Kinda embarrassed to put this up by I got fired from my job last week after being constantly targeted by the new store manager. I having a restrained relationship with my parents and my mom refused to help me as I'm actively trying to find a new job. I'm too grateful for the help this platform offered back when I escaped from my violently house and I never thought I was going to make a similar fund post, but I'm not in a position to be shameful of asking for help. (I'll delete this 2 weeks later hopefully)

If you don't want to listen to trauma, why the FUCK did you become a therapist? This genuinely makes me livid
There was a little girl in church, about 5, and her parents obviously let her get dressed herself that day because she came waddling in with the puffiest coat on in the summer in North Carolina. She comes and sits in the pew in front of us. 15 minutes into mass she turns around and hands my husand an orange. Her parents are mortified.
“Savannah not again!” They scold! (Again kills me)
They appologize and she turns back around. A few moments later she goes to hand me an orange but her parents grab it from her before she can.
Savannah is determined. She reaches her tiny fists into her puffy coat and pulls out two more ornages. She begins to distribute them. Her parents are now beat red and in shock. There is no stopping small Savannah now.
This small child proceeds to laugh a laugh I can only call maniacal (in a Catholic church) unzip the inner line of her coat and releases what had to have been 20-30 of those little kid oranges into the pews.
WE EAT Savannah yells cackeling
The priest can no longer contain his glee
The entire church is dying with laughter
She felt like Jesus on the moutian with the baskets of fish that day I’m sure.
Children are amazing.
We should all strive to be more like Savannah
Before I argued with a shit ton of landlords and wannabe landlords: I think we should strengthen tenant’s rights and enforce our existing tenant protection laws better, and increase our housing benefits.
After spending too much time arguing with landlords and wannabe landlords: Fuck it. It should be illegal to own homes you don’t live in. If you won’t sell to the people renting from you, people should forcibly take your property. All landlords are parasites.
"iF yOu DoN't LiKe ReNtInG jUsT bUy A hOuSe"
Houses in my city go for, like, $500k. I can't. Housing prices in the US have skyrocketed while wages have stagnated. That is in fact the problem--most people cannot afford to buy a house, and many people pay more than half their income in rent. Ever saved up for a down payment on a house while doing that?
"mOvE iF yOu DoN't LiKe YoUr LaNdLoRd"
Moving is expensive and stressful. There's no guarantee of finding another place within reasonable distance of where we work, where we buy groceries, etc.
"bUt If LaNdLoRdS dOn'T rEnT oUt HoUsInG wHeRe WiLl PeOpLe LiVe?!"
If landlords/property companies all were forced to sell every place they owned except housing they specifically lived in, the market would have such a glut of housing that prices would nosedive in nearly every city in the US, possibly to the point where normal, average working people could buy one. Houses and apartments do not blink out of existence because a landlord stops renting them out. Why do I see this dumbass line of logic so fucking often.
People literally cannot wrap their minds around the fact that landlords (and I include property companies--the kind that own multiple apartment complexes--as landlords) don't create or do anything of value. "But when I need the water heater fixed, the landlord fixes it." Except for some mom'n'pop landlord operations that insist on DIY'ing everything, your landlord is not the one who is fixing it. The person who physically comes to your unit and fixes it is the person who fixes it, and your landlord is just an expensive gatekeeper who decides for you whether you actually need your water heater fixed. If you owned the place you could have insurance against that kind of thing, you could put money in a co-op that pays for that kind of thing (like condo associations do), or you could just pay out of pocket for it if you have the money. If you did take on the risk of repairing it yourself, the only person who would suffer is you. But you wouldn't be at the mercy of some dipshit who tries desperately not to get your water heater fixed (even though that's illegal), or who hires the cheapest person they could find (who might suck ass and make it worse), or insists on doing it themselves (whether they know what they're doing or not).
HUMANS REQUIRE SHELTER TO SURVIVE. The modern standard for housing includes things like locking doors, ceilings and windows that don't leak, walls that aren't covered in mold, and working electricity, plumbing, and hot water at a bare minimum. On top of that, we need shelter that's near enough to our place of employment and places to buy food, etc.
Landlords do not provide housing. They hold it ransom for as much money as they think they can get, because they know we need housing to survive. They buy up as much housing as they can (reducing the supply of available houses for sale) and then rent them out at a profit (which means more than they're paying on the mortgage, if they have one). They are hoarding housing, creating a false scarcity, and then profiting off of it.
WHY DID THIS HAVE TO END

I'm backing this product on Kickstarter!!!!!!
Agdgsgsgsg I’m LIVING for this Reef2Reef thread. This guy was worried about his urchins getting sunburnt so he made them little hats
IT GETS BETTER
In the wild these urchins will in fact carry a small rock or shell exactly on top like this and im so happy there's people taking advantage of that and who care about their urchins as pets.
i visited an aquarium at some point, and our tour guide told that when the staff had a party, they put a little decorative plastic hat from a booze bottle into the sea urching tank, and just left it there because the sea urchins liked it, and kept taking turns in wearing it.
Discovering that sea urchins wearing hats is a thing in this world means so much to me rn
They should make this an activity at aquariums
"Hey kids, who wants to make sea urchin hats?!"
Reminds me of my writing professor who said we get Halloween off because he would rather spend it with his kids than all of us🤣
Early season 1 when Aang is talking to Roku instead of being chained up sokka katara and zuko are thrown into a cell together
Zuko: oh spirits this is bad. Fuck fuck fuck my father’s going to kill me
Sokka: wtf??? How is this bad for you?? Ur the prince?? Like we’re w/ the avatar obvi this is bad for us but why the fuck are you even in the cell??
Zuko: I’m banished, idiot. By going into fire nation waters I’ve committed treason and greatly disrespected my father! He’ll be furious with me!!
Katara: ur his son I’m sure it won’t be that bad
Zuko: the last time I disrespected him he burned half my face off
Katara and Sokka: *horrified silence*
Sokka: oh my fucking spirits that’s awful
Zuko: what? No it’s not. It was my fault
Sokka:
Katara: *repeatedly under her breath* wtf wtf wtf wtf-
Sokka:
Sokka: zuko I cannot stress enough how much that was not your fault
Zuko: yes it was I spoke out of turn and disrespected him in front of his whole war council. He had every right to punish me how he saw fit, including banishing me
Sokka: he banished and burned half your face off just because you talked out of turn??!?????
Zuko: I mean I insulted one of his generals but the man was planning on sacrificing an untrained unit for no reason! It would have been a massacre! Quit judging me!!
Sokka: tui and la what the fuck
Katara: ok. zuko we’re adopting you now
Zuko: what?? No you’re not???
Cue zuko going along with them when aang busts them out bc he has no other options, having to stay with them cus they’re lowkey kidnapping him/he has no other option, and our boi slowly joining them/realizing what happened was fucked up. Also katara introducing him to their dad as “sokkas boyfreind slash your new son and my new brother”
oh oh oh oh oh oh my gods I'm not sure I've ever wanted a fic so badly in my life oh my gods And Zuko being all confused like you were not there? I had not even told you the entire story before you formed an opinion? How tf can you say it wasn't my fault? Katara: *deep breathing* Sokka: Okay so. You are like. MAYBE one or two years older than me. You are barely an adult, if that. Your father had no right - Zuko: What does my age have to do with it? I was an unruly child! How else was I going to learn? Katara: Zuko I'm going to ask you this once, and then I'm going to need you both to pray that I don't somehow have some Waterbender version of the Avatar state: your scar looks like it's been healed a while. How long ago did this happen? Zuko: A bit over two years ago? Why? *Five minutes later* Aang: Wow, guys! What happened? I couldn't find you but then I could hear you both yelling from the other side of the island!
Djdhdjjchchd I love this addition
Also, 2 days later while zuko is still lowkey being kiddnapped Aang is in the woods foraging a little bit away from camp and just hears this being yelled:
What do you mean you didn’t fight back?!??!?
You were thirteen????
You were kneeling????
He said WHAT!?!????!
Aang is. Very concerned.
It’s quiet for ten minutes before sokka yells:
“Holy shit no one knew the avatar was gonna come back when he banished you!!!”
Zuko haz no idea how to deal with ppl being upset on his behalf
Aang and up finding out what they were talking about. And he gets so pissed he threatens to go straight to the fire lord, avatar state activated, and fight him right then and there for doing that to a child
They stop him of course
But Aang still wants to do it
Aang: All life is sacred
Zuko: Yeah my Dad scarred me when I was 13 I deserved it though
Aang: . . .
Aang, arrows glowing: Most lives are sacred
