okay but I need to yell about this somewhere and tumblr is the only social media platform I actually use.

In may my province is introducing a bill to the table in legislature (Compassionate Intervention Act) that essentially allows people to be sent for "rehabilitative care" against their will if it's deemed that they are in active addiction and a "danger" to themselves/the community because of it. Already sounds Not Great, right?

Well, the act is mainly intended for the rising homeless population. Their intent is that those suffering on the streets from addiction can be scooped up, evaluated, and dropped off at a rehab facility for detox/"treatment" regardless of if they want the help or not. The reality is they're going to use to it to scoop up EVERY homeless person and ship them off. Entering into the "Super Not Great WTF" territory now.

WELL. The government won't disclose where people will be sent. They haven't made plans for any new facilities to be built (besides a new voluntary center) and we don't have any existing infrastructure that could accommodate that kind of care. When prompted by the media or concerned citizens, they say it's TOO EARLY to be thinking about that stuff and there's no plan in place (you're introducing it NEXT MONTH. You should be able to say what the general plan is). We're now at "JFC what is WRONG with you!!!!" level.

WEEELLL, turns out we DO have infrastructure that can handle this kind of program. Our prisons have lots of room. Not to mention, hiring an "addiction specialist" (in quotes because they're not going to hire an actual qualified person) at each prison is WAY cheaper than creating a new properly equipped and staffed facility. So come May, we're all bracing for the announcement that involuntary rehabilitative care will be completed In Prison. They're going to be able to 100% legally move every homeless person to prison for the crime of being homeless and therefore likely on drugs if it's approved.

I'm fucking LIVID.

#we're having an election this fall #and if this conservative ass government doesn't get the fuck out of office #there is going to be riots #our Premier is a fucking joke to everyone in canada #he's so far up the ass of the local oil company he's literally popping out their mouth as a spokesman #oh he's also trying to make it so the courts can't challenge the act as well #because OF COURSE he is

MORE NAMES TO KNOW

Tina Bell: frontwoman of the band Bam Bam, often called the Godmother of grunge because of its influence. Racism within the scene has led to her influence being pretty extensively erased but her bandmate and lifelong friend Scotty Buttocks has been working hard to counteract that by doing press and preserving their music here. Kurt fucking Cobain was their roadie

Betty Davis: 70s funk rock legend who just recently passed away. Incredibly unique performer that was way ahead of her time. Not to be confused with Bette Davis.

Sistah Grrrl Riots: A black punk collective put together in response to alienation and racism in the 90s punk and riot grrrl scenes. Organized by legends Tamar-Kali Brown, Honeychild Coleman, Maya Glick, and Simi Stone. You can read more about sistah grrrl in this article.

Ronnie Spector: Frontwoman of the Ronettes and rock n roll pioneer. Black girl groups were a huge influence on the sound of Rock n Roll as we know it from The Beatles to Led Zepplin to the Rolling Stones. She recently passed but her autobiography came out last year and it's worth the read.

everyone's joking about a lesbian love triangle being the focus of rhaenyra/alicent/mysaria's stories in hotd s3 but that will literally be what happens when mysaria acts to uphold and support the image of rhaenyra as queen (or rhaenyra's duty) and alicent is kept prisoner (or a hidden but unavoidable reminder of rhaenyra's love). and so the love triangle will serve to represent rhaenyra's internal conflict between love and duty

#and if you are me and subscribe to the theory that alicent will escape to dragonstone with rhaenyra after the riots in KL #then rhaenyra chooses alicent/love #i think the book page foreshadows this attempt at escape #“traveling across the narrow to flee a war of dragons”#alicent going to dragonstone with rhaenyra would also totally recontextualize rhaenyra selling her crown to pay for passage #rhaenyra abandons this ultimate symbol of her duty for a final chance at happiness with alicent #and then there's the horrible irony of the audience already knowing that aegon ii has taken dragonstone as they sail toward the island #knowing that rhaenyra and alicent could never actually be physically liberated from the system of patriarchal violence they exist in #but by that point they have both mentally liberated themselves from it #rhaenyra selling her crown and alicent finally accepting rhaenyra's offer to run away and totally abandoning duty #and so the love was important and valuable in the sense that they both die understanding that they couldn't change the part they played #but they know now that they had this love that sustained them despite the plotting and scheming and violence #and the love will be forgotten by history but not by them and in that their love will finally be free #crazy actually that they decided to do this shit with a game of thrones prequel #hotd #alicent hightower #hotd spoilers #rhaenicent #rhaenyra targaryen #house of the dragon #also they are having gay sex on the boat to dragonstone i saw it in a vision

i think we need to understand the gravity of how quickly Percy blames himself and his disabilities for the way his world is. how he's been made to believe over years and years that he's weird, that there's something wrong with him. Percy saying he should've been paying attention. Percy saying there's something wrong with his brain. Percy calling himself broken.. he's just a kid man

#this is so unbelievably important #goes to show how the treatment of disabled kids can harm their self esteem so much #he's literally twelve??#this kid has been told his entire life that there's something wrong with him #and he believes it #you can see how upset Sally is that he thinks that #like that's her little boy #i would riot so badly if my child ever had any reason to say that about themselves #also brunner calling him “special” earlier in the episode probably aggravated his reaction to getting the same statement from sally #god he's just a baby #he doesn't deserve this #this show is going to jumpstart such important conversations about a wide variety of things and I am so here for it #renew it already #percy jackson #sally jackson #walker scobell #virginia kull #percy jackon and the olympians #pjo tv show #pjo tv spoilers #isoceratops

Prompt 274

You know what is fun? Baby Ghost Jason. You know what could be even more fun? Ghosts are Dragons.

Jason? Aware of none of this.

He was on comms, y’know listening and rolling his eyes at Dickwing, who used his real name, really Dick, he mocks. It’s just a stakeout, nothing new there, honestly boring when he could be blowing something up instead. It should have just been a stakeout.

Yet there’s something suddenly there, something behind him. Something that causes his hair to stand on end and his comms to spark into static like some sort of horror movie. Something, something with clawed hands with corpse-pale skin tipped in black, stained or dead or something else, tilting his head up and up and up as he’s frozen.

“A child, out here? Alone?” a voice crackles, hisses, hums, and purrs, somehow all at once, unnatural in its tone. He can’t move, he needs to move, he has to move, but it’s like the space around him has gone cold and dead, like he’s stuck in the Pits once more as claws hold his head and his vision blurs. “Sleep, child. Rest- we’ll be home soon.”
