Not to be intersectional on main but I’ve had more rude white millennials while doing a service job than rude boomers of color. Most of the “can I talk with the manager” jokes are directly about white women and white people trying to excercise privilege and white people really washed that experience to “lol old people are mean to customer service workers.” Theres a whole racial angle to the commentary that was removed by white millennials to make themselves feel better about the situation.
Ppl without ADHD be like “oh if I get rid of all possible distractions then you’ll be forced to focus on the boring task!” Fool… You underestimate my Power
My partner: dear it’s time to get up
Me: but distractions
Partner: I have removed them
Me: sleeps
Person: we have removed all possible distractions
Me: but have you considered this?
Me: *zones out and daydreams*
Person: I have removed all distractions so you can do [insert task]
Me: *chuckles* Silly neurotypical. So naïve… Don’t you see? I AM the distraction.
PLEASE READ THE ARTICLE! They have to post bail! A release does not mean they are not being charged. They still have to show up for court. “According to newly filed papers, Tou Thao, Thomas Lane, and J. Alexander Kueng have been granted release on the conditions they post $750,000 bail, stay out of trouble, make their court appearances, do not possess firearms, and obey with supervised release.“
PROVIDED THEY CAN POST BAIL.
So far the only one who has posted the 750,000 dollar bail is Thomas Lane and his family fundraised it for himthrough GoFundMe. He posted bail 4 days ago. (6/11/2020)
apparently i lost followers for speaking up, so i’m gonna say it again.

Experiencing burnout in an area you love doesn’t mean you are no longer passionate about that thing, or are any less good at it. It’s often an indication that there are other parts of your life that need your care. A garden looks most beautiful when every flower is watered, and you deserve to nourish yourself in the same way. You will flourish again.
I always get so fucking mad when I remember that it’s actually a 16-year-old Algerian girl who influenced BOTH Picasso and Matisse. and. No one gives a rat’s ass about her work which was very focused on women and nature. History -or people dare I say- didn’t bother to remember her name because she was a young Algerian woman and no one cares about Maghrebi/Arab women. unlike P*casso & M*tisse who both became legends, almost gods both during their lives and after their deaths, no one knows her.
Covid is not over and black lives still matter. Stop trying to “go back to normal” when shit is still happening.
Stop going on trips and going to restaurants without masks.
Keep educating yourself and protesting and calling and donating and signing petitions.
Wear a mask. End white supremacy. Defund police.
I know it’s tiring but it’s not over for either thing even though people are pretending it is. I know the overlap is exhausting. But be safe, social distance, and keep fighting the good fight.
