I am gonna throttle the fuck out of this asshole on twitter and I do not care that I've just thrown most of my anonymity in regards to my hometown out the fucking window to do so.
How fucking DARE he insinuate that people affected by a fire that's just thrown a fuck tonne of chemicals into the air and wiped out a bunch of our remaining industry aren't really people. It's made even worse by the fact that the people affected are mostly families, working class, and/or BIPOC. Fucking wanker.
That factory wasn't meant to go up. In fact, most of the chemicals probably weren't from the "dangerous" steelworks (known in area for being decent employers ffs), but rather from the fucking print shop and garage that also caught on fire!! It's also pretty well-known locally that we have an arsonist who TARGETS shit like the industrial park that went up. And every single fucking time it's the families, the working class, the medically vulnerable, and the BIPOC individuals of the town that get hit with the most impact. And callous Tory bastards don't give a flying fuck and instead demean those who've only just been allowed to return to their home, with several households only able to return temporarily because it is STILL an ongoing incident.
Even our fucking MP hasn't raised a damn finger the Tory wanker. What did we expect from Mr "I'll send my secretary to buy sex toys and vote against feeding the kids in a pandemic"??? The fucking COUNCIL did more, and they're shoddy at the best of times!! (Not the repair workers etc, they're decent, but like the higher ups who're in the tories pockets.)
People make me fucking sick sometimes. Assholes.
Hey it’s ace week and you’re local ace has something to say! I’ve been out as ace for 3 years now and it’s still a big part of my identity that I’m proud of so here’s a lil something for those who need it!
Bro.... you’re excluding ace and aro people from LGBTQ+ spaces?? In 2020?? Ngl.... that’s kinda cringe, bro...
Honestly as a blind person I’m so tired of seeing fictional blind characters who don’t use white canes or other guides. “They have special powers so they know what’s around them” or “they’re confident enough to not need a guide” are common tropes, and I’m tired.
Are people scared that using a white cane will make their blind character seem weak? They can’t use a cane because they’re so special that they already know what’s around them, and other blind people who use guides are inferior because they’re not special?
I’m tired. Give your blind characters white canes and other guides. Let them hold onto their friends, let them have guide dogs. Don’t make white cane users feel ostracized for not being “strong enough” to go without.
Another thing that pisses me off is when a sighted character comes up with the fantasy equivalent of braille and teaches it to the blind character. Braille was invented by Louis Braille, a blind man, in 1824. The blind character should be the one coming up with it.
Tldr I’m blind and tired of sighted people lol

Get to know Kamala Harris
- Pushed a law that forces schools to turn undocumented students over to ICE, separating them from their parents and violating human rights
- Laughed about putting parents in jail if their kids missed school, disproportionately harming single parent households, the poor, and families of color like this one, including homeless mothers
- Her office refused to address what the Supreme Court calls “unconstitutionally overcrowded” prisons specifically to perpetuate the exploitation of the mass incarcerated for slave labor close to $1/hour(she later claimed she didn’t know her own lawyers argued this.
- Declined to prosecute Steven Mnuchin after his bank’s predatory lending and foreclosure fraud broke the law “over a thousand” times and ruined the lives of thousands of homeowners, keeping him free to donate to her campaign and become Trump’s Treasury Secretary
- Spent years jailing disproportionately black nonviolent cannabis users while opposing taking cannabis off DEA’s list of most dangerous substances and literally laughing at the idea of legalizing it multiple times, even as her Republican opponent ran to the left of her on the issue. She then tried to pander by admitting to smoking herself despite prosecuting others, but got her story all wrong, and even offended her own Jamaican family to the point they’ve disassociated with her
- Used a technicality to stop the release of a man serving 27 years-to-life after being wrongfully convicted of possession of a knife under the three-strikes law she supported. When civil rights groups and nearly 100,000 petition signatures got him released after 14 years she took him back to court again for a crime he didn’t commit

- Protected serial child rapists by refusing to prosecute in the Catholic Church sex abuse scandal
- Lied about her state’s solitary confinement to block a suit by inmates, claiming there was none in California when there were about 6,400 victims of the practice, which is considered torture
- Oversaw a state prosecutor falsifying a confession to get a life sentence and then destroyed the evidence, upheld a conviction secured by a prosecutor lying under oath, and oversaw the framing of another man
- Opposed legislation that would require independent investigation of fatal police shootings despite criticism from many civil rights advocates including California’s Legislative Black Caucus
- Opposed statewide implementation of police body cameras and ignored police brutality, multiple officers raping a teenager, and other officers sharing racist and homophobic messages, despite multiple requests from the public defender
- Refused to hand over the names of police whose testimonies led to convictions despite the officers’ arrest records and past misconduct
- Tried to deny a transgender inmate healthcare and endangered trans women by forcing them into mens prisons, leading to the rape and torture of at least one trans inmate
- Stood by silently as $730 million was spent on moving inmates to for-profit private prisons
- Delayed the confiscation of illegal firearms from dangerous people, then posed a “continued risk to public safety” by failing to implement changes state auditors recommended to fix this despite receiving $24 million specifically for this purpose
- Voted two different times to block federal funding for abortions
- Following the foreclosure fraud scandal she negotiated a deal great for banks but bad for the ruined homeowners, becoming one of Wall Street’s favorite candidates to fundraise for
- Voted to give Trump increased military spending two different times.
- Supports Trump escalating war in Syria
- Co-sponsored the bill that let Trump impose sanctions on Iran which violated the nuclear deal and lead to the currently rising tensions

- Supports collecting and keeping DNA from people even if they’ve not been charged with a crime
- Defended the discriminatory practice of cash bail in court as recently as June 2016
- Supports Israel’s right-wing government and cozies up to AIPAC, co-sponsored resolution against Obama in support of illegal settlements, does not support Palestinian rights, and calls BDS “anti-semitic”
- Claimed to be unaware of sexual harassment and retaliation by her top aide over a 6 year span
- Sponsored a bill allowing for prosecutors to seize profits before charges are even filed and opposed a bill that would reform civil asset forfeiture
- Defended a prison’s religious discrimination in hiring policy
- Opposed calls to tear down 700 miles of existing border wall/fence
- Fought to limit amount of land indigenous tribes could place in trust and tried to take reservation land away from a tribe just to keep them from evicting a non-indigenous man who had lived there without paying rent for 24 years
- Is a latecomer in endorsing Medicare for All and already appears to be backtracking on multiple aspects of it
- Refused to review a case in which a pharmaceutical CEO killed his wife but made it look like a suicide after their son died under mysterious circumstances as well

This cat strikes me as both fascinated by the sensation of the rain - the smell, sound, and feel of it - and completely mortified by the fact that it comes with being wet
This cat is like “I am enjoying approximately 75% of this experience but I’m not sure if it’s worth that other 25%”
