im sick to death of hearing teachers complaining about their students on social media. first if all i dont think you should at all be complaining if theres even a CHANCE that it can be traced back to you if you are complaining about your students, children are extremely fragile and if they hear what you say that could haunt them for the rest of their lives. and now we have fuckjng podcasts and video shorts of teachers telling fucking stories of their bad experiences with *kids* when they were teaching. I HOPE YOU NEVER WORK IN CHILD CARE AGAIN ARE YOU KIDDING ME????? its INSANE. and i just seent this bitch ACTUALLY FILM INSIDE OF HER CLASSROOM AND COMPLAIN ABOUT HER STUDENTS. ARE YOU INSANE. I HOPE YOU GET FIRED.

I had a really interesting day today. These past few days have been particularly hard on me from just the stress of the news media and also the frustration of a bigot and eugenics apologist living below me and actively making the lives of the unhoused people in our neighborhood hell. Today was just one of those days where I was hit with existential dread of it all and fear of what the future will hold.
Normally on the way home from work I wear my earbuds and just focus on walking from the bus to my apartment. Now a block down from me that I walk past literally every single day is a house I always assumed was a neighborhood daycare center. Today for some reason I just didn't bother to put my earbuds in and walked past just as a man was gathering a group of elderly people and asked if I'd like to join a meeting for a disability advocacy group to discuss getting a bill providing more disability care through our province. Long story short and three hours later I had the pleasure of sitting and talking with some of the most intelligent lovely people. People who lived in my neighborhood. My community. What's more I found I had a lot to add to the conversation and provide. There's something healing about not only gathering to express rage at a broken system but to actively seek solutions and change. I don't know how many will realistically come to fruition but I sure can go to local businesses and ask them to hand out flyers as well as use my knowledge of media and marketing. I left feeling refreshed in a way I haven't in a long time. Sometimes you need to simply zoom out from the bigger picture and focus on your local community. I can't single handedly take down the government but I can possibly change my city.
If you're an anarchist/commie/socialist trapped in mental philosophical doom scrolling go and serve the people around you. We have to be the change we want.
(oh and one Elderly Lady asked me if I was apart of an underground graffiti society in the city and I thought that was very cool of her. She is apparently a member)

my brother watches yellowjackets with me, and when he saw a fairly accurate placenta on screen, he actually gagged and said he was going to throw up.
and i just kind of chuckled, and he was like what is it??
and i was like...if you'd ever had a period...you'd know this really isn't that big a deal. that kind of shit comes out on the regular.
and the look of horror he gave me was hysterical.
women and people with vaginas are so metal, y'all.
you just do that shit sometimes, and it's like nothing to you.
warriors.

Did hrpf escape containment again? I keep seeing people posting about it but no actual information - 🦃
I think ppl are concerned that due to booktokers acting out and the very thin line between hockey booktok and hrpf generally, there is a chance that it will escape containment again in a big way. (Check the post I reblogged with the TikTok screencap, on mobile sorry 😩) Particularly due to the SEA socmed team apparently having zero common sense, I think there is a fear that it is a little more permanently about to be out in the open this time.
(My personal opinion is that while there's been a slow but enormous erosion of boundaries btwn hockey fandom (broadly, not just hrpf) and hockey teams over the years, so many of the teams' socmed and pr teams have people on staff who came out of fandom, so as long as they are operating with some common sense (deeply debatable ofc, see Seattle socmed team and the Barracuda admin this year, and 2017-2019 Avs admin), it's mostly the kind of thing that happens cyclically and blows over after a while. Like obviously it sucks so much for hrpf to escape containment and does a lot of damage in a number of ways and a lot of fans lose their enjoyment of fandom bc of it, but it does always seem to blow over after a couple of weeks in my experience.)

"Why do we need pride?" "Homophobia only exists in certain other countries nowadays."
Teens and twenty-somethings are all over the internet are complaining about a gay couple kissing at midnight on new year's eve. We still have plenty of work to do.
