Lol, we don't need cops? Are you serious? Without them families would be left to defend themselves against the criminals that would run rampant in the streets because tHeRe WoUlDn'T bE cOpS tO eNfOrCe OrDeR. Not to mention, crime rates would go up, not because there wouldn't be police to lock up existing criminals, but because more and more people would begin to live lawless and violent due to no one there to tell them no.

Seriously guys, cops aren't all bad. They are just here to do a job like the next guy and not to mention their jobs are hard, they are under constant stress and pressure which makes them eventually come to make a mistake. Accidents happen. It's life.

I hope everyone stays safe and is having a decent 2020 (dispite all this spaz happening with covid-19 and such). I love you all! ❤️❤️

Nah dude, some police are genuinely trying to make the world a better place. They go through a lot of shit so that they can try and help people. I hate most of the shit police do. I don't like being told what to do either. But people are fucking killing cops. That's people killin people and it's fucked. You're the death of your own cause if you condone violence and murder ya dumb fuck. Black lives matter, let's protect them by not murdering good people and giving nazis any sort of argument.

Gonna break down this response as clearly as possible. 

The origins of the police are evil. 

It has been shown repeatedly that the police were formed to oppress the working class and (1, 2) and enforce white supremacy (1, 2, 3). In fact, the early U.S. police grew directly out of slavery.

The police aren’t the people you think they are.

The police don’t care about you – they don’t even have a constitutional duty to protect you. They’re allowed to take your property without your consent (the NYPD seizes so much property they can’t even log it in their computers). In fact, cops are more likely to steal your property than burglars are. They commit hundreds of crimes and human rights violations against people like you & me and get away with it because they cover for each other.

Cops tend to be unusually aggressive, authoritarian, and secretive (Greene & Heilbrun, 2011). They are more than twice as likely to commit domestic violence than the rest of the population, and (once again) they cover for each other when doing so. The police are on the side of neo-Nazis (1, 2). In fact, many times the police themselves are the neo-Nazis/klansmen (1, 2, 3). And even besides all this, cops do all kinds of other shady shit – for instance, undercover police are used to instigate fights during protests and rallies.

The police terrorize those of us who are marginalized.

The police disproportionately arrest Black people for drugs even though white people use drugs more often. They disproportionately pull Black people over for traffic stops. The police terrorize people with disabilities.They are viciously anti-indigenous – and always have been. Police terrorize sex workers. There are countless examples of police brutalizing homeless people (1, 2, 3). The police have a lengthy history of brutality against the LGBT community (1, 2). They terrorize women of color and get away with it (1, 2, 3). They kill massive numbers of people each year – and a disproportionate number of their victims are Black and native. On top of that, recent data suggests cops may kill up to twice as many people as we even thought they did. And while police love to defend themselves by saying they have the most dangerous job, that’s not even close to being true.

The police’s best kept secret: We don’t need them! 

A world without the police is completely possible (1, 2, 3, 4). We have resources for resolving violence as communities without the need for state intervention (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 – as some examples). We as communities are better capable of resolving violence than the police are, because we don’t have the vested interest in the status quo that they have. Even if a few cops are well-intentioned here or there, it doesn’t change that the role of the police is to work against the vast majority of us in the interests of the (white) elite few. 

Why are you so invested in the police when they are complicit in your dehumanization?

Vampire Headcanons

Vampires have a venom that makes the blood-drinking experience pleasurable for their meal. Not in a sexual way—it just makes all their muscles relax and their brain feel peaceful, ten times better than any massage or spa day.

Many humans love it—it’s therapeutic.

There are “blood bars” where both humans and vampires go, the humans to be drank. Usually in secret places so humans who don’t know about vampires don’t accidentally wander in.

Often a human who’s a vampire’s preferred dish ends up marrying them. The vampire then generally makes their spouse their main source of blood, and occasionally they’ll intentionally turn them (with permission, of course—you can be sentenced to death for doing it non-consensually.)

Every human has a distinct scent. Just by taking a whiff a vampire can tell their blood type, how healthy they are, etc.

A lot of vampires work in hospitals and doctor’s offices to help sniff out diseases and help people get treatment/the best blood transfusions, or to have easy access to blood.

Vampires themselves have no scent.

There are various blood drives that go to vampires in bad situations who don’t want to bite anyone against their will.

A blood substitute, colloquially called “synthetic”, exists and is being improved upon. It usually comes in the form of a clear liquid, either in a bag or a bottle.

Synthetic tastes TERRIBLE. And not like “ew, Brussels sprouts” terrible. More like “this is torture, I want to drive a stake through my heart, I can feel my soul shriveling and screaming inside my ribcage” terrible. And even that description doesn’t do it justice.

Vampires usually only turn people when they go into feeding frenzies. The experience is…there are no words for the horrific feeling of being turned.

A vampire can go up to a month without eating. After that, the danger of loosing control and entering a feeding frenzy is substantial.

Some carry bandaids on them in case they need a quick fix.

Not all vampire eyes are red. They do tend to be warm colors, and they do glow depending on mood, but they aren’t always red.

8 Effective Ways to Strengthen Parent-Teen Relationships

There’s no such thing as a perfect family. Parents may often think they’re doing what’s “best for their child” because they love them, but those actions may not always necessarily be healthy. As children grow up and reach their teenage years, this is usually when things take a turn for the worst. Arguments may be frequent, misunderstandings increase, and parents will begin to wonder what happened to the sweet child they used to play with. This is a concern commonly experienced and we want to help be a part of the solution. Psych2Go shares with you 8 effective ways that can strengthen parent-teen relationships:

1. Hug each other on a daily basis.

Psychologist Janice Kiecolt-Glaser states, “The older you are, the more fragile you are physically, so contact becomes increasingly important for good health.” When you enter your teenage years, you may be reluctant to hug your parents because it’s no longer considered to be “cool.” As you learn to be more independent…
