Dear best friend,

𝟭𝟭 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘀. It’s been 11 months since I lost you. Suicide is such a horrible thing to cope with, because it’s preventable. If people could get the 𝘢𝘤𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴 they need to proper mental healthcare, maybe things would have been different. You called me that night. I asked if you were good, and you told me you were great, you just wanted to chat for a second. You’d always 𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝗺𝗲 if you weren’t okay. But you were great. So I told you I’d call you as soon as I got done taking my dog for a walk. … I forgot to call you back. It happened less than 2 hours after I told you I’d call you back. You should have 𝗧𝗢𝗟𝗗 me. Like you always did, all those times before when I’d head straight to your house and let you let it all out. I struggle with that so much, because I know I could have helped you that night, if I had known. I know I could’ve talked you down because I had before.

𝘞𝘩𝘺 𝘥𝘪𝘥𝘯'𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘮𝘦? I would’ve dropped everything. You might still be here. I wouldn’t be having to send these unanswered texts to a phone that’s probably not even in service anymore. I wouldn’t be hanging out with you at your grave instead of at your house. In these 11 months, there have been so many times I reached to call you, to tell you something exciting or funny, or to break down myself.

But I can’t hear your voice anymore. You’ll never again tell me that everything is going to be okay. You’ll never make me laugh until I cry again. And I hate it. I hate it with every fiber of my being that I can’t hear your voice again in this life. I don’t want to wait 50 years down the road to see you again.

I ask myself so many questions. But the main question I ask myself is 𝘸𝘩𝘺. Why did you leave? Don’t get me wrong, I’m not angry. I could never be angry with you. I’ve tried. It’s not in me. Because in our 10 years of best friendship, I have never been mad or angry with you. You made that impossible. I’m a lot to handle sometimes, and yet you always knew exactly what to do to make me love you and forget about everything else.

I ask myself why again, why the mental healthcare system in our country failed you. Because it failed you so bad. You put your life on the line every single time you put that police uniform on, you’ve seen things and witnessed things on the job that 𝗡𝗢 𝗢𝗡𝗘 should ever have to be exposed to. So why could our country not give you a little bit back and help you when you needed help the most? I could talk all day about how fucked up our system is, but if I could do one thing with my life, I’d help those in the military, law enforcement, and first responders get access to the mental healthcare they so desperately need.

I don’t really know why I’m typing all of this out, because someone else has your number now, but I had to get it out of my brain somehow, at least for a few minutes. I think about you every day. I miss you every day. I love you every day. I wish you were here.

Love,

T💗

Supernatural Cops

The fandom has come to the conclusion that all kinds of supernatural or unusual things happen in Amity Park and people take it like any other Tuesday.

Still, I wouldn't be surprised if this place is the only place in the country (not to say the world) that has a police division in charge of handling Cults…

Yes, in Amity Park there is a group of police (not to say half of all the police in the city) that are dedicated to controlling cults and their peculiarities, because we must remember that, despite the reputation of being a tourist trap, this town in the middle of nowhere has the reputation of being the most haunted place in the country (or the world), so it wouldn't be crazy to say that on certain dates of the year many "tourists" (cough cultists cough) arrive who come in order to do "events" (cough rites cough), so whether they want it or not, someone has to control that the limits on how they are "celebrating" are not broken… and to top it off, the limits of what the city considers acceptable is a greater margin than other places, so it has become common for some groups to come back later.

So yes, Amity Park has one of the most effective police departments in dealing with cults and supernatural beliefs, not only are they effective in identifying participants, most of the time they know what kind of cultist they are dealing with, whether they are just playing a game or are the real magic business and how dangerous/troublesome they will be in the end.

What's more, this group is so good at what they do, that many times the inhabitants of Amity Park prefer to call them instead of the GIW (they are too destructive and there is still no 100% reliable insurance that will pay for the damages they cause), when it comes to a problem with a ghost and the ghost child is not around.

and that competition is more noticeable when other cities in the country begin to ask for help with some unknown cults that are appearing rap

there's just... there is no reason to make yet another cop show in this day and age. copaganda is not only bullshit, it is a failure of imagination.

you want to watch brooding characters with dark pasts investigate crimes in an official capacity? just use private detectives (cops have a miserable solve rate anyway). want eccentric geniuses & their sidekicks solving mysteries? i present you with armchair detectives & neighborhood busybodies. oh, you're craving a workplace comedy-drama starring overworked protagonists doing their heartfelt best to resolve community conflicts? social worker office sitcom! bitch this is ACHIEVABLE

one of the funniest news things in canada that always tickles me is the ongoing war between magic mushroom shops and the police.

this is the absolute height of humour to me right now

this beautiful morn on god's green earth is as good a day as any to weed out the people who were just following me here for "uwu Somft Huggable Squishy" art (my art of plus size bodies), but don't actually care about fat people, as people, and feel personally offended the SECOND we vocalize frustration abt the fatphobia we experience.

Getting myself in the headspace for the coming four months of my feed to be:

"Kamala is a cop 😃🫡👮‍♀️🇺🇸🟦👩‍⚖️" vs.

"Kamala is a cop 😡🙅🐷🚨⛔🥓"

[cumaeansibyl]

here's something I wish more people understood:

the police are never required to read you your Miranda rights.

"but if they don't then the arrest is invalid!" no. false. stop saying this. Miranda rights only apply to questioning. if you haven't been properly Mirandized, the police can't use your statements in court.

they are still allowed to question you! they can still write down what you say and go investigate it. they just can't use it in court, but maybe they don't care, because you gave them a tip they were able to use anyway.

there are also times when they aren't particularly interested in questioning you right away, so you can just sit in jail without being told a damn thing and that's legal. there's a time limit on how long they can keep you before charging you, but once they've got a charge they don't exactly have to be in a rush.

now a lot of times cops will go ahead and read you your rights at arrest because then it's over with, but people seem to have concluded from this that it's illegal to arrest someone without Mirandizing them first, which just isn't true.

I feel like even a lot of people who don't trust cops are not aware of how much unacceptable shit is perfectly legal for cops to do. Like, you think it must be illegal for them to lie and coerce and mistreat people but it's actually much worse than that. They're violating human rights with the full consent of the law.

Blaming Silco for Felicia’s death imo is more of an underline as to why Vander was a very flawed character/revolutionary leader and not why Silco was inherently evil. Everyone showed up to fight, where it seems like Vander was the sole survivor and everyone else was shot/ran. That is the reality of resistance, you don’t know going in when the switch is going to flip and when shots get fired. Silco didn’t shoot Felicia and Connol. Enforcers did. Vi and Vander both say verbatim that they were killed by enforcers, I know that one scene implies Silco feels guilty and Vander blamed him for escalating by tossing a Molotov cocktail, but I need you all to be so for real with yourselves about how shooting a bridge full of protestors is also an extreme retaliation and sit with why blaming Silco or Vander, and them blaming eachother/themselves, is wrong. Why feeling guilty and personal responsibility for a violent system comfortable with executing civilians in the street cant really rest on either of their shoulders. And that blaming Slco for their deaths is very centrist lib of you and I won’t stand for it.

Why did they vote for the guy who promised to pardon them all if he wins the presidency if they didn't want them all pardoned?!

Putting out the worlds most unpopular post for anyone who needs to hear it:

Nobody needs to be shamed for wondering what kind of content creator they're supporting after the message today.

It's perfectly valid to post your feelings and speculations on tumblr. Blogs are not that serious.

Content creators not just public figures, they're influencers who absolutely can and should be held to some standard of ethical behavior by the fans. That standard is for you to choose. They have gone out of their way to craft a wholesome, family-friendly environment and wondering if that's genuine or what their standards are is legitimate. You don't need to censor yourself to save anyone else's discomfort.

Also, the wording of the statement made by Hermitcraft was pretty clear that Iskall was in a quit or be fired position. There was some accusation, whether it be about his actions or beliefs and they confronted him about it and decided he shouldn't stay on HC. No one needs to be an ostrich and stick their head in the sand about him "choosing to leave". If he was just quitting they wouldn't have to make a statement about responding seriously to complaints they received. This is also confirmed by the vault hunters streamers leaving his server. Saying "we know nothing" is not true, we know this: he said or did something, and because of it they don't want to work with him anymore.

If you want permission to talk about it, take mine.

Also Mumbo is scrubbing Iskall from his channel, so there's that.
