This is Jacob. In June 2016, he comforted those affected by the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando. Four months ago he flew to Las Vegas and helped the families of 58 people grieve. Today, he is in Parkland, Florida hugging all the students who lost their classmates yesterday. He’s worthy of a 16/10
For those of you who don’t know, I work at an anarchist co-op coffee shop.
Apparently, all the Chicano/Cholo boys in my neighborhood have caught on the the fact that I sneak food and stuff to all the little punk kids and homeless kids at the coffee shop.
There are three in particular who call me Mom.
Not Mami, not Ma, Mom.
The rest refer to me as “Miss”.
They’ve decided to always have one of the three of them there with me on my night shifts. (Especially after they witnessed the last bad shift where I had to kick a bunch of tweakers out. Said tweakers lit my fucking bulletin board on fire.)
Tonight, one of the boys actually charged up a crackhead who wouldn’t get out when I told him to leave.
About an hour later, I was emptying bus tubs when that same lovely boy walked in and wetted a wash rag. I asked what he was doing and he told me not to worry. So, I went about my business, doing dishes, bussing the main dining tables, etc.
I’d left a broom in the smoking room and a fresh trash bag in the bathroom for once I was done with the dishes.
When I walked out, everything was spotless and the trash had been replaced. He’d wiped all my tables, swept, mopped, and emptied all the ash trays.
He’d also picked the lock on the bathroom so his friend could take out the trash for me. (Which I’m not sure whether I should scold him for. Haha)
They snuck around and did my closing shift duties to thank me for keeping them warm and fed.
hey! since claires filed for bankruptcy and toys r us is closing all it’s stores in the US, make sure to check their online store and your local stores regularly the next few months! there’s going to be blowout sales and probably extreme discounts up to 90%. so any nostalgia / kidcore fans, keep your eyes peeled cause otherwise their stuff will just get thrown out most likely!
same goes for anyone with kids, who babysits, etc.— especially since the “toys r us” closings include all “babies r us” stores as well.
If you don’t have any kids, it can be a nice thing to buy toys and baby items anyways, and look into donating them to homeless/women’s shelters, hospitals, or other charities.
“If he skates a clean short and a clean long, I might think he might be unbeatable,” Fernández said of Hanyu.
A few moments later, Hanyu arrived in the interview area, hugged Fernández, removed the shiny new gold medal from his own neck and placed it around the Spaniard’s.
Imagine if you were a Christian medieval person from a small village and you had a feud with your neighbour… how annoying would it be to see them in church every Sunday? Not only are you obliged to be in the same space with them every week but you’d have to watch them receive the sacrament and have their sins forgiven even though you know damn well they don’t deserve it… and on top of that you get the priest preaching “love thy neighbour” from the pulpit, I think the fuck not, I’ll not love an unneighbourly misbegotten churl such as he, preach though thou might, father
I think I just got possessed by the ghost of a man who’s still really upset about his neighbour’s pigs eating his cabbages
