안녕하세요! Hey everyone! I recently got an ask about my old masterlist, which is the same as my broken-down masterlist except it has all of my lessons on one page, rather than on multiple separate posts. Some may find this expanded version easier to navigate, so I’ll keep this up for y’all! My broken-up masterlist, of course, will still be available for those who find that more helpful :)

“Can I do your dishes while you study for your exam?”

i also apologize for my bad english. i’m ukrainian and writing this in a rush.

anyway.

TW: murder, death threats, homophobia, transphobia.

the russian LGBT community is in deep shit right now.

a russian LGBT rights activist elena grigoryevna was recently found dead with 8 stab wounds near her home.

the police didn’t do anything about it, despite how many people called out for help.

there’s also a russian anti LGBT group called “pila” (“chainsaw”). a couple of months prior they published a hit list of LGBT activists from russia. elena was on the list. and so are other people who are related to the community in some ways.

they stated that they prepared some “cruel gifts” to the people on the list. the beauty blogger andrew petrov (whose name is also on it) recently made a post for his followers that shed more light on the situation.

another activist, andrew shituhin is a victim of this organization. the addresses of his family, along with other personal information got published on the website. earlier he got kicked out of his university. he immigrated to netherlands, although recently he came to a town near moskow to live for a bit. his friend, zhenia svetski, is aimed at by this organization. in a threatening email “pila” stated that he will be killed before august if andrew doesn’t help him to immigrate to netherlands.

all i’m asking for is to spread this post so that more people from other countries are aware of the situation.

I’m gonna add a personal note here if you don’t mind.

This shit carousel is widespread as fuck. 

The “Pila” already have members in Chechnya, Dagestan, Bashkortostan, Tatarstan, Udmurtia, Samara Oblast, Sverdlovsk Oblast, Chelyabinsk Oblast, Saratov Oblast, Orenburg Oblast, Perm Krai and Stavropol Krai. Saint Petersburg also seems to have become their “hunting ground”. They’re planning to expand their activity even further and launch the persecution of the lgbt community in many more areas of Russia including Moscow itself.

They’ve basically admitted to nursing a wet dream of tracking down and murdering gay and trans people over the entire country. They may as well emerge in Ukraine and Belarus, according to their own statements. They’re talking about stuffing people with tranquilizers, kidnapping and taking them to Chechnya. They’re claiming that they’re protected by law.

The police won’t help us. They’ve been doing their best to ignore us for years at this point. The state has been doing its best to pretend that we don’t exist. 

Get it, guys: the state has passed the propaganda law to silence the lgbt, yet does nothing to silence the homophobes. The state has told us to do whatever we want “behind closed doors”, yet just recently the police have stormed the apartment of a same-sex couple (and their two adopted children) without any sensible reason. The state has basically made us go into hiding so that we “won’t disrupt the traditional values”. And when we did that, they immediately started searching for us. Lmfao.

Apparently, the traditional russian values are so delicate that they are disrupted by the sole fact that gays exist.

Now, the number of actual active “gayhunters” equals about a couple of hundred people. But the number of those who in one way or another support “Pila” is immense. According to the most recent surveys, more than half of Russian population is hostile or disdainful towards the lgbt community. Twitter users have launched a respective hashtag #ЗащититеЛюдейОтПилы (#ProtectPeopleFromPila), and replies under the most popular posts are already being filled with homophobic slurs and death threats. Those who send such messages do not bother to give any reasoning behind their point of view. That’s because they have no reasoning. There can’t be any reasoning. We’re simply surrounded by stupid, nonsensical, stubborn and evil people who are well aware of their impunity.

And that’s while gay activists who defend the simplest right for the lgbt to be valid members of society get brutally murdered.

Russia – our holy nation, am I right?

it was in awe lmao

then the hygienist and assistant all came over to look too and they were like “wooooow” and my ass was sitting there like

story time

okay so to preface this, my hometown where i’m originally from is a really fucking weird place. like from the outside it seems like a normal suburban town, but once you’re there for awhile you get the feeling that’s something’s not…quite all together. a lot of people are really fucking weird there — so much so that that was a running joke in school growing up, that people in the town were just like that. everyone knew not to go out to the farm lands surrounding the town especially at night, we called it “the cuts” and people used to disappear out there all the time or get shot at by the especially weird people that would live out there. the news was and still is truly a thing of horror. every time i come back i’m regaled with even more stories of crazy shit that has happened there.

to put it in perspective we generally never had “normal crime” like robbery or anything like that when i lived there, though that did happen sometimes. the news stories were always like, “a kid was kidnapped by local residents and tortured in a house around the corner,” “a random person was chased down and shot for sport in a really nice neighborhood,” “someone was gored to death by a bull while out car shopping,” etc. (these are all real, btw). everyone does drugs and the whole town is located really close to a government site where they test nuclear weapons and chemicals and shit. this is how i grew up, in this bizarre environment.

i need to preface it this way so that you get that it’s weird. it’s a fucking weird place. i used to listen to the welcome to night vale podcast and make comparisons from it to my hometown, that’s how weird it is.

i only say this so you know that this town is where i got my orthodontics from.

all the kids in my town went to this one particular orthodontist. i also used to go to a dentist in town that a lot of people went to as well. i had a permanent retainer put on my bottom teeth after braces and no one had ever said anything to me about the model of retainer itself or it being weird type of retainer at all. i saw a ton of other people (mostly other kids that were my age at the time) that had the same type of retainer as me too so i never thought about it.

so i kept my retainer in — it’s never caused me problems and it keeps my teeth straight, why not?

however i went to a dentist for the first time in a metropolitan area now, and when he saw it in my mouth his literal first reaction was to say “uh can i ask you a question….what the hell is that”

LITERALLY the words that he said

which in hindsight makes almost too much sense. of course my town of all towns would put these weird unnecessary contraptions in kids’ mouths, and of course it happened so much that everyone just thought it was normal. that sounds exactly, to a T, like my hometown.

my permanent bottom retainer is apparently this prototype that is so rare that he’s literally never seen it before in his life, not in dental school, nowhere. it’s not that it’s an outdated type, it’s just rare as fuck. they were still staring at pictures of it on my chart in wonder when i left the office.

I looked up the bull-murder thing OP mentioned and Tracy seemed to be only town that came up with a matching case. Though the man didn’t actually die from his injuries everything else matches up one for one. So just to make sure that it was the right town I looked to see if there was any murder-torture of young people in Tracy, and unfortunately there was. It was a 17 year old boy who escaped and survived the torture. And just to solidify that it was in fact Tracy I looked up shootings in residential areas and there was one of a 20 year old man who was shot and killed in a nice neighborhood.

Okay, but I decided to look into Tracy more to find out more information about it and the town is super suspicious. There’s been a lot of murders and shooting in the town. Back in 2009 an 8 year old girl, Sandra Cantu, was kidnapped and murdered by a Sunday school teacher who said she had no idea why she killed Sandra. Another case happened in 2018 when four underage boys were shot and one was killed by four teenage boys. There’s a lot of news stories on shootings, homicides, and drug busts in that town. It’s a really cute town from the outside, if you just look up Tracy, California there’s a lot of really cute businesses and nice articles on sweet things that happen in the town, but if you actually look into it the town is really sketchy.

i grew up in tracy

also i have to add another person’s tags to this since it’s honesty hour because they’re hilarious and true
