A friend of mine posted this and tagged my old instagram account, asking me to share it. I figured sharing it here where I actually have a following, would be far better.

Please remember that just because the government is giving into pressure and greed, that doesn’t mean that any of this is getting any better, in a lot of ways it’s getting worse. And even if you yourself aren’t being as heavily affected anymore, there are people and communities that are.

DO NOT KICK A GOOSE. Geese are very important for nature as they maintain insect populations and they help pick weeds that try to kill useful plants! Geese are good, they’re just grumpy. Never kick one because you could fatally injure them. They do not have the bone structure to survive a strong kick.

I had to deal with this a lot because my family bred geese. Geese are not happy about their eggs being taken so after you take one, they remember for their whole lives. We had a farm, we did what we had to do in order to survive. We loved our geese and our geese loved us, just not when we were taking their babies.

Do not kill Geese just because they’re mean. Please

Yes you could crawl towards them, but that only works if it’s one goose. If it’s more than one attacking you, you can yeet them as they get close.

This post was about white geese, which is what we bred, but you can do this for Canadian geese too! Because attacking a Canadian goose can get you a fine and even jail time, this is a much nicer approach to being attacked by a goose.

Also for some reason a lot of replies are saying this can break a goose’s neck???? It can’t??? Don’t spread lies. Geese are built to be picked up by the neck and they have tons of muscles in their necks to support being thrown. This is how they fight each other. It doesn’t hurt them. Just stuns them.

“I keep telling you. It’s not just the police. Doctors treat us horribly and act as if we’re faking. After my C-section they sent me home with no pain medicine. Let me repeat: they cut open my stomach, ripped out a child and sent me home with nothing.

I had to beg one of the nurses for pain medicine as she saw me in pain. My chart even had the time I was supposed to get it. She treated me as if I was a liar. It was a day after surgery and I was getting feeling back in my legs. I felt everything.

When I went back to have my scar inspected my PA looked shocked that it looked good. I go to the post interview and the assistant goes “they were shocked your scar was so smooth. He usually does an awful staple job on brown women. It’s probably because your husband is white”.

Anyways, Black and Brown women receive disparate care and it’s killing us. The Maternal mortality rate is almost five times higher than that of White women. Our healthcare system needs reform. Everyone has a right to fair, ethical, equal medical care.
