This person was posting that they were in desperate need for money for rent for their family and had been retweeted by a mutual aid account I follow but I was on my way into the grocery store and forgot about it til the morning and when I went back to see if they met their goal, they had deleted all mention of needing help and were just posting weird anime fanart as usual. Is this normal? Obviously america is not normal and we shouldn’t have to be constantly bailing eachother out online. But is this like normal to post how desperately you need help and then erase everything within 24 hours like it didn’t happen? They did post a screenshot of their PayPal where they received $600 but that’s been erased as well. Maybe they think keeping the tweets up will ruin the aesthetic of their anime fanart account? Or maybe they’re embarrassed to have to ask for help in the first place? It’s impossible to know. Being online is weird.

i’ve spent my whole life chasing this high

whatever solution there is for school shootings, it's clearly not putting in a guy who makes $130,000 a year to wander around a high school with a gun.

I honestly believe police unions should be abolished, perhaps losing that safety blanket will force these guys to actually do their jobs, or at the very least quit once they realize they actually need to risk their lives to protect the people they’re supposed to.

This article goes on to explain that the police responders stood outside the club and arrested “every single victim there and held them for 10 to 12 hours” and that the events started around 2am, and it took police until 5am to stop the shooter after they crashed an armored truck through the fucking wall and shot him.
