Number one best character trait you can give to any character is profound kindness. Number two is huge bitch. Number 3 is dumb of ass. They should all be the same person.

i know people are good because of this: the universe often assigns me side quests. in a circular strangeness; despite my inability to locate my-own-anything, i am almost-always finding someone else’s lost things. dogs, coats, phones, cash, laptops. it happens so often it’s almost tiring; suddenly being looped into a tiny amount of detective work.

but when i’m with other people who are not used to this: the response is almost invariably delight. yes, maybe they are simply thrilled by the mystery. it’s just… they light up so much. i think maybe more… i think they like the opportunity to do something kind.

a few weeks ago, i was at a bar and i found a wallet as soon as we stepped outside. i felt nervous to ask for help, worried i would be holding up the night. i picked it up and said go on without me, i should help this get back to its home.

instead, three people pulled out their phones - to find him on facebook, to help cancel his credit cards. two people went back into the bar to tell the bartender, two others went calling down the street. group texts, facebook posts, instagram stories. people, without even seeing what happened, start offering help to me. fifteen minutes and: someone knows someone who knows the guy. the cheer that went up - just for finding him, just for this small thing. someone gets him on the phone. strangers dance around me, hopping on their feet - are you the girl that found that wallet? good for you, that’s a good thing you’re doing/same thing happened to me and somebody did what you’re doing and i thank god everyday for people like you/i can’t believe you found him so fast this is so exciting

i gave it back to him in a parking lot. i watched his shoulders sag with relief. there was cash in it still - he checked the pocket, and then sheepishly held the money out to me. i didn’t take it. i held up my hands. “it’s no problem, man. i know you’d do the same for me.”

i don’t know him, to be honest. i don’t know if he is the same kind of person i am. but he nodded at me.

and i know people are good. i know people are good, because the way this story ends isn’t surprising. we wave goodbye awkwardly. my friend loops their arm around me.

“i can’t believe we got it back to him,” they said. “i’m going to be riding that high for weeks.”

"how do you know your friends don't secretly hate you/find you annoying" baby i've said things in discord servers that would make any other human being get a restraining order and move countries to never encounter my presence on this earth again, and they haven't even blocked me

Deeply deeply perverse watching US reporters and politicians praise Ukrainians for resisting Russian troop advancement. Not because they shouldn't but because of how complicit the US has been in portraying any act of Palestinian resistance to occupation; even as small as a child throwing a rock, as justification for that child and their family being massacred by the IDF. remember this the next time Palestine manages to make it into American news. Remember this if Yemen ever makes into the news.

African students fleeing Ukraine aren’t being allowed into Poland or are being met with difficulty. There is a literal war and white people are being racist as hell, still. There is absolutely nothing that can excuse or explain that.
