This time of year (holidays) is so damn stressful and I need to work on revisions but I also just want to sit around nursing my stress and anxiety riddled body.
Opening at AIM Interpretive Center. So excited to see this wonderful exhibit on Heart of the Earth’s People In Prison Entering Sobriety (P.I.P.E.S.) programming. Open now! #endmassincarceration #minneapolis #indigenousresistance (at American Indian Movement Interpretive Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq3HxOqFECx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=kupdaytbxfh7
anyway tear gas is actually a fucking nerve agent that can absolutely kill you and even though governments think its cool to spray it on kids the geneva convention disagrees
i’ve been thinking about this all day. speaking as a person who has been tear gassed to hell and back i wouldn’t fucking wish that sensation on my worst enemy let alone CHILDREN. it’s beyond words. don’t believe people when they tell you it’s for crowd control. it’s not. it’s to make crowds PANIC. it’s to make you fear for your life. it’s to make you feel like you’re dying. it can trigger panic attacks and asthma attacks in young people and heart attacks in the elderly. it’s fucking unconscionable is what it is and every single government who uses it should be shamed for eternity
“fascist rogue state deploys chemical weapons against unarmed civilians on another country’s sovereign soil”
Scott Madin, responding to report “
US Border Patrol has just launched tear gas into Mexico. Breeze carrying it hundreds of yards. Parents running away with choking toddlers. #migrantcaravan”
Also worth noting that if he doesn’t change, it doesn’t mean that you aren’t “the right woman” or whatever bs that implies. He has to not make the women in his life accountable for his own actions
