solidarity with osha. i love a good railing
finally found a future 10k post in the wild
Ok, this house is weird. Firstly, I was wondering what was up w/the garage door.
Turns out it's a mirror. Built in 1955 in Palm Springs, CA, it's been remodeled and you must see the choices. 3bds, 3ba, 2,319 sq ft, $1,499,999.
Folks, folks. Hit the Keep reading button, you've got to see this floor.
the white house is now so right wing, the GOP turtle man is by default on "our side." Trump's only response to this so far is to insinuate he's lying about the polio. Classy!
not enough people understand that disability benefits are basically what it would look like if you turned "if you're too sick for school you're too sick for video games" into an official public policy
Sometimes I love the internet, actually. Incomprehensibly huge place but also so small. Saw a video on Instagram where Crayola was announcing theyโre coming out with a box with some limited edition previously retired colors, including Dandelion. This video had hundreds of comments and almost all of them where โomg whereโs the dandelion crayon girl sheโs going to be so happyโ and it was such an unimportant thing, but it was just cute
The tags on this post are also full of people happy for the dandelion crayon girl ๐ฅน
Update!! Dandelion crayon girl got her promo box!!
4. If the car pulls up to you run in the opposite direction.
5. Walk with your keys in your hands and keep a key between each finger
6. If they put you in the trunk kick out the headlights
7. If you get lost find a woman with a child. Never ask a man for help (this one was drilled)
That scream fire piece of advice is literally life saving
8. Watch your shadows and reflections, especially if someone is walking behind you. A split second notice is better than none and will help you.
Yes this last one really saves lives y'all I do it all the time
girls have to learn to view the world like international intelligence agents just to be safe walking down the street. smh.
guys pls pls pls reblog and girls pls pls pls be safe out there. terrifying and so sad that we have to worry about this on a daily basis
(Iโm an enby, but, frankly, this is helpful for anyone.)
- always tell someone where youre at and an approx time when youll be back
Add text replacement words in your phone if possible. Something short and memorable that you can send quickly to people in moments of emergencies.
E.g.
I f ing hate that we need to reblog this, people suck, but this will save lives.
DO NOT SCROLL PAST
Being female fucking sucks but yes this shit is important for everyone
Also, do not walk close to walls. It will be easier for someone so walk past you and push you against it or corner you.
If your gut is telling you to cross the street or change your path, do it. Donโt risk it. Your body knows.
If you can, buy a large umbrella and walk holding it. Studies say that predators are less likely to attempt an attack on someone that could fight back. Keys around your knuckles is fine but youโll need to get very close to do damage. Umbrellas are more precise.
Avoid wearing headphones if you are alone on an empty street. Look aware.
Again: Stay. Away. From. Walls.
Entering an uber alone? Call your father (or anyone you trust) and say โhey dad! Yep, Iโm almost there, Iโm sending you the route.โ outloud. Then proceed to send them the route so they can follow the uber drive. This will most likely intimidate the predator.
If you see someone in an uncomfortable or possibly dangerous situation, walk up to them and say โBetty, oh my god, I havenโt seen you in so long!โ. If she gets slightly confused, you can whisper and let her know youโre trying to help and that she should follow along. Walk together to another station or away from where you are. The man will most likely not follow. I have done this one 2 times and can be very helpful.
If you are unsure she needs help, you can pass her a note saying something like โhey, I noticed this man beside you is making you uncomfortable. If youโd like help, fake a sneeze right now and I will come up to you and pretend we are friends.โ This is a long note, but its an example. Be discrete. If she follows along, proceed with the previous tip. This is helpful when youโre in a crowded train and you notice harassment.
Help your sisters. Trust them. Trust yourself. Be safe.
If you ever feel unsafe or need help, anyone is welcome to run upto me and ask me for help! Iโll go all mama bear and keep you safe!!!
I made this google doc covering 14 different self defense tips and tricks. it was made on January 15th, 2020 so it was before I decided Iโd come back to tumblr jhjshdbjfh.
EVERY TIME I SEE THIS I REBLOG BECAUSE THIS IS SUPER IMPORTANT!!!!!
I was as taught that if itโs a man and Iโm able, kick them as hard as possible in the balls. Apparently it hurts badly enough to render them unable to move/attack for a bit, long enough to call for help or run or beat him up further so he genuinely canโt continue to attack you
Yโall Iโm not a reblogger and I do NOT like heavy content on my account but this is something super important and itโs a big deal, I didnโt know a lot of this stuff and Iโve been educated on how to protect myself for a while, just proof how much reblogging this could save a life. Please keep passing it around.
Literally sobbing. A judge, a US judge defended us. A judge brought up intersex people, uaing the term intersex, to *defend* us by not allowing our erasure. I'm having a lot of feelings right now
If youโre having a bad day, just remember that someone somewhere is seeing Safety Tips From Anubis for the very first time.
That person is me
as an egyptologist, this fake egyptian bothered me so much. so i fixed it.

"Inshalla he will OD soon" fucking sent me
Had to ban the phrase โtricky dickโ from my classroom during watergate lesson because saying the word dick in front of 30 fifteen year olds is like lighting a bomb and throwing it through the doorway but now theyโre just calling him Richard the Treacherous like theyโre all medieval peasants. gonna lose it
did i ever mention that gus and willow's friendship is one of my favorite things in the show? i needed more protective gus *cries*
willow definitely started crushing on hunter after seeing how good friends he'd become with gus ;w;
