not to be true crime posting on main but i think i'm falling down the wm3 rabbit hole again
#xenia.txt#when i tell you this case keeps me up at night to this day#not even the murders themselves as much as the general public's reception to and opinions on the case 3 decades later like#i get why it;s always been so divisive especially after the pl docus came out (lots of opinions on those btw none of them are good#from the bottom of my heart fuck you joe berlinger and bruce sinofsky)#but it's truly baffling how no one is willing to do the research on what is arguably THE most well documented true crime case in recent#history like. everything that's ever been released to the general public is available online and i mean everything#you can find all the court files trial transcripts depositions interogation tapes aerial photos you name it it's out there for anyone with#internet connection to access at any and all hours of the day#and yet people are still foaming at the mouth fighting on reddit abt their innocence based off nothing but a couple of movies like#bffr with me right now!! almost every point the innocenters make can be easily debunked by scrolling through callahan for 15 minutes#'but they've been pushing for dna testing since their release so they can't be guilty' baby the case is closed!#it's been closed the second they took the plea. they can be striking under that courthouse and it still won't change a thing and they knowi#that's why they're pushing for it in the first place but that's just my opinion#^ and i say they but it's really only echols which makes a lot of sense to me personally#and if you want to talk abt dna testing let's talk abt the one that was done in 2011 and how the defense hurried to propose the plea as soo#as they got the results! let's talk abt those cause no one's ever seen them and i would very much like to#braga share the results the people want to know!!#makes me wonder which pieces of evidence they even submitted for that 2011 testing because if i'm remembering correctly#there was one that would've closed this case instantly and maybe that's why the results were never disclosed and the plea was rushed#but that's also just my opinion#and it's also interesting how the majority of people who have in fact deep dived into this case#(and i'm not talking abt big true crime youtubers as i'm very sceptical abt their research abilities)#all collectively lean towards guilty. much to think about#i was hoping someone would make another ~actually~ unbiased documentary for the 30th anniversary and go over all the case files#but i don't think that's even realistic at this point seeing as everyone and their mother has some sort of an opinion on this case#hbo deserves another lawsuit for this. they should've never won the first one in the first place#true crime tw

There are so many reasonable and accurate criticisms that can be leveled against Israel. Violation of the Geneva Convention IV, Article 33. Holding Palestinians accused of violent crime under administrative detention instead of giving them fair trials. Netanyahu smuggling millions of dollars in suitcases to a terrorist organization in order to perpetuate the cycle of violence and death.
So why is it that all I ever see are people posting blatant misinformation about Israeli society and Jewish history. I’ve seen people say “DNA tests are illegal in Israel because they don’t want you to know they’re all secretly Khazars” about three dozen times in the last two months. Finding an actual fucking news report about the actual fucking suffering caused by the Israeli government’s actions isn’t hard, so why default to lies and debunked conspiracy theories?
There’s no fucking reason to believe what you see on tiktok or twitter over that you see on the BBC or Reuters or the AP. The incompetence is so great that I think it has to be weaponized at this point.

Random fluffy blurb of Bucky helping the reader with her breast-pumping routine.
i have never been pregnant so i'm sorry for the incorrect terminology and such but...
Hear me out, like, she supposed to breast pump her milk like every couple of hours which means she needs to wake up in the middle of the night too.
But that ain't happening today when her precious 3 months old baby caught a fever and has been crying all day, feeling discomfort and unable to sleep. To make it worst, Bucky's not there to help. He was supposed to be home yesterday, but he was on a mission and the jet he flew on had some kind of technical issues.
Now, he was stuck in somewhere in Europe.
As a new mom, she was still clumsy and unfamiliar with taking care of a baby. Much less a sick one at that. She had been anxious the whole day, worrying if what she was doing was helping the baby at all. When the her precious little one keeps wailing on and on, she couldn't help but to cry as well. She felt helpless; somehow incompetent.
Bucky on the other hand, begs to differ, and he keeps on reassuring her through their video call. Saying that she's doing great and that he was proud of her for holding her grounds so well.
He promised that he'll be home soon.
And soon it was, when Bucky quietly slipped into their apartment at around 2am in the morning. Judging how calm it was, he assumed that his wife and baby was asleep.
So, he took the liberty to clean up for a bit. He could see the traces of chaos and panic left behind from y/n's attempt to take care of the baby; it made Bucky wished that he had never gone to the mission.
After tossing the dirty baby clothes in the washing machine, putting away the half eaten sandwich, and propped the dishes in the dishwasher, he decided to check on y/n first before visiting his poor, sick baby.
But turns out he didn't have to; not when he saw his little bundle was joy sleeping on his bed with y/n curled soundly beside her. His two best girls. Bucky's chest swelled with utter joy and indescribable pride just by looking at them.
While he revelled at the view, the light popped up from the screen of y/n's phone caught his attention. It was an alarm to remind herself to pump her milk. Good thing, Bucky managed to slide the alarm off before the sound become louder, or else the baby will wake up for sure.
Sometimes, Bucky thinks that his little one seemed to get his super soldier hearing ability from him; even though Banner debunked his speculations with the DNA test results that stated that his baby did not have, not even a drop of the super serum, in her blood.
Good thing that Bucky had showered and cleaned up before he flew home. He just had to stripped into his sleepwear and went straight to plant multiple of light kisses on his daughter's chubby cheeks and tiny hands. Satisfied, he made his way around and out to grab the breast pump kit. He placed it on the night stand next to y/n's side and started to prepare it.
Though he was planning not to wake y/n up and help her with the pumping, it was as if her body remembered the schedule. She stirred even before Bucky touched her and her eyes squinted upon awaken.
"Hey, sweetheart." Bucky whispered lovingly. He took the opportunity of her moving around, to lift her up a little, just enough for him slip behind her on the bed. She whined and hummed as he positioned her body to lay on him as his back leaned his back to the headboard.
Bucky firmly pull her back against his chest when she spoke, "Hi, Bucky. When did you get home?" Her voice was hoarse, but quiet enough to make it sound soft.
Bucky wrapped his arm around her waist, slighty squeezing her when he kissed her cheek, "Just now." His lips travelled to her jaw, "I missed you so much, doll. And our baby." She smiled before replying that they missed him too.
Relishing in his pampering touch, she let out a sigh before declaring that she has to get up. Bucky didn't budge at all, let alone letting her move. She claimed that she needed to pump her milk, since she barely got to do it today; but, if her eyes was not as heavy as they were, she would've see that Bucky had it all prepared.
Her heart burst with appreciation as she thanked him; she wondered what has she done to deserve such a thoughtful husband; preparing her breast pump kit so she didn't have to leave the bed and all. But what she didn't know was Bucky didn't even want her to lift a finger.
"I got you, mama." He whispered as his fingers traces the button of her pyjama shirt. He popped it off one by one, slowly revealing her covered chest while his mouth never stopped spewing the sweetest things in her ears.
He undid the front hook of her bra, letting her soft heavy breasts spill out of it's confinement. She let out a shuddered moan when his hand went up and gave a gentle squeeze on boobs. Bucky chuckled lovingly when she almost gasped when he rolled her nipples in between his fingers.
After getting an annoyed growl from her, Bucky swiftly went back to his original objective as he placed the cups on each side of nipples and let the machine do its thing.
And after such a long day of self-induced stress, y/n simply melts into a puddle of pleasure and relief as her husband pampered her with praises and gentle kisses.
"Thank you, sweetheart. For giving birth to our baby, for taking care of her."
"You're such a good mama."
"I couldn't ask for more."
"I'm so proud of you."
Every kiss felt as if Bucky was kissing something so delicate and precious; his soft lips travelled from the back of her ear, along her neckline, her shoulders and back again to the crook of her neck.
She leaned back to get closer, even if there was no space in between them, wanting more of his lips, his touch. Wait. Why is he not wrapping his arms around her? She peeked down to see both of his hands were occupied on holding the pumps, "Y'know Bucky, you don't need to hold it all the time." She reminded him.
He was well aware that there was a bra that can hold the cups in place but he refused to use it.
First of all, he loves her boobs.
They're absolutely fantastic, absoultely phenomenal. So why would he want to let the bra be the cockblocker from letting him see them?
And, he also knew that she hates to wear bras, the only reason she wears them now were mostly because her milk keeps leaking out. So any chance to have her boobs out, Bucky would take it. Besides, he absolutely has plans to do after he finished pumping her.
"I know, mama. But, this is easier." He said.
y/n titled her head back to peek a look at her husband, "Easier?"
Bucky's lips curved into his signature smirk before he hummed, "Yes. Easier for daddy suck on your sweet nipples later."

Ooh my brain accidentally read electro kink as us putting tweels in shock collars

ANON U MIGHT BE ON TO SOMETHING...
being a researcher and having 2 eel mers in captivity...it's so rare for two of them to be in the same area without fighting each other to death- perhaps they're siblings? dna testing confirms it.
it's a rare opportunity for you to be able to study and compare the behaviors of eel mers- much less ones who came from the same clutch!! it's practically a boon of data; only a fool wouldn't take advantage of this.
at first, you just observe their behaviors with live food and stimuli. nothing interesting really comes out of it besides how the eels seem to look at you with a a mix of odd fascination and disdain. surely this isn't the extent of human knowledge...
eventually, you try sending a light electrical current through the water- nothing that should harm them, just a faint tickling sensation. that has their attention. are you intending to play with them, human? the one you named jade seems to be particularly interested, swimming up to where you stand, tapping a clawed hand at the glass that separates you. he doesn't seem discomforted. rather, he seems aroused. (although frankly, the mating rituals and mating of eel mers in general isn't well studied.) you brush it off as you anthropomorphizing the eel mer, and simply note a higher spike in activity from the eel mers following the currents.
yet no matter what you do afterwards- even feeding floyd his favorite live prey- nothing elicits the same reaction. surely this calls for a repeat of the prior experiment? this time, you raise the voltage ever so slightly.
the reaction is immediate. both eel mers begin to move in an odd sort of dance in their respective territories, their expressions fierce. after some time, floyd begins to claw at the the entrance of his favorite hiding spot. jade circles one of the coral decorations, rubbing against the rough surface so tightly that you see traces of blood dissipate in the water.
never has an event like this been recorded before. you can feel the scientific community clamoring over this breakthrough- the elusive eel mer's mating habits finally debunked after years of speculation....
you must find out more.

Bigots into racial purity are keen on proving that with science (also water is wet), but a lot of times DNA tests do more to debunk than support that ideology, if you look at what they actually show.
I'm white as white can be, all my ancestry as far back as anyone can trace it is from Europe (and the Mormon side of the family has traced one line back to the *middle ages*, it's insane how far back we go with everyone being a British peasant).
But my paternal haplogroup is from North Africa. Most people with that haplogroup are from modern day Egypt and Sudan, with a much smaller population in Greece and Italy, and my paternal third great grandfather was Italian. What the science seems to indicate is that I, with my blonde hair and fair skin and hundreds of years of documented European ancestry, am descended from an African man who entered Europe during the Roman Empire. Most people in the US who share my paternal haplogroup are African Americans. We share an unimaginably distant grandfather who came along well after homo sapiens spread out of Africa.
That's so far back that it's completely meaningless to my identity, but that's the science proving that you cannot tell by looking, that racial purity is a myth, that whatever features we have and whatever cultures we're part of today, we all go back to shared ancestors who are just plain human.

Not sure if you know this but Robert Pattison and his fiancée Suki had a baby girl and this is what his fans are saying:
https://x.com/robsjaw/status/1772613645324726677?s=46 they want him to do a DNA test to confirm the baby is his daughter, they also were here on Tumblr talking about how she cheated on him (lies) and got pregnant by someone else to then say she was wearing a fake bump.
Since the cheating allegations didn’t work here they are now complaining about Rob and Suki having a walk with their baby https://x.com/itkjs/status/1772611098434236690?s=46
The Captregina from our fandom https://x.com/robsjaw/status/1772615849360208081?s=46 always thinking they are right when in reality they are very wrong 😂 more of her delusion https://x.com/robsjaw/status/1772608712139579441?s=46
https://x.com/robsjaw/status/1770113979316105476?s=46
They also call Suki a whore, a escort, fatphobic, racist and leech (nothing new to you)
What I mean with all of this? That this behavior from the Velcro Crew and everyone who thinks it’s PR won’t change and will once gets worse once Chris and his wife have kids if that’s what they want, my advice take this as an entertainment from the delulus, don’t even feel bad for them bc no one is forcing them to be chronically online and jealous of a woman getting married to their “Chrissy” (that’s so cringey oh lord) anyway I love how you and some other blogs debunks their lies 💜
Ok I am flabbergasted 🤯
First because of all the bullshit and hate this person is spewing but also because the similarities with the crazies of our fandom. One of them in particular. 🤮

*sighs a deep sigh*
Racism does not come from genetic or evolutionary science.
At this point I don't expect anyone to listen. I mean, partly because it's me, but also because the online Left has collectively decided that Genetics Is The Enemy.
"Scientific" racism predates Charles Darwin and Gregor Mendel; the theory as we know it, with its "Aryan master-race" and so on, came from a guy called Joseph Arthur de Gobineau, who made it up out of materials he derived from historical linguistics. That's right, from the Humanities. Not the Sciences at all, let alone genetics.
Modern genetic science was what finally buried the last shred of Gobineau's scientific credibility. We have genetics to thank for the insight that race is a social construct.
I mean, not exclusively genetics; some anthropologists had been saying it for decades before. But genetics was what clinched it.
Here in the Pacific, in the mid-20th century, there was a complicated tangle of theories about where Pacific Island people's ancestors had come from. On the one hand, archaeology and linguistics and oral history seemed to indicate a series of successive migrations from a Melanesian hub out to more and more distant island groups. On the other, race science said that the Polynesians and Micronesians, who were relatively light-skinned and "noble" looking, couldn't be closely related to the dark-skinned Melanesians; they must have come by another route from India or somewhere.
Even here in New Zealand, the Moriori people of the Chatham Islands were theorized to be the remnant of a Melanesian ethnic group who had lived in mainland Aotearoa before being exterminated by the later-arriving Polynesian Māori.
(This theory was spread to a generation of New Zealand schoolchildren after it had been debunked, but that's another story. In case you're wondering, the first people to live here were, beyond any shadow of scientific doubt, Māori.)
Then DNA testing came along, and confirmed the story told by archaeology and linguistics and oral history, leaving the racial theory of separate origins on the scrapheap. Here as elsewhere, you got a clear, coherent story from your analysis if you weighted all "racial" factors at 0.
The Nazis never heard of DNA. I'm sure they would have been eager to use it to prove their theories if they had, but they would have been, to put it mildly, disappointed, and they would have silenced their genetic researchers with extreme prejudice before they could tell the world the truth.
But none of that is going to matter. Genetics Is The Enemy, regardless of whether it has actually done anything bad.

You know Shaz the tkkers issues is not a laughing matter. I mean how stupid can one be, at this point it's either they are really stupid or they're acting stupid. Not only did GCF in Tokyo made them have sleepless nights when it was released because it was their worst nightmare they've now decided to come with a different narrative which makes absolutely no sense like I get that they are beyond delulu but I didn't think they would be schizophrenic.
I done wasted my prayers not even god can help them at this point. Watch how miss Jennie will come out preggos( in future) and they will demand a DNA test smh
In other great news Minimoni isn't the only ship being debunked. Vmin, got debunked as well ☺Vmin is under

hellp, is the claim made in 2011 by the Swiss company IGENEA that king Tut's DNA is a 99.6% match with western European Y chromosomes accurate? I've tried to find it but I've never got that it has been "proved" or "debunked"
lmao look their website literally says:
"In 2009, extensive DNA tests were performed on Tutankhamun's mummy and other members of his family. However, these were only partially published in February 2010. The results of the Y-DNA test have been kept under wraps despite several requests.
With the help of a Discovery Channel recording, iGENEA has now succeeded in reconstructing the Y-DNA profile of Tutankhamun, his father Akhenaten and his grandfather Amenophis III."
So they're saying "hey we pretend that we know Tut's haplotype now lollol" and it's apparently Haplo-group R-M269.
50% of male Europeans have that. So are they directly related to Tut?
Weeeelllll NO. Turns out this Haplo-group emerged around 7500 years BC in Eastern Europe. So obviously half of Europe now has that Haplo-group. Nothing to do with Tut. Also his kids (daughters who couldn't even have passed on that Haplo-type) died really young
Now, the fact that (they think) Tut had that Haplo-group is a bit special, because only like 1% or Egyptians had that, but then again Egypt had some nice trade contacts to Eastern Europe (see: the Hittite empire, the Amarna Letters, etc). So maybe his dad's dad's dad's dad or smth was imported from there.
Kinda like my own great grandfather, who was imported from Swabia after all the men in great gran's village (in Bavaria) died in WW1...

Hello! I’ve had these three fellas for a decent amount of time. With Pourquoi the Pierrot there having been under my care for well over a year, the spiffy white ringleader lookin’ guy (who’s name is Dionysus) for maybe half a year, and Leeroy the gentlemanly looking red nosed clown for a good four months now. In spite of being a little mismatched they’ve all become the best of friends! I love watching their dynamics play out in their various acts that they put on for me, it’s so unlike anything I’d ever seen before! I believe they are happy and well cared for in my home (happy, well nourished, and they all seem to find good enrichment in one another’s company) but I want to be able to provide the best care possible! And to do that, I need to know a bit more about their breeds I believe. If you wouldn’t mind, I would LOVE a physical evaluation of them from you to see if there’s any surprises on my end. Pourquoi is a very tall clown, unusually so for a Pierrot, and he is also prone to staring and sneaking around. Is there perhaps some scare clown in his lineage that you can see in his appearance? Dionysus is small, but not so small that I would think of him as having any teacup in him. Leeroy is decently tall, but not so gigantesque as Pourquoi is. If there’s anything you can confirm or debunk, I’d love to know!
Ah! What a unique bunch! I am more knowledgeable on teacup clowns, and as always I’d like to remind everyone I am not a veterinarian, but I am always open to give some insight on clowns.
So, you say Pourquoi tends to sneak around and stare? That does sound like scare tendencies. I can’t see anything uniquely scare about his appearance, but that doesn’t rule out scare lineage. The thing that does stick out about him to me is the flowers on his collar. Traditional Pierrot don’t have floral accents as far as I know, so he probably has some other breed in his dna. Scare clowns are extremely diverse in appearance so they could very possibly be from that. (Flowers can appear in other breeds, which is why I don’t consider floral accents uniquely scare clownish.) Pierrot and scares both require meat in their diets, although scares typically require more. I would check the sharpness of his teeth, scares usually have sharper teeth than Pierrot. If you reference some images of pure bred Pierrot teeth and his seem noticeably sharper, he probably does indeed have some scare clown lineage. As long as no problems are coming up, I’d continue his care as normal and I don’t think he needs immediate dna testing. Perhaps buy a chew toy for him to try out, (these are a favorite of scares) and offer some more meat based snacks. If he doesn’t have a dark spot to retreat to, you may want to build one, scares like to have the option of quiet time and darkness. He seems very happy and healthy!
Dionysus is definitely of ring leader descent, I agree. He also seems to be a porcelain clown, based on appearance. Leeroy also looks to be porcelain. I think he’s probably a mix of ring leader and fool. None of their colors or patterns seem much like a party clown’s. (which is the most common breed of clown) Care for porcelain clowns is pretty simple, they need lots of sugar to maintain their exoskeleton, and some sugarwater or syrup like you would put out for butterflies or hummingbirds.
Overall you seem to be doing a great job and are very diligent about caring for them.
Best wishes to you and your little troupe!

Well if those kids are bastards then Greens can and should use the blacks' argument that, in fact, they aren't because their legal father Aegon claimed them as his own like Laenor did so...where's the problem? If they can do it we can do it too!
if no one can even prove they're not bastards and no one is even tabling an accusation of the sort (bc they would have 0 evidence), there's no need to do that. just lie through your teeth, it's not like they won't believe you or have a scientific method of contradicting you. there's no DNA testing in westeros. it's not comparable to rhaenyra's situation bc she clowned so hard the evidence of her transgressions was written on the very faces of her three very-much-not-velaryon-looking children.
had she chosen one of laenor's cousins as her paramour and was discreet about it, there would have been no need for this circus in the first place
with ofc the caveat that JUST having bastards wasn't her only legal problem, as well- and carefully- documented by me, your resident rhaenyra debunker :))

I think the theory is that Brenner used Henry's DNA to give the kids powers, not that he made Henry sleep with El's mom. But I'm sure that, if Will and El are actually twins and the Wheelers are connected to the Creels, the writers would never make Will Henry's son or something. That would be bad, really bad.
I prefer found family to biological family, but I don't write the story, so... I just hope that the characters remember what they've been through, or they'll be fundamentally different. Like, if Will's dad is Hopper and not that homohope, that changes everything. For Jonathan too. But I'm sure the Duffers know what they're doing
That is a possibility! Though I'm not sure how that would work with the other kids?
From what I understand, the test subjects were discovered all over the world, based on suspicions of them having powers already? Kali was literally kidnapped all the way from London. That almost seems like too much trouble if we're assuming these kids had zero powers initially and with the plan being to just implant them with Henry' powers AFTER they were kidnapped? From what it looked like, Henry himself was also implanted with some stuff by Brenner the moment he got there? So I always thought it had more to do with them finding people they were suspicious of having powers already, and then experimenting on them?
Honestly, I don't think Henry is the only one out of everyone in this universe to have powers, only for him to have passed it down to the others? That would feel kind of cheap, especially bc it's implied that him and the others experiences could have played a part in them being chosen, and perhaps gaining their powers at a certain point based on those experiences, followed by enhancing/improving them with various means at the lab.
When it comes to Henry in general, there are so many unanswered questions! Did he have his powers since birth? Did he gain them from certain experiences?
I also think that the reason why Will and El could be so unique in comparison to the other kids, is that Joyce and Hopper themselves are unique.
Joyce is said to have a history of serious mental health issues in the past, according to Jonathan (she's also referred to being crazy a lot by herself and others throughout the show). And then when it comes to Hopper, he fought in Vietnam, which means there are some radiation implications, (which is believed to have caused his daughters cancer). Radiation is often used as a device in comic books to explain why people were born with powers... That combined with Joyce's history could make for some powerful twins at the time they were conceived (it would also explain why Will/El have powers, but Jonathan doesn't, assuming Will and El weren't born until after Hopper returned from Vietnam).
Right now it's just hard to even speculate bc there's so many unanswered question about Henry's history. We know he talked about being prodded BEFORE he even went to Hawkins Lab, and there was quite a bit of subtext it might have been connected to conversion therapy.
The lab iteslf is also said to be doing experimentation on people with drugs and various other methods, so I think it's less them having this magic dna belonging to Henry and using it on all the others, and more so probably finding out different things after experimenting on Henry first, and using it as a framework for how to do the same to other kids that have been reported to have powers or experiences that warrant them being kidnapped and experimented on.
I am excited for the play though because I think it's going to answer a lot of questions about Joyce and Hoppers history, as well as Henry being linked to them at all way back then? Like how tf will that even look? Kind of scared just thinking about it, but I am looking forward to getting some more information about what is truly going on, so that I can either completely debunk certain assumptions I have or confirm them!

Ok, so I watched 2nd part of Racules special with subtitles...
So anyway, I used to have this theory that the Racules that we have now is actually a Bugnarok in disguise, but it was debunked because of the DNA test in episode 5...
So apparently, there is a Bugnarok (or maybe it wasn't a Bugnarok but sth else? Since Rita mentioned there was DNA that was neither human nor Bugnarok. A 3rd faction?) that can merge with other people's bodies... What if it's some sort of parasite life form... and there are more of them?
What if there aren't 2 Raculeses, but just one but he's controlled by the bug? I wonder if he can somewhat resist the control? Would explain why Racules wouldn't be sure whether Gira is still alive, despite missing his vitals or want him dead in one situation but keep him alive in other
Hell, what is that parasitic lifeform can also take over Bugnarok bodies? What if Kamejim is also controlled by that thing? And that same thing controls Boshimar, that's why he had the same hand gesture and we thought he is Kamejim?
If that's the case, I wish that Racules has some control over himself, otherwise the Racules that we knew this whole time would be just this parasite, which would be kinda sad
Anyway, my baby didn't just turn himself in for no reason. He did it because he had a plan. It really shows his tactical skills. Another thing is that it appears that while he was still kind of an ass, he had rather good relations with Rita or N'kosopa, I guess? Still doing everything himself, though. Idk, this man is an enigma and I love him so much for this (among other things)
Also, King Ohger ZERO has got some moves, ngl, can't wait for it to show up in the regular series
Also also, I guess the OhgerCalibur ZERO is the thing that will get the Caucasus Kabuto Castle running, so I guess it suggests that, despite being deemed the Worst King of Shugoddom in the future, Racules will help in forming final mecha (unless Gira will end up dual wielding, that is) so he might get a happy ending (I don't want him to end up as a goody-two-shoes, though. Let him remain an ass, but on the good guys' side, so he remains alive and not jailed)

CHAPTER 6 FIELDWORK
My name is Tashya Anderson and my name was originated from my mothers. Her name is Tashonna. From the best of my knowledge both my mother and father are simply just Black Americans. I was born and raised in Camden, NJ. I come from a big family but a single parent household that consist of I, my mom and my little brother. I do want to add that I do have a sister (not by blood.). My mom had me at 19 and ever since then she's always told me she knew she had to work harder in life. My mother is my rock. She has honestly made so many sacrifices for me and I love her for that. She deserves the world and the most I would like to do for her is make her proud and give her an unimaginable life when she's old lol. My dad isn't in my life and it's honestly a touchy subject I tend to avoid to talking about.

Moving along, on a piece of paper I identify myself as African American/ Black because it's usually the only option us black Americans have in society. The point I'm trying to make is that us African Americans can become disconnected from our roots. I could honestly be Nigerian or Jamaican and not even know because of my family not educating themselves. This is why sometime this year I would like to start an Ancestry account or even maybe take a DNA swab test kit that can tell me where my ancestors originated from. For the most part I know that for many generations my family has been in America for decades. We're just regular Black Americans with no known history of original ethnicity. Sometimes I wish I had something to rep like hispanics, French, or other ethnicities. I only say this because I would honestly take much pride in doing so. I would love to have some time of pride for where I come from. Not debunking the fact that I am an American citizen just wish I had some type of gratification for my culture.

The pictures I included our MY FAMILY. The ones I love the most! I can admit that I am very fortunate to have a huge supportive, loving family!! My family values the traits of being their for each other, acceptance, and most importantly unconditional love!! My friends tend to compliment me for having this as well. It never really occurred to me how common it is for people to not come from super supportive, loving families until I got older. Family means everything to me and more.
