Round 1

YEAH, I KNOW. You guys are going to read about how I died in agony, and you’re going be like, “Wow! That sounds cool, Magnus! Can I die in agony too?”

-The Sword of Summer, Rick Riordan

I seem to have trouble dying.

-The Book of Negroes, Lawrence Hill

Let me tell you how I died five times in one day.

-The Captain, Will Wight

Say she is the loose light. Say she is the root. Say she ate at his table. Say she ate at all. Say she. Say she. Say she.

Got my first hate reply today. Twas an interesting experience. Who knew liking a character cause you related to them was akin to be a stan of capital punishment.

Yes, you read that correctly.

Not supporter. Not endorser. Not anything that makes any logical fucking sense.

But stan.

Whoever said real life was stranger than fiction rly meant that shit, huh?!

#Jace says #Anyway #Just to be clear #I am a Black gay {sometimes} man #Not to say that marginalized people can't vote against their own interests #I can guarantee you that an acute 95% of the votes Trump got last Nov were from poor people #But as a marginalized people who is decently educated on Negro Tingz I can assure you that I am not a eupporter of state sanctioned murder #I don't even think the state should have the right to police us cause they have demonstrated they cannnot do so without abusing that right #And anyway #Liking the guy who is a clear analogue for anarchism in some regards would be a weird way to show that #Even at his most out of character he has never stood for state sanctioned violence #He's stood for violence #A whole lotta violence #As one does when they are trying to be a mob boss #But that is not the same as being for state sanctioned violence #I need y'all to pick up a book #Expeditiously #If I was for state sanctioned violence I'd be a Bruce Wayne dick rider #And that's all fax no printer #...do the kids even still say that?! Idk!! I'm old!!

Never did Rick Riordan use Negro Spiritual lyrics as the title chapter for BLITZ'S chapter??? This blind sighted me so bad. This is actually kinda hilarious.
