discourse topic of the night: mini m&ms are objectively better than normal m&ms.
90% of the people in the notes are just saying the same thing over and over about the candy to chocolate ratio, but i’d really like to give a shoutout to this person, for wording it in the most cursed way they could manage
honestly unpopular opinion but john probably would be too into obscure & shitty movies to fully adapt to the minecraft experience. rose/jade/dave are all super isolated kids who probably LIVE the minecraft life (albeit ironically in roses case) but john is like…so fucking confused. he tries to build red stone shit immediately and fails and swears off the game unless he’s coming into his pals server to grief. he’s a gremlin cmon now
john would do minor griefs that are invonvenient without being outright destructive such as filling his friends houses full of web or water or filling all their chests with stacks of dirt
“Boone, Hays, and Myers encountered a man identified as L.H. in the crowd and arrested him. The undercover detective, a 22-year veteran of the police force, was dressed as a protester and providing information to officers about potential criminal activity in the crowd.
According to the indictment, Boone, Hays, and Myers used unreasonable force: throwing the detective to the ground, kicking him, and hitting him with a riot baton “while he was compliant and not posing a physical threat to anyone.”
When they learned that he was an undercover officer, the three men then lied about what they had done and accused him of resisting arrest, the indictment said. They tried to contact L.H. to convince him not to pursue disciplinary or legal action, and Boone, Hays, and Myers also met with or texted various potential witnesses to try to get them to join the cover-up, the indictment states.”
What about when Nazis intimidate or oppress me for walking while Jewish? That’s just free speech, right?
This was introduced by Daniel Donovan (R-NY). If the name sounds familiar, its because he’s the attorney who failed to indict Eric Garner’s murderer. It’s very clear where his loyalties lie.

I’m sure we can all very civily share our concerns with the esteemed congressman.
[ID: a series of tweets. from Lirael Lowenstein - 1: “Unmasking Antifa Act introduced to house of congress. You could get a maximum of 15 years in prison just for wearing a mask at a protest. 2: Notably, there is not even evidence that said bill is intended to be applied neutrally. If you follow the link, its authors refer to it as the “Unmasking Antifa Act of 2018.” (link here.) 3: So under this bill, if you “intimidate” or “oppress” (talk about vague terms) a nazi organizer at a rally, while wearing anything that could be construed as a disguise or mask, it would be a federal crime for which you could get up to 15 years in prison.
from Heather - 1: If any journalist who covers protests thinks this wouldn’t affect them personally because they’ve never assaulted anyone, I’d like to introduce you to the Ferguson police who dumped me out of my wheelchair & charged me for “assault on an officer” for filming on a public sidewalk. 2: If any journalist thinks this wouldn’t affect them personally because they don’t engage in vandalism, I’d like to introduce you to the St Louis police who kettle random groups of protesters, journalists, & bystanders three hours after minor vandalism several blocks away. end image description.]

so what? why should i care about this?
the bill is vague, for one thing. “intimidate” and “oppress” are very unclear descriptors, meaning people could be put in jail for upwards of 15 years just for being at a protest wearing a mask.
as @sylviahook pointed out (and thank you for saying this in your own reblog): this also affects disabled people who need to wear filtration masks in public for any reason
(environmental allergens including pollen and artificial scents, asthma due to pollution, compromised immunity, etc.).
who is Daniel Donovan?
he was the attorney who was on Eric Garner’s murder case.
eric garner was a black man who was killed by a police officer in a choke hold. his last words were “i can’t breathe,” which became a tagline for a series of protests. (source 1, source 2)
he is currently sponsoring the unmasking antifa act. (source 1, source 2)
