I’m not reblogging this to be a pontificating dick, but rather I hope you see this reblog then look this up on your own and learn something about your people and the history that shaped their fate during the Holocaust.
Look up a book titled War Against the Weak: Eugenics and America's Campaign to Create a Master Race by Edwin Black. You don’t even need to read it. Just read what it’s about. You’ll learn that America has a very dark untold history of the United States government inspiring a young Adolf Hitler with the ideology of Eugenics before the Nazi party was even conceived.
If this information about America’s past isn’t news to you then the uprising of a Nazi party in the United States is oddly unphasing you and you should really be more concerned.
sure, when my grandfather fought nazis and fascism he was “a hero” and “on the right side of history” but when i do it im “way too sensitive” and “no better than they are”

Do you ever say something “wrong”
But you’re not sure what was wrong with it, you just know people aren’t reacting the way you think they should have, so you want to apologize but you don’t know what to apologize for? Because I’m getting that a lot right now and it’s really alienating.

Me: is this a meltdown or a shutdown or a panic attack or an emotional flashback?

Just want to thank everyone who was there for me—and still is—when I really needed it
None of them use tumblr though so I guess this thanks kinda falls on deaf ears

I, regrettably, never got the chance to finish this project and give it to my mom before she unexpectedly passed away almost 5 months ago.
My advice, if you make something with your hardware, and it’s going to be for another person, don’t put it off: make it ASAP. Make something with it and give it to that person that’s special in your life as soon as you conveniently can, because you never know if the chance is going to pass you by, until it suddenly does and it’s too late.
Maybe I’m just paranoid. But this little project is one of the many, many things on my list of guilts and regrets surrounding my mom’s untimely death. There is so much I wanted to say to her and thank her for and I never took the nearly-infinite opportunities I had to do that.
She never told me directly, byt I found this out from other people, that she expected to outlive me because of my connective-tissue disorder, and I personally semi-believed this as well... which is yet another reason why I shouldn’t have put this off and should have told her how I felt as soon as I possibly could. I guess I had so much denial surrounding my own death that I didn’t even fathom the possibility of her dying before me.
Everyone reading (which is probably no one so good for you): If you have something to say or to give to someone special in your life so you can express how you truly feel for that person, do it. Do it asaFp.
Tomorrow is never promised.
The next few hours of your life aren’t even promised.
And no matter how devoted in your faith you are, an afterlife is not promised either.
Try to show your love for someone while you still can before it’s too late and you or that other person are gone. I know this is something a lot of people say and it’s easy to let it go one ear and out the other, but that’s because we as people don’t want to sit here and think about the possible reality of so-n-so dying not being here anymore. I mean who the fuck wants to think about that.
Well honey, think about it. Embrace it and the emotions associated with it. You don’t want to think about so-n-so dead. It’s extremely hard to even imagine until this person is actually gone from your life, especially if their death is nothing expected. But if you’ve lost -anyone- in your life, close or otherwise, use that feeling to drive you to express your current love to others as truthfully as you can and as soon as you can. This isn’t something you can rain-check. And you’ll hate yourself for what feels like forever. Trust me.





Currently in the works of making something out of the metal hardware that was in my back for 2 ½ years. I’m gonna give it to my mama since she was the person who mostly took care of me during my surgery and recovery.

This grief is insurmountable. If the psych hospital would allow me to have my crochet needle and yarn I would have admitted myself by now.

The “WHAT ARE THOSE” meme came from this video that was filmed in The Bay. They’re BART police.
Another hometown thing that Ryan Coogler slipped into Black Panther when Shuri said the line to T’Challa

This showed up on my activity feed after someone liked it about a month ago.
I never got the chance to finish this project or give it to my mom before she died.
Great. Just another thing to add to my list of regrets and guilt.
I can’t stop crying.

Such a small world
One of my old coworkers from my old movie theatre job—who is now an LVN—currently works in my Psychiatrist’s office by sheer coincidence. He used to be kind of a party-boy hood rat who turned his life around by going back to school and to church in his early 20’s.
Anyway, every time I have had a question for my psychiatrist or a message I needed to relay, especially these past few months with having to go through my mom’s death and the accompanying grief/depression, this LVN has always responded ASAP with all the information I need and to see if there is anything else he can do for me to help me in my time of need, and then followed up with me to see how I was doing.
Words can’t describe how much I appreciate him and how proud I am of him that he’s been able to grow as a person, finish school, and establish a successful career that so happens to directly impact my life and my well-being in a positive way. Thanks Andrew, you are a real super hero in scrubs. You’ll probably never see this post but I can’t exactly express this on other platforms. You da real mvp ❤️

I just want to thank everyone who has reached out to me and my family in these very trying times. It helps me hold it together. I also want to thank the @cvifd and the first responders for responding and arriving as quickly as they did on Wednesday which turned out to be one of the worst days of my life. It’s all incredibly unfair and my heart hurts, like literally, hurts. Mom I miss you so much 💔 Kimberly Deal Alatorre 10/03/1969-10/25/2017 If anyone has any questions for me feel free to DM me. I truly apologize if you knew my mother and you are finding out this way through IG but I don’t use Facebook so this is the best way to reach me short of texting me.
