Welcome to the Pine Barrens

The same thing happened to 9/11 firefighters and EMTs.

YEP. Seeing this every day. Bosses putting signs around the facility saying “thank you, heroes” and “all that you do is amazing” and, okay, appreciation is good. But how much of this is really just about trying to give us those warm fuzzies so we don’t quit? 

cops boast about how indispensable they are to keeping order, but when the NYPD went on a two week strike in 2015 to protest the dismissal of the cop who killed eric garner, crime rates went down because no one was ticketing poor people and minorities, and violent crime rates (homicide, rape, assault, robbery) decreased as well. 

can’t forget the time when the mayor threatened to investigate corruption within the NYPD and thousands of off duty cops swarmed city hall and blocked the Brooklyn bridge and destroyed plenty of property with the full support of the officers on duty. being held accountable is apparently an okay reason to riot, but the murder of Black people is not. abolish the fucking cops.

Its SO funny to me that onion’s “fan” account hasn’t posted anything since ppl found it and figured out it was likely a fake account sksksksk

As an ex-mormon, I’m gonna look the fuck into this. I want nothing to do with the church that shaped so much toxicity about my self image and my sexual orientation.

Ex mormon here - this guy’s legit. The Mormon holds your files for eternity, and when they find out that you’ve moved to a new area, they will send members and missionaries from that region to harass you. I know this sounds like dystopic bullshit, but they followed my father through three moves before he rejoined the church.

Also ex mormon here who used this. It’s a ridiculously helpful service that is incredibly easy to use. They keep you updated throughout the whole process, and it’s totally worth it since the church doesn’t get to keep all your private information and pass it around once you resign :)
