“I was a police officer for nearly ten years and I was a bastard. We all were.

“This essay has been kicking around in my head for years now and I’ve never felt confident enough to write it. It’s a time in my life I’m ashamed of. It’s a time that I hurt people and, through inaction, allowed others to be hurt. It’s a time that I acted as a violent agent of capitalism and white supremacy. Under the guise of public safety, I personally ruined people’s lives but in so doing, made the public no safer… so did the family members and close friends of mine who also bore the badge alongside me.

“But enough is enough.

“The reforms aren’t working. Incrementalism isn’t happening. Unarmed Black, indigenous, and people of color are being killed by cops in the streets and the police are savagely attacking the people protesting these murders.

“American policing is a thick blue tumor strangling the life from our communities and if you don’t believe it when the poor and the marginalized say it, if you don’t believe it when you see cops across the country shooting journalists with less-lethal bullets and caustic chemicals, maybe you’ll believe it when you hear it straight from the pig’s mouth.”

Except, you know, the first few commenters here or people who tell bisexuals in straight relationships they can’t attend pride etc. But go ahead and convince yourself that nobody is excluding or erasing bisexuals and pansexuals from the LGBTQ+ community.

I just…………

So, this has come up a lot lately and, while this data is old, bisexual individuals make up over 50% of those that identify as LGB. While there might be reasons for this that I am not going to take the time to delve into, it is such a shame that a large percentage of a group that has been historically harmed by erasure is literally erased by other members of the group. And even if bisexuals WEREN’T a majority and were just a SLIVER of the fucking LGBTQ+ pie, there STILL IS NOT a reason to exclude them. And the same for all this goes for pansexual individuals. Yall are nasty. Link for shitty source: https://williamsinstitute.law.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/Gates-How-Many-People-LGBT-Apr-2011.pdf

So, this will not be relevant to anybody that follows me, but I finally am fulfilling a dream I’ve had since I was younger to own Warhammer 40K minis and build my own army. I used to get too embarrassed at the thought because it always seemed to be part of uber-nerd culture, but I am so fricken pumped to suck at painting my own tiny platoon of demented space monsters. It’s great.

@strictlyamess/@skeletonscribbles tagged me and I don’t think I’ve ever done more than a handful of these things, so I am going to flip the script and kind of just do it the way I want to. Preemptively, I’ll say that I find this incredibly difficult, as I don’t really see myself as a character in fiction and I don’t think I would ever want to be a character in fiction. As such, I am focusing on 3 positive traits that I feel I have and characters that I think embody them.

Three characters I am like prompt, sort of:

1) Positivity / Cecil (Welcome to Night Vale): An odd/controversial pair right out the gate, but I feel like Cecil best represents positivity. The fictional town of Night Vale is, supposedly, adjusted to the strange and occult that occurs, but the optimistic outlook of radio news host Cecil still shines through and matches what I feel is a trait I aim to always put forth. Ever since I was young, I have been a happy person. And while there have been times that I have fallen off the path or what have you, I definitely admire people who have a positive outlook, or at least one that says, “tomorrow will happen, I’ll be around to face it”, and that is what Cecil is to me.

2) Fictive Kinship / Samwise Gamgee: Platonic love is something I feel is not brought out into the open often enough. I love all my friends. Deeply. And I think Sam is probably the fictional character that best represents loving a friend as much as you possibly can. For all my friends reading this (aka the, like, two people who follow me that I talk to in real life), I love you all, a lot.

3) Unabashed Enthusiasm for whatever / J.D. (Scrubs) – This is probably also the character I think best represents me. J.D. is a loser, nerd, weirdo, whatever you want to call him. He still gets appletini's and wants to finally perform his and Turk's screenplay for Dr. Akula. I like to think that in recent years I have come to better express myself for my passions, instead of being afraid of the judgment or stigma that comes with some of them. I love J.D., and if I had to pick a character to compare myself with in total, J.D. would probably be the closest thing. Scrubs is a great show that really handles comedy mixed with drama well, and J.D.'s flawed character is probably the one I see myself in the most.

So yeah, 3 traits, 3 characters, 3 random snapshots of my personality with obvious bias. Also, Sean Astin’s character in Stranger Things, Bob Newby could fit probably all of these characters and he is awesome.

Any of my followers that want to do this should, it really makes you think about yourself if you haven't in a while. I would tag people, but @strictlyamess already tagged @reblogthiscrapkay and I really don't know anybody else on tumblr

Peter Parker, also known as the popular superhero ‘Spiderman’, is roughly 16-17 years old, meaning he was born in either 2001 or 2002. Contrary to popular belief, this place him firmly in the ‘Gen Z’ category, rather than the millennial category that many place him in. By extrapolating this information, we can conclude that Peter Parker not only knows what a furry is, but constantly has to grapple with the fact that his spider-centric identity is, in fact, his fursona. In this essay I will-
