"But most police officers are good."
No they're not.
In the general population, there are good people and there are bad people. And every police officer is a member of the general population who decided to become a police officer. The police are not a demographic. Every single police officer chose to be a police officer.
Therefore, if most police officers are good, then that means the police force is designed in such a way that good people are drawn to it while bad people are pushed away from it.
And that's been proven to be false many times.
The police are only as good as the laws they enforce and the standards they're held to.
As long as there are laws against victimless actions, people who only want to protect society from dangerous monsters while defending everyone's freedom are pushed away from the police force, and people who get a sick pleasure from ruining people's lives in order to boost their own egos are drawn to the police force.
As long as the police are able to abuse people and get away with it, people who believe in using as little force as necessary are pushed away from the police force, and people who were bullies in high school and want to be even bigger bullies while being seen as the good guys are drawn to the police force.
As long as capitalists who destroy other people in order to increase profits are considered smart businesspeople while poor people who steal food in order to survive are considered criminals, people who wish to improve society are pushed away from the police force, and people who wish to further traumatize those who are already suffering are drawn to the police force.
If you think most police officers are good, what is being done to draw in good people, and what is being done to push away bad people? If you're so sure that the police are good, then you'd have to have an answer to that. But for some reason, you never do.

DUUUUUUDE! Get it South Korea!
Tumblr media
That's the article directly. Please give it a read.
If South Korean actors and writers strike against Netflix, Netflix would be COMPLETELY fucked.

Happy Disability Pride to the people who have illnesses that get dismissed in the medical world, like fibromyalgia, hypermobility syndrome, etc. Here’s to us for our bodies injuring us and then not being believed about the injury. Here’s to having to fight with every nurse just to get to the doctor and hope that the doctor will take it seriously. Here’s to the clear rudeness and disbelief we hear from receptionists over the phone when we explain our injury, to the dismissive emergency orthopedics who look at us like we have two heads.
And here’s to hopefully finding a good rheumatologist who wants to help, and to finding a good physical therapist who wants the very same.

It’s been ten years since Man of Steel released. I haven’t seen the film in a long while. But I still love it to this day. Thank you Zack Snyder & everyone who worked on this film. I wanted to make a post today including @hawkofkrypton did too on his Instagram.

I think it truly speaks volumes that The Flash did something unbelievable. And that’s uniting all forms of different people on hating it. Whether they love or hate Zack Snyder, DC fans or whoever else. 
It’s strangely like the Velma show all over again.

Reminders for the Anxious/Depressed Creatives
You’re more than what you make.
Your productivity does not determine your value.
It’s okay to do nothing sometimes.
Not everything you do has to result in a product.
Not everything you make has to be important, significant, or even good.
You can make things just for yourself.
You can keep secrets for yourself, whether it’s not posting some of your projects or not sharing your techniques.
You’re allowed to say no.
You’re allowed to rest.

Bioshock cures all.
Also I hate to be that person but my dog is in desperate need of help and if you could donate or share this around I’d be really thankful.

Rooty’s Crowdfunding
So I’m in the process of working on my spending and so far, things are good. However, I’m trying very hard to pay off one credit card and my car. I’m only working 20 hours and since I don’t have Early Childhood Education certification so I’m not making that much. So, during my off time, I’m going to finish my commissions and reopen them but I also have an eBay store where I sell exclusive Pops.
