Unfiltered Madness

Heres a not so friendly reminder, as an lgbt metis person, i dont give a single fuck what your blog is themed or if this is too painful for you to look at. Reblog this post. Reblog this post with the sources of the 751 children who were found.

Your compliance and silence as well as the compliance and silence of your ancestors is what allowed these schools to open and kill first nations children. The children of MY people.

Dont follow me if you cant reblog this post or the one with sources to your political blog or your most popular blog. Add trigger warnings if you must but if your political blog is only focused on the harms you personally face like being lgbt then you need to see some bigger pictures and stop being afraid of angering your racist mutural or actually saying some shit about racism. If you can reblog some antifa graphics or add blm to your bio to be a surface level ally, you can reblog some sources on the genocide first nations people faced and still face today.

They were CHILDREN.

Forget “first they came for the socialists” and any talk of how this could happen to anyone. This is the only Holocaust quote I want to hear in your mouths.

For the dead AND the living we must bear witness. For those murdered and those whose bodies lived with murdered spirits. For those who managed to survive at unspeakable cost. For those who still live with no idea where their children are and can only hope that testing on these bodies doesn’t bring officials to their doors with the worst news any parent could hear. For those who will open their doors and find those officials. For those who lived and died with their pain never acknowledged, with no relatives remaining.

For the dead and the living we must bear witness. And we must not stop the pursuit of justice until every person still living who had a hand in this—whether clergy or teacher or government representative—has faced the judgment of those they wronged. Forget a jury of their peers. They deserve a jury of their victims.

listen up everyone

this show is The Shit

and I need to talk about it. 

First of all the plot is *chef’s kiss* beautiful. 

from wikipedia bc I don’t know how to say it it’s too complicated: 

Following an abrupt transfer, Secret Service agents Pete Lattimer and Myka Bering find themselves in the middle of South Dakota at a massive, top-secret storage warehouse that holds every strange artifact, mysterious relic, out-of-this-world object and supernatural souvenir ever found by the U.S. government. Lattimer and Bering’s new task, as directed by the warehouse’s caretaker, longtime agent Artie Nielsen, is to investigate reports of unexplainable and paranormal activity in an effort to secure more peculiar and dangerous objects, and to help Artie manage the warehouse itself. 

Second of all the characters are so goddamn charismatic.

 Myka Bering. Knows 11 languages, can fence, likes Shakespeare, has a love-hate relationship with sugar, is 100% done with your shit

Pete Lattimer. Goofball, has severe abandonment issues, kinda dumb at times but Means Well, very friendly, golden labrador in human form, gets Vibes that help him sense when things are off

Arthur “Artie” Nielsen, Grumpy, pretends not to like anyone but secretly does, History and Science nerd, once committed national treason but it was for a good cause, Father Figure, protective

Mrs. Frederic:  Boss Ass Bitch, kinda scary but you love her anyway, Do Not Disobey, possibly immortal, unproblematic Dumbledore, you’ll never see her leave a room… she just… disappears, utter Goddess, very big dick energy

Leena: Likes to bake, vintage fashion sense, Pure Cinnamon Roll who Must Be Protected, can read people’s auras. 

Claudia Donovan. Can hack computers, listens to heavy metal music, Very Good Style, clever, sassy, her brother was trapped in an inter-dimensional space for a couple years but she figured out how to get him back and now he works in Switzerland

H.G. WELLS IS ACTUALLY  A TIME-TRAVELLING BI WOMAN SCIENTIST INVENTOR AND GENIUS 

who kicks ass, knows many languages and almost ends the world a couple times

Steve Jinks, a gay character who is just casually gay. It isn’t brought up very often other than when his ex shows up or he makes a joke about it. Can tell when people are lying, Buddhist, salty about his dead sister but helps get past it, him and Claudia are Best Friend Goals. 

Benedict Valda creepy af but has a good heart, very Sinister

Finally, the Found Family trope is literally the entire show.  YOU get some found family-

YOU get some found family-

YOU get some found family-

it also has That Steampunk Aesthetic ™.

Ya’ll don’t have any idea how fucking brave and needed these plot lines were.

This was before Ellen came out.

This was before civil unions.

This was before Don’t Ask Don’t Tell.

This was when your ass could be fired, blacklisted, and shunned with no legal protections for even being hinted at being gay.
