A few years ago, when I was waiting in line at Chipotle, there was a white male cop walking through the restaurant with his food to go. When he passed by a table with three young black children (they were around 5-7 years, they looked very young) that were laughing and enjoying dinner with their family, he stopped, stuck his finger in their faces, and said, “I’ll definitely see you guys later in life”.

He then left, smiling and holding himself up like he had just won something. The children were no longer laughing, and their mother looked like she wanted to cry. It was so disgusting, what he did. These people were just trying to have a nice dinner with their children. The children were just laughing and playing together. They weren’t doing anything different from any other family sitting down eating in that Chipotle.

For a cop come up to A FIVE, SIX, SEVEN YEAR OLD CHILD and basically tell them in so many words that he’ll be taking them to jail someday is just so fucking wrong on so many levels, and it was all because they were black.

Cops don’t go around pointing their fingers in five year old white children’s faces, criminalizing them because of their appearance. The racial bias that cops have against black children is very, disturbingly real.

Long story short, I know tons of you are students and are low on cash and I also know a great majority of you have cats and dogs which can become pricey while taking care of. 

This site (mypuppy.ca) is giving away FREE puppy food plus valuable coupons AND a leash collar which you can engrave on the back (either at home if you have the materials or at your local pet store and since you already have the collar, it saves you money).

Don’t worry, if you have a kitten you  can get the same perks right here (mykitten.ca)!

Update! 

You can also get a FREE pet safety pack here [somewhere on (aspca.org)] to alert firefighters and policemen that you have pets in the house in case of an emergency

and a FREE Dog vitamin sample  here [somewhere on (chesapeakeanimalhospital.com)] which provides your dog with five vitamin samples which you can give them periodically to keep them healthy!

Even if you don’t have a puppy or kitten, please reblog this to help your followers!!!

Most people seem to be under the impression that Homestuck has a convoluted Act structure that makes no sense. But I will demonstrate that actually, it is quite straightforward! Here is a list as follows.

As you can clearly see, it couldn’t possibly be any simpler. Makes me wonder why I even bothered.
