Funny how true crime YouTubers always seem to forget to mention the race of indigenous women who are / went missing despite the fact that’s the demographic most likely to go missing or be abducted in many parts of America. Almost like they’re racist or something
#.txt#it frustrates me to no end to hear about a horrible tragedy#and then learn from the COMMENTS that the reason police didn’t investigate is because it was an indigenous woman#people LOVEEE to harp on cops who do bad investigations but can’t seem to associate bad investigating with the victim not being white#ESPECIALLY indigenous victims#they don’t even mention it when talking about the investigation despite how damning of a pattern it is#‘the Fargo police failed to investigate these people properly because the person who went missing was an indigenous women and often they do#not get properly investigated’#only ONE youtuber (missing enigma who isn’t even true crime) has ever mentioned it and made it a core part of his video#he interviewed the family members and their stories are horrifi.#police coming to watch them search for their daughter but not helping. sitting in a parking lot across the street just waiting and watching#it’s absolutely disgusting and the shallow research so many of these people do lead them to severely misunderstand the case they’re talking#about#and then they go ‘wow so weird how the police completely fucked up and almost let the perps get away’#like it’s just random bad luck striking the department#(which sure maybe contributes to it sometimes as it does to many cases. but a pattern is a pattern and the numbers don’t lie.)

Actually I've been watching the latest season of Fargo which is mostly about misogyny and it's various forms, and I've been wondering if it's been too direct or hamfisted about it's messaging. I think after watching this movie the answer is "no."
I saw Barbie today and It’s fine, doesn’t live up to hype at all for me. Extremely hamfisted, shallow, babies first feminist message. Doesn’t seem to be interested in exploring anything deeper. The girl calls Barbie out when she first meets her for all the reductive views of women she represents and this never gets explored! The image of womanhood and femininity it represents is narrow and alienating for someone like me. White feminism basically.
IDK I guess it’s fine for preteens who are first being introduced to feminist thought, I probably would have liked it more at 11. But… can’t we do better than that now?
#My main criticisms with the latest season of Fargo is that it does not seem to know what to do about cops anymore#like the villain is a sheriff that has militarized his police department and gives guns to his alt right militia#but two of the supporting characters are good cops trying to help the protagonist#One of those said cops said in an aside “had to help with evictions. Protecting and serving /s”#and it's like yeah... that's what cops do most of the time instead of being embroiled in plots to help a kidnapped woman#I don't think Fargo can abandoned “the cop” character but it is interesting to see how they try to play both sides#my other criticism is that I am still not sure what to make of the weird dream cult episode

Help protect Weelaunee Forest and stop the construction of cop city!
There was a conference last night for the Stop Cop City week of solidarity coming up February 19th-26th.
The main takeaway is that if people are interested in taking action, the best thing to do would be to target the construction company that the police have contracted, the funders of the project, and the insurance company insuring the project. The cops are the ones who want cop city built, but they can't do it without the groups mentioned above.
The construction company is Brasfield and Gorrie. My understanding is the company itself probably won't turn a huge profit from the project and is mostly doing it to strengthen relations with the police. If we can show them they will lose money from this project they may pull out. One way to show them how unprofitable this venture would be for them is to make it harder for them to complete other projects they're working on. One suggestion from the conference is that those who live near construction projects being done by Brasfield and Gorrie could try to obstruct progress on these projects to show there will be repercussions if they don't pull out of cop city.
The main funders of the project are big banks and corporations. I've included a link at the bottom with more details but some of the groups funding this are Wells Fargo, Bank of America, Target, Home Depot, and Chik-fil-a. The Atlanta Police Foundation is also helping fund and support the project. Below I've linked a map that shows the locations of these funders and offices of members of the Atlanta Police Foundation.
The insurance company signed onto the cop city project is AXA. At the conference last night it was emphasized that AXA is the main target we want to go after during the upcoming week of solidarity. The destruction of the forest cannot continue without an insurance company covering them. I did a quick google search and was able to find several AXA offices near me. Like with Brasfield and Gorrie, if we put the pressure on AXA they will hopefully realize this project is simply not worth it and pull out.
This is a list of targets which includes a map of where these targets are located throughout the US. There is also a list of actions that people can take, but be creative.
Nobody wants cop city except the police and corporations. Let's help save the Weelaunee Forest!

Co-workers in the article blamed security for not finding her sooner, yet...
They noticed a foul smell from her cubicle's location. No one bothered to visit her until Tuesday. So then they blamed remote work for reducing the number of people working on that floor... who walked past that location daily.

Gator Tillman x fem reader headcanons
NSFW included some fluff and mutual pining.
Just some simple head canons of fem! reader and Gator Tillman (Fargo season 5) and their life together. (Spoiler-free)
I belong to you
Word count: 1,586 words
Ao3 link for the headcanons
-Gator and you met when you started working at the station. It was lust at first sight.
-He loved striking up conversations with you about anything just to talk because you mesmerized him.
-When you exchanged numbers he would call you at random times just to tell you how you were on his mind, that he was thinking about you.
-On any given weekday he would send you chocolates or flowers just because.
-When you worked until late at night he would make sure you got home safely by driving you home, especially during the cold and long winter nights.
-One random weekend he would just show up at your house unannounced spying on you from outside your bathroom and bedroom window with binoculars.
-For a while, he would play this game with you in the shadows. Unbeknownst to him you knew he was watching you and you put on a show for him.
-When his secret was out and you confronted him about it you decided to make things more official. A proper date was set up and you went out.
-The date was pretty special to both of you. You had the dinner reserved for a special dinner just the two of you. After you did some stargazing.
-Back at your place you enjoyed some drinks by the fireplace and had a shower together.
-The sex was mind-blowing, to say the least. You had wild and kinky sex whenever possible. On the kitchen table, on the couch, a faux fur rug by the fireplace, in his police car, at work on your desk, in his office against the wall, in the shower, the hot tub jacuzzi.
-You opened him up to new things since he was pretty sexually inexperienced. He loved to please you more than any other partner. He loved to do that special thing with his tongue that drove you crazy.
-Besides being a natural at eating you out, Gator loved it when you rode him and tied him up, blindfolded him, and restrained him.
-The Kama Sutra became a kink book you frequently referenced and used for new positions.
-You would roleplay the cop completely in uniform and Gator the criminal. This would lead to you handcuffing him and riding him for several rounds until he begged for mercy.
-You had started sneaking into his house wearing a Sally from the Nightmare Before Christmas mask and he would end up wearing his Jack Skellington mask and you would fuck the night away.
-Long nights by the fireplace just talking with some red wine was a great way to unwind with him. Gator told you so much about his life growing up and being the son of Roy Tillman.
-Gator just loved to be with you and do anything with you. Everything together was fun and you loved the way he looked at you.
-Everything about him was sexy even the way he vaped. Something about him smoking was just alluring to you.
-During the holidays you would decorate together especially for Halloween because it was one of his favorite holidays.
-You go all out with the Christmas lights during the wintertime and have spiked hot chocolate. Gator puts up all the outside house lights himself.
-It's a tradition to watch The Nightmare Before Christmas in December together while wearing your NBC masks.
-Eventually, Gators posters of naked women were taken down and replaced by sexy pictures of you. When he saw it he masturbated to it and told you.
-You rewarded Gator by giving him the occasional nude Polaroid and putting them in random places like his bathroom, kitchen, car, his desk.
-Sex with him was never boring and he was far from vanilla most nights.
-When you got angry or Gator did, you had the craziest and wild, passionate sex.
-Car sex was one thing you both loved. It just felt so good to fuck with the smell of leather seats.
-Sometimes you would have a quickie in a semi-public space or give him a handjob under the table.
-Sometimes he would finger you in a restaurant under the table or use a control for your vibrating panties.
-There were so many toys you bought to enhance your sex life you even got a sex room.
-A custom-made fleshlight was made for Gator to use shaped like your pussy.
-A dildo was made from a mold of his cock you used whenever he wasn't around.
-On days off you would go with Gator for long car rides and give him road head or a handjob.
-Spontaneous trips with no real destination were romantic and you always managed to find something to do together.
-Gator loved your body and kissed every single inch. Letting you know just how special you are to him.
-Candles and incense were lit often especially when you took baths together or in the bedroom.
-Even though Gator loved to top, you could easily put him in his place to be submissive to you.
-Both of you brought out the kinkiest side in each other. It was fun to try new positions and so many toys.
-If either of you were blindfolded, you would put your trust in the other and use safe words if necessary. Sometimes it was gentle together, other times rough.
-When he got a promotion at work, you made sure to give him the best head which turned into 69'ing together.
-Gator would love most to push you face down and take you from behind as he slapped your ass.
-Eventually, you convinced him to let you peg him.
-He's obsessed with your breasts always grabbing them and playing with them, using them as pillows.
-Gator loves to sext with you getting each other riled up for later in the bedroom.
-He loves metal and rock n roll. He plays it a lot and makes sexy heavy metal playlists for you.
-No other woman managed to make him this happy and you were the only one for him.
-Being with Gator was all you wanted. He knew your desires, turn-offs, your favorite things, and even small things about you.
-With him, you were in good hands and you could trust him to serve, honor, and protect you.
-When he proposed it was on your 2nd anniversary at your favorite restaurant. Hearing you say yes brought so much joy to him.
-The day came to move in together and you settled upon a nice cozy cabin in the woods.
-It was decided you would get a dog together for protection. It was a black labrador and he was named Gator Jr.
-Eventually, you got matching tattoos on your shoulders of infinity symbols with two entwining hearts.
-You'd go to the local drive-in together and see the newest action or thriller movie or comedy. Sometimes they'd play classic movies and you would see a double feature.
-Most nights he would have a beer and you'd enjoy wine in the hot tub.
-You'd star gaze together and wish on shooting stars, even naming stars after each other.
-Gator planned on having a nice family and one that wasn’t like the broken home he had come from.
-Being a sheriff meant he was to protect the people but he was the most protective of you the love of his life.
-Each anniversary was better than the last and he would lavish you with massages and gifts.
-Gator felt like you were his whole world and didn't know what he would do without you.
-Gator loved your touch, your beauty, and he doted on you.
-The best and biggest diamond ring was given to you on your wedding day.
-Your wedding was small at the local courthouse and your honeymoon was in California.
-Soon you were pregnant with fraternal twins, a boy, and a girl.
-Pregnant sex with Gator was intense in a good way he'd love how big your breasts got and loved to have you on top riding him.
-Kissing him always felt so good and so right. You could just kiss for hours and hold each other not a care in the world.
-Gator would always give the best full body and foot massages especially when you were pregnant.
-Sex was different but in a good way during your pregnancy and your breasts got even bigger which he loved.
-The twins were delivered in October at the hospital with Gator by your side.
-For 2 months you both took time off work to be with your babies.
-The kids got an at-home caretaker part-time and you did more work from home.
-Life was so much better with your beautiful twins and they received so much love.
-Eventually, you moved the family across the country to Nevada where it was warmer and away from his past.
-The kids and you as well as Gator would do family costumes for Halloween. One year you were the Sally to his Jack, and the kids were Zero the dog.
-A scrapbook was made for the twins with so many keepsakes and memories and many pictures of them and the family.
-Family life and being a father was perfect for Gator. He loved everything about fatherhood.
-As your caring husband, he did whatever it took to protect you and the town was lucky to have someone like Gator.
-Every holiday was special and your family made your days so much better.
-Gator now had the best family he could ever ask for and he felt like the luckiest man alive.

Say it Ain't So Part One
Gator has to face the music when his girlfriend turns his world upside down.
manchild!gator tillman x teacher!reader TW: Pregnancy, canon-appropriate violence, possible Fargo S5 spoilers.
Liberty Elementary School saw a lot more police presence after your first date with Deputy Tillman.
It was strange at first to the rest of the squad when Mr. Kick-Ass-Take-Names volunteered to cover school drop-off and pick-up times; a cupcake duty usually reserved for cops nearing retirement. And Gator wasn't exactly known for his concern for the wellbeing of children. But after seeing him make googly eyes over the new kindergarten teacher in charge of the car line, it made a lot more sense.
Things started to get serious between the two of you after a few months of back and forth during car line duty. He'd stop by your classroom during lunchtime, where you'd have an identical lunch packed for him. He'd rattle off stories about his morning that were most likely embellished to make himself sound cool. Still, you'd listen intently, trying not to get lost in those brown baby cow eyes of his. He'd feign interest in your morning with the "ankle-biters" as he dubbed them before heading back to his patrol.
You were keenly aware of the Tillmans' reputation. Sitting next to Gator in the front pew every Sunday Service led to many confused glances and jealous glares. Why on Earth would a teacher - arguably more educated than all of the Tillmans combined - seemingly settle for the high school has-been, nepotism man-child that was Gator Tillman?
But they didn't notice his look of adoration as you listened to every Sunday Service when the church's natural light hit the highlights of your face just right. They didn't see the Gator that made you laugh with his childish jokes and interests. They didn't hear the sweet nothings he muttered into your hair late at night, tangled in your sheets as you passed his vape between hits.
He made you feel beautiful; wanted, hell even needed.
The thought of possibly losing all of that terrified you. This was why the color drained from your face one particular afternoon when you heard a familiar knock on your classroom door.
"Mister Gator!" your students yelled in unison. They were enamored with the deputy.
"Mister Gator, is your gun real?"
"Have you ever killed anyone with it?"
"Can we see it?!"
The kids were relentless in their questioning of your boyfriend, who looked at you with panic in his eyes as the kids swarmed his legs. You rolled your eyes as he mouthed 'help me' before placing two fingers in your mouth and blowing your best Midwestern dad whistle.
"Hey! One, two, three. Eyes on me, kindergarten!" you shouted over the babble of 18 five-year-olds. You stifled a groan as all eyes fell on you, including Gator's, "Quit asking about Deputy Tillman's gun. It is for emergencies only and can only be used by him. Got it?"
The kids (and Gator) nodded.
"Good. Now, line up for lunch. You'll sit with Miss Julie's class today."
Gator heaved a sigh of relief as the kids lined up for lunch, chattering away. You felt his casted arm grace the small of your back.
"We need to talk," you whispered, ducking from his attempt to peck your cheek. You waited until the last kid was out the door before you locked it, leaving you and a confused Gator alone.
If a man could short-circuit, you'd probably witnessed it as you watched Gator freeze rigid, leaning against your Halloween-themed bulletin board.
An agonizing silence loomed over the classroom before Gator finally cleared his throat.
"H-how, uh, how long have you known?" he stammered, his fingers fidgeting with his vape. You could tell he was fighting every urge to give it a massive inhale in front of you.
You ran a hand through your hair and sighed, "I took like four tests this morning; all positive."
Gator mimicked your hand through his own hair, muttering fuck under his breath.
"Look, Gator I'm sorry," you shifted against the desk you were leaning on, "I definitely didn't plan on this, and I know this isn't exactly what you wanted, but-"
You kept rambling, but your voice was warped to Gator's ears like he was underwater; he was drowning. Drowning in the realization that he had fucked up; he royally fucked up again. Your tear-drenched pleading snapped him back to reality.
"Gator, please say something! I feel like I'm losing it, here."
Gator opened and shut his mouth multiple times before uttering a strangled "I - I don't know what I should say," God, his chest felt tight, "I don't know how to be a dad, Y/N. I'm already a colossal fuck-up in my dad's eyes. I don't want to fuck this up, too."
For the first time in his life, he was speechless; and it was happening at the worst possible time.
"Well, you're not off to the best start, asshole," you sniffled and wiped your nose on your bright cardigan's sleeve before glancing at your watch, "Kids'll be back in five minutes," you rubbed at your eyes, attempting to erase any evidence of your tears, "Look, my first appointment's on Monday. Come by if you want to. Or don't if that's what you want."
You turned your attention to the construction paper at your desk. As Gator turned toward the door, you called his name one more time.
You took a deep breath as he turned your way.
"There's no half-assing this; I can't have you half in and half out of this kid's life. It's all or nothing with me, Tillman. Don't come around unless you're ready for that."
Gator quietly nodded before entering the hallway and inhaling the largest gust of strawberry kiwi nicotine he could muster on the way to the patrol truck.
Gator spent the rest of his patrol mindlessly staring out the passenger window in an attempt to clear his head. But the longer he stared at the empty North Dakotan plains, the more his thoughts spiraled.
You were having his kid.
He was a boy in a man's skin; twenty-six, still in his childhood bedroom; still doing chores for his daddy. Before you blew into his life he was destined to live life under Roy Tillman's thumb, sniveling in the sheriff's shadow with nowhere to hide from the town's judgment.
You were having his kid.
And he dragged you into this, too.
Once Roy caught wind of his son knocking up a schoolteacher any semblance of freedom for you two would be gone. Roy would either use his connections and bribe you into agreeing to a back-alley abortion; or, he'd strong-arm you both into a shotgun wedding and life on the ranch forever under Tillman's watchful eye. No option sounded good.
Gator nodded at his partner, Alvie, as they neared a familiar gas station.
"Pull over here. I gotta take a piss."
Alvie obeyed, agreeing to fill up as Gator went inside. After taking a much-needed leak, he scoped the gas station for some much-needed snacks. After finding his goods he paused for a second before grabbing another pack for you. He wasn't sure if you'd even like them, but he figured the thought would count.
An eerie silence permeated the air as Gator climbed back into his passenger seat, tearing open his jerky packet with his teeth.
"Fuck, that's hot," he muttered as he struggled to open his Mountain Dew bottle with his casted arm. The heat rising in his lips made him regret his choice of snacks for you. He sat for a second in silence before glancing at his rearview mirror.
It was the image in the side view mirror that made him slide down in his seat in a panic before clambering out of the truck, service revolver in hand. Gator crept to the bed of the truck where Alvie lay dead on the pavement, a knife through his chest. Gator's pulse sped up and his breaths became ragged as he read the message attached to Alvie's bloody corpse.
You owe me. _______________________________

Married!Stonathan with a daughter headcanons to brighten your day ✨
🔸 Stonathan Masterlist
🔹 Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 5 | Part 6
A/N: I've been thinking about Steve and Jonathan having a kid a lot lately! Also, might've turned this into a semi-fanfic, but I don't care!
✨ First of all, I want to tell you that I headcanon Jonathan as being a photojournalist (because that's his dream job and I want my baby boy to be HAPPY!) and Steve... Well, I imagine him as a police officer (maybe because of the fact that Joe Keery played a cop in the 5th Season of Fargo, but it also opens the possibility of imagining Steve working with Father-in-law!Hopper!);
✨ Their daughter's name is Elizabeth Harrington-Byers, but they call her Lizzie or Liz (because I love the name "Elizabeth," and it's definitely a name Steve and Jonathan would pick);
✨ They only call her "Elizabeth" when they're mad at her (which is practically never);
✨ Steve tries teaching her how to say his name as her first word (because "daddy" could be either of them), so Jonathan tries teaching her his name;
✨ Joyce watches over her when they're at work. Steve and Jonathan (mostly Jonathan) call her every hour or so to check on Lizzie;
✨ Jonathan takes thousands of pictures of Lizzie and proudly shows them to Nancy;
✨ Nancy and Robin proudly take on the role of the "cool aunts";
— Robin: [Holding Elizabeth and pointing at Steve] Say "dingus", Lizzie!
— Steve: [Taking Elizabeth from Robin's arms] Don't come near my daughter ever again, Robin.
✨ One time, Elizabeth babbled something that sounded eerily similar to "mama," and it sent Steve and Jonathan into a spiral of panic;
— Steve: Did she just say "mama"?!
— Jonathan: No, no, no, no! It’s just baby talk... Probably.
✨ Her first word was, obviously, "dada," and she said it while pointing at both of them;
✨ Thanks to Steve's lack of a baby filter, Elizabeth knows a couple of bad words;
— Joyce: [Calling Jonathan] Your daughter just said "shit." You, Steve, and I are going to have a talk later...
— Jonathan: But, mom! It's Steve's fault...!
✨ Uncle!Will has a special nickname for his niece - Lilibet - and no one else is allowed to use it, not even Mike;
✨ They often get confused whenever Elizabeth calls dad because they don't know which one she's calling;
— Elizabeth: Dad!
— Jonathan: Yeah, sweetie?
— Elizabeth: No, Dad Steve!
✨ Elizabeth, in turn, gets confused when Steve and Jonathan call themselves "dad;"
— Steve: Okay, Lizzie, dad's going to work now, and your other dad's staying here with you.
— Elizabeth: Which one?
— Steve: Me.
— Elizabeth: So... You're staying home with me?
— Jonathan: [Sighs] No, sweetheart, I'm staying home with you.
✨ These are life long confusions, by the way;
✨ Uncle Will and Uncle Mike, who are a comic book illustrator and a writer, respectively, make several special comics for their niece;
✨ Elizabeth calls every member of the Party "Uncle" or "Aunt" much to El, Will and Mike's (her real uncles and aunt) annoyance;
✨ The party definitely teaches her how to play D&D - they haven't played that game in years, so they're a little rusty;
✨ As his daughter gets older, Jonathan starts to worry if she'll stop seeing them as her parents because they're not biologically related, or if she'll start asking for a mom;
✨ They're terribly concerned if she'll suffer bullying when Elizabeth starts at school;
✨ Jonathan is a bit more overprotective than Steve, and also a bit more strict too (but just a tiny bit);
✨ But he also has a huge soft spot for her. All Elizabeth needs is a "puppy eyes" stare, and Daddy Jonathan will do anything she wants;
✨ One time, Elizabeth got into a fight at school because some students were making fun of her for having two dads, and Lizzie, being Jonathan Byers' daughter, kicked their asses.
— Steve: Ha! She has your fighting prowess, Jon!
— Jonathan: Don't encourage her, Steve.
— Steve: Oh, come on, she was just defending our honor!
— Jonathan: [Sighing] Alright, fine... It was kinda cool.
✨ They freaked out a little bit (actually, a lot) when their daughter had her first period;
— Steve: [Holding two different brands of pads at the pharmacy] What's the difference between this one and this one?
— Jonathan: Uh... This one is regular and this one is ultra-thin.
— Steve: Ok... So what's the difference?
— Jonathan: [Sighs] We should've called Nancy... Or Robin... Or any woman...
— Steve: We're taking both!
✨ Jonathan teaches her photography and even buys her a Polaroid camera for her birthday;
✨ Steve teaches her basketball, but Elizabeth's favorite sport is soccer. They watch soccer matches together, and Steve lets her curse freely, much to Jonathan's chagrin;
✨ They enjoy torturing Elizabeth's boyfriends. After all, a boyfriend's worst nightmare is meeting his girlfriend's dad, and Elizabeth happens to have two, so double the nightmare;
✨ It's Jonathan who teaches her how to drive because, and I quote, "your dad Steve drives like a cop chasing robbers";
✨ They love embarrassing her with stories of when they were younger;
— Steve: Hey, Liz, have I ever told you how I fell in love with your dad?
— Elizabeth: Ugh. Not again...
— Steve: He kicked my ass in high school! That's when I realized, "This is the man I want to marry!"
— Jonathan: And did you know your dad used to work at an ice cream parlor called "Scoops Ahoy"? Steve, go grab the photo album, show her the pictures I took of you wearing that cute sailor uniform!
— Elizabeth: Please, no!
✨ Elizabeth would never do even half of the stupid things Steve and Jonathan did when they were teenagers. Still, they worry she might do something dumb;
— Jonathan: But Liz is such a good kid...
— Steve: Yeah, but she's also our daughter!
— Jonathan: ... Fair point.
✨ When Elizabeth turns into a teenager, Steve realises his dream of having "six little nuggets" would be a nightmare, so they decide to stick with just one kid... For now.
