourced from an interview with Andrea J. Ritchie for NPR #blacklivesmatter #defundthepolice

So Kelvin Goertzen, the Conservative Minister of Education in the province of Manitoba, teleconferenced with Betsy DeVos, Ted Cruz, and an assortment of far-right agitators and neo-nazis from Germany, Brazil, and Russia, where he openly advocated using Covid-19 as a pretext to privatise the education system.

@allthecanadianpolitics​, if you could spread this around, that would be great.

this man at a Salt Lake City protest yelled “All Lives Matter”, shoots a bow and arrow into crowd of protesters before proceeding to lie about being assaulted by “two black guys” while in his car on television

the cops really maced a fucking child i'm livid, his name is Jared Campbell of SeattlePD

His name is jared campbell and his badge number is #8470. It’s not much, but you can report him for abuse of power at the seattle office of police accountability (email : opa@seattle.gov ). Here is a email template:

To Whomever it may concern in the Office of Police Accountability,

On the 30th of March, 2020, at a protest against police brutality in Seattle, a police officer used excessive force against a child. Officer Jared Campbell (Badge Number #8470) was recorded using mace against a child. This video has gone viral and is being spread on a variety of social media platforms. This an excessive use of force and an abuse of power, and this officer should be removed from his position. 

A concerned citizen, [Insert name]

for people who are unaware of why the riots in minneapolis started happening, here’s the facts:

so don’t get it twisted. the cops just want to change the narrative to make it look like they’re the wounded and righteous party, when they’re the ones who started reacting violently in the first place and are still acting violently. so don’t you ever forget who started this tragedy and murdered someone, and who are continuing to react to the situation with violence. 

All the media has been covering is the looting especially at target and how out of hand it was. While that was happening the cops outside the 3rd precinct (across the street from lake street target) were tear gassing, macing, and shooting rubber bullets and the non violent protesters. The protesters used the target shopping carts to build a barricade between them and the cops to protect themselves

Tama is boss

THE TRAINS HAVE CARTOON TAMAS ON THEM

Sad update everyone, Tama recently passed away… An estimated 3,000 people, including railway officials, attended Tama the cat’s funeral on Sunday, days after she died of heart failure aged 16. [x]

For those who haven’t read articles about it, the local shrine elevated her to a god. She’s now the Eternal Stationmaster and patron god of the station.

Beautiful.

Now I’m crying thanks

and a new cat was hired right?

yep! her name is Nitama (essentially ”second tama” or “tama II”) and she served under Tama as an apprentice before being appointed her deputy

she works very hard

Everytime this crosses my dash, I reblog. It is the law.

Law

I’m crying at 11pm over train cats

Nitama, already now a mature cat (born 2010), has a protege named Yontama (fourth Tama, b. 2016).  There is no information available for either the physical befellment or tragic self-disgrace which has removed Santama from contention.

^Nitama majestic, and below with Yontama

Yontama.

a legacy

okay but actually what happened to santama (or sun-tama-tama, which is her name because it’s a pun on santama) was that she was basically sent to train for the position in okayama and they liked her so much they refused to send her back

Every time I see this post there’s new info and it gets better

You are only allowed to scroll pass this after you pay tribute to the great Tama Station masters.

The shrine of Tama Daimyōjin (Great gracious deity Tama), next to the Kishi station where she worked.

Nitama presenting her yearly offerings to Tama Daimyōjin on the anniversary of Tama’s Death, June 23 (The offerings are presented by the company president, as Nitama is a cat and thus can’t hold the offerings herself) (Not pictured, but also present, Yontama)

the wrong amazon is burning and the wrong ice is melting

IT DIDNT CATCH FIRE IT IS BEING DELIBERATELY CLEARCUT AND BURNED BECAUSE LARGE AGROBUSINESS CONGLOMERATES PAID THEIR FASCIST GOVERNMENT TO IGNORE THIS COURT RULING

It’d explain why it isn’t getting coverage for sure.

You can give *directly* to Indigenous forest protectors in Brazil by supporting @ApibOficial (Brazilian Articulation of Indigenous Peoples). Indigenous groups are the only reason there is any rainforest left in Brazil at all at this point.

Trump wants to pay farmers $12Billion to watch their crops rot.

Trump is creating welfare for farmers.

Let me make this very clear: the people who will benefit from this are not the nice family that sells beets and greens at the Wednesday afternoon farmer’s market. These are not small family operations, these are not local area or subsistence farms. 

These are corporate monstrosities. 

Until you’ve seen a field that stretches on for twenty minutes down the highway of dead, unharvested corn that takes until almost the new year to finally rot off, it can be hard to separate the concept of corporate farming from the notion of the down-home American farmer. If you, like me, grew up in a rural area where you and everyone you knew was a subsistence farmer, it can be hard to recognize the scale, damage, and genuine monstrousness of corporate farming.

And indeed, even the people who plant corporate crops and till corporate fields- the actual farmers- will not be the ones who see benefit from this.

The companies that own those people will be the ones to see these benefits, and they will no more share them with the folks doing the tilling than they will with you or me.

The actual farmers, who are already being drowned in debt by these corporations, will probably never see this money, and those corporations will find ways to claim this money wasn’t enough to ease their “burdens” and they will undoubtedly continue to strangle the life out of those people.

The use of “farmer aid” and the idea of the farmer is a blatant political ploy to present an already generally poor and financially unstable group of people as being “rightfully” helped by these expenditures, while straight up pouring money into some of the largest corporations in the country. 

Let me also clarify, because someone will point this out, yes, the vast bulk (around 90%) of farm land in the US is “family owned.” However, only corporations tend to see this aid, and most of the reason farms aren’t directly owned by corporations (rather they are “organized” by coroporations), is so that if there’s a horrible price flip- such as say by the fucking President completely screwing international trade in farm commodities like soy- the farmers get fucked and the Ag Corps have no risk or losses to speak of.

Reblogging because this last comment really nails it. I grew up in an agriculture city (a small city but definitely a city). Farmers and orchardists owned thd land but got the bulk of their income from the corporations they sell to. Its the corporations that sell to other countries. Wit the tariffs so high, those countries aren’t buying, which means the corporations aren’t going to buy. Which means the farmers lose their income, and so do the people who work the fields and orchards. And so do the people that work in the processing plants (where fresh corps are sorted and packaged for selling) of those corporations because not buying crops means not processing them either, and they won’t see a dime of that.subsidy money either because it will al go to paying the salaries of the top tier of those corporations.

For those of you playing at home, this is yet another way in which Trump is taking money from the poor and middle class to give to his friends in the 1%. Straight up.
