So someone pointed out to me recently that in a few years, maybe a few decades, the history of the us during covid is probably going to get twisted. The fact that we all had to make and wear cloth masks is going to be hailed as a symbol of how we “"came together as a nation”“” or whatever the fuck propaganda spin they try to put on it.
So I just want to say, for the record, the time of the corona virus pandemic was not a time when america came together.
This was a time when people hoarded toilet paper and sanitizing supplies either for themselves or to sell at absurd prices to the desperate people who didn’t get to the store soon enough during the shortages
This was a time when scared parents were sending their kids to finish school in the spring in plastic trash bags because they couldn’t think of any other way to possibly keep their families safe
This was a time when grocery store and retail and service workers were forced to keep working whether they wanted to risk their health or not because they couldn’t make rent otherwise and the people with enough privilege to have remote jobs tried to repay them with applause instead of fair wages
This was a time when nurses had the hold the hands of multiple dying people every day as their families watched their loved ones die over a video call because the hospital couldn’t risk having visitors
This was a time when city governments had to handle so many eviction hearings that they rented out convention centers and called in the national guard instead of doing a rent freeze to stop predatory landlords
This was a time when racism and police brutality were so unbearably horrible that people protested in the streets for months even though there was a god damn pandemic that our federal government wasn’t doing shit to stop and the cops were so mad that they were being asked to stop beating up black people that they were beating up everyone
This was a time when schools being forced to reopen in the fall or lose their federal funding had to draft templates for letters if a teacher or a staff person or a fucking child died from exposure to corona at school
This was a time when the president of the United states demanded that the cdc stop releasing data about all the people who were dying because of the warnings he ignored for months were making him look bad
This was a time when some state governments didn’t mandate masks and forced businesses to reopen because they didn’t want to pay unemployment to people trying to stay safe at home anymore
This was a time when Jeff Bezos was on track to be a fucking trillionare because everyone was ordering things on amazon instead of going to the store and the people he worked to death to get it didn’t see a single cent of it
This was a time when instead of providing homeless people with housing, we painted boxes on the ground to show homeless people how far away the had to be on the street to maintain social distancing
We did not come together to make cloth masks. Cloth masks represent nothing less than the absolute and utter failure of a nation’s government to inform and protect its citizens
This was not a time when we came together. This was a time when we survived, and not all of us made it.
This was a time when people casually talked about how many human lives the economy was worth without considering the evil that had just come out of their mouths.
This was a time when thousands of us died for profit and the ego of a cheating narcissists con man who scammed his way into the white house
This was a time that we survived. Most of us tried to do the right thing, stay home, limit trips to the store and socializing, wear a mask. And still, so many of us were lost. Thousands every day.
But that wasn’t a good enough reason for some people, for those among us who were too selfish to recognize the responsibilities we have toward one another as human beings.
This was not a time that we came together
This was a time that we survived
Not all of us made it
And those of us who did survive will never forget the evil we saw daily in our politicians and those around us

IT LOADED THE TAG OH MY GOD-
Still can't get the fic I'm hoping to read asap before class starts preferably?
*sigh*
I always read before class to get awake especially now because covid has basically made it impossible for me to get a coffee at school and drink it inside.
I'm unfortunately very sensitive to outside temperatures and I cool down rapidly... and it's always a chaotic field trip and a half to get me to warm back up...
Anyways, can this nightmare end soon? Thanks! ^-^'

I’m so tired..
Tumblr media
I’m falling into another deep depressive episode again. The fact that I am still unemployed since 2018, being trapped with an emotionally abusive mother kills me. She berated and insulted me today about me being lazy and useless when my blood pressure was very low and unable to do anything. I’m tired of struggling financially while everyone I know including my nephews have jobs and I dont as no one wishes to hire me. Meanwhile, my own dysfunctional family assumes I like being this way.
I tried to drown myself in my own bathtub last year and that intense feeling came again while I took a hot bath after feeling awful. Luckily, I fought against the urge and drained the tub, only to shower instead. 
I hate the fact I can’t escape this place and I wished i lived alone and away from my abusive mother and the drama in this household but sadly I need an income for that. I’m just so tired of it.
If anyone wishes to help me feel free to. It’s on my kofi:

I have a sale going on too…please take advantage of it.

If you can share my store to other people so I can get more customers, I’d greatly appreciate it…I’ll even do freelance work. Anything helps..
Hopefully I can actually start and finish the first comic of the month by wednesday as I don’t see myself having the energy to do anything else tonight..

Thanks for your time, Going to sleep early.

Currently regretting my stupid younger self's idiot mistakes and contemplating on pulling the plug on the channel.
Like- deleting it altogether.
My face is out there alongside my real name somewhere in the deep dark of the web archives.
Im falling apart all over again over real life as well. Once again something in me is screaming at myself to just fucking quit school. What's te point anyways? Graduation will never happen to me anyways.
I failed once and I'll fail again.
I just wish there was a fucking rewind buttonto stop myself from ever making the channel.
It's a liability. My entire online presence is, in fact, a big fat danger to my privacy. Hell, you guys probably have enough information scattered on this blog alone to figure out my identity.
I dont know if I can keep this up. I'd have to delete EVERYTHING because of the stupid email adress i use for so many things. Hell, I'd probably have to buy minecraft again if I cant change that fucking mail...
I NEED A FUCKING LIFE RESET Y'ALL ITS TOO REAL ITS TOO MUCH-
Either that, or I'd have to embrace this lack of privacy forever...
FUCKING HELL IM SUCH A MESS.

Jedi Heist
what if Anakin formed bonds with like, everyone, but nobody realized it, so when order 66 happens…. and those bonds snap…..he goes catatonic.
Order 66 is given while Anakin is warning the Council of Darth Sidious’ true identity
so Mace gets to witness his reaction to all these bonds snapping. So maybe the focus goes from lets go kill Palpatine to evacuate everyone in the Temple, we have to go now!
Coruscant has been bombed a lot of times in the galaxy’s history, the Jedi Order must have back up Temples to fall back on in times of need!
They could command (steal) a Star Destroyer.
Star Destroyers are a bit recognizable, so it would depend on the Temple population and what is available in their ship hangar.
They would probably take all the shuttles and individual fighters before they steal a Star Destroyer.
I just really like heists. Especially improbable ones.
The Leverage crew helps with the heist, just for funsies.
Depending on how traceable the Order accounts are, heists actually might be necessary to get what they need to survive.
Hondo suddenly gets a bunch of scarily competent Force Sensitives helping liberate resources from the newly formed Empire.
Hondo gets a crew that is loyal to him.
He’s not quite sure what to do with that.
Omg please let Hondo have a Jedi crew and steal a star destroyer.
Hondo would go along with it as if it had been his long-term goal all along.
Anakin needs to keep his mind and hands busy, so pirate ships get quite the reputation as far as performance goes, because he put all the mods he could into them. All the droids and all the ships get modifications that make them more dangerous and more efficient.
The pirate Jedi all learn to make synthetic crystals, because going to Illum or other planets with kyber crystals is just too dangerous.
They start putting kyber crystals in everything that can become better with them, because feeling them around help mask how many of their people are missing.
They also start kidnapping and de-chipping clones, because YES

I fucked up big time...
...and my stupid conscience pays the price. I feel miserable.
I can't believe that this is all it took to make me break. Everything is falling apart around me. I don't know hop to pick myself back up from the rubble.
I aparently didn't miss just 1 exam last week, but TWO. Fucking hell. On top of that, I have a big Philosophy exam in two days and my brainis going panic mode, because of another responsibility I agreed to take on.
The movie project for the school's christmas celebration. I agreed to edit the footage, but I raninto major trouble with it and now I don't think ill be able to finish it in time.
I wanted to doit because I've edited on my phone before. For YT, yk? Either way, I am currently having a breakdown over everything crashing onto me now.
I fucking need a break from this, I can't take this shit anymore. I wanna quit school so bad.
But I can't. I'll dissapoint everyone.
My teachers who are rooting for me, my family (especially my mother and my younger sister who's studying psychology already) and my friends who believe in me; I'd let them all down.
I can't do it, so it just hurts. I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place and don't know what to do anymore.
(Is this my ADHD acting up? I dont fucking know anymore at this point. I just know that i fucking bawled my eyes out and feel empty.)
So yeah, life is hell; I fucked up big time and now I pay the price for it. I'm an emotional crying mess. Or I was; I've kinda calmed down typing this out? IDK; it's like tumblr absorbed all my emotions like a sponge...
