Meet Saraya: she was experiencing a mental health crisis. Police came and tackled her. She is 15.
Saraya Rees is a 15 year old biracial girl from Coos County, Oregon. After being abruptly instructed to stop taking her antidepressants by a local pediatrician, Saraya went into psychosis. In her manic state, Saraya poured a small amount of gasoline on the floor. Her parents called Coos Health & Wellness in hope that that would send mental health advisors, Coos Health & Wellness sent the police. While still in psychosis, the officers arrested her, questioned her without her family or lawyers present, charged with attempted murder and assault, and sent her to juvenile prison for 11 years.
ELEVEN.YEARS.
This is not justice.
This is inhumane.

Happy Birthday, Classy, Snazzy Teacher Man!
My history teacher was taking role today and did very exaggerated formal titles for everyone (ex. Ms. *last name*, Mr. *last name*) bc he’s classy like that but my non-binary arse was like “ohno uhoh” and he finally gets to me and goes Ms. *insert my last name*? And I go “here.” And he looks at me, furrows his brows and goes “is that ur preferred pronoun?” I’m like “..nah.” And he goes “okay, what is it?” And I say “um, they/ them.” And he says “alright, so what formal title would you like me to use?” Me: “uh… I dunno.” Him: “would you rather I don’t use one?” Me: …yea. THEN: this COMPLETELY ACCEPTING STRAIGHT CIS AND GREAT 40 yr old dude goes “hm…. OH! What about colonel?” And he gets all excited and I’m like “…I actually love that.” And he goes “perfect. colonel *insert my last name*?” And I’m like “here!” And he mumbles under his breath “that’s a dope ass formal abbreviation.” & since this is the teacher the class doesn’t say a darned thing other than correct themselves w my pronouns. Then goes along w the rest of the role call like he didn’t just bless my entire life. Then for the rest of the class he referred to me as colonel.
Working on art. Listening to this for inspiration.

Hmm...can you post it on both??
If I found two bunnies in my backyard and took a picture (it’s a pretty crappy picture but it’s still a picture) should it go on my main blog or my blog for things I find?
bitches be like “she’s my babygirl” and it’s a grown ass man
Favorite character 💜

Shadow stay beating Sonic's ass across mediums
hold on a fucking second. delaware is a state?? i thought it was a river? or is the river more important than the state? why don't i know this? (i should mention i don't like in america, i'm just confused)
there is delaware (state) and delaware (river)
both are equally strange
the state is a tiny little cryptid thing
the rive is a monster that spans new york, pennsylvania, new jersey and delaware. also washington crossed it once and that was like kinda a big deal i guess. like crossing the rubicon in rome.
the state tries to me more important with its “im the first state!!!” bs (seriously its even on the fucking license plates) but we all know. its the river.
She/Her, 25. I fangirl about various things: books, movies, animes, etc. I'm pretty chill when I'm not a nervous disaster 😅 Nice to meet ya!
