Have you ever wanted to own a noodle horse dragon alien?? NOW IS YOUR CHANCE.

hey! dont just randomly adopt a greyhound, especially if theyre a rescue!! you need to do some research first. rescues are A LOT of work

greyhounds require DAILY exercise!! but they are sprinters, not endurance runners, they need a safe enclosed place to run around or extra long walks. however they can run into danger at great speeds unless in safe area

since greyhounds are sighthounds they will have a tendency to chase smaller animals (especially since these are former racers, they will be more inclined)

so PLEASE make sure you are suited to owning a greyhound before adopting one! they are lovely and very sweet animals and deserve to be happy in a perfect home!!

Reblogging this version since it contains further information that I should have included in my initial reblog. These dogs need homes but please make sure you do your research and don’t take on more than you can handle, both for the sake of yourself and the dog!

Daily reminder that “Missing Person” posts are a common and often effective method that abusers use to find their victims that have run away from them. Also used to find people in the witness protection program.  

If you see a “missing person” post with a number that is not just 911 on it, be very wary. And if you do see someone who is supposedly missing, call the police, NOT the number provided on the post. I trust the police as little as anyone but they’ll at least be able to tell you if that person is actually missing and it has less of a chance of giving information to a possible abuser. 

A couple of red flags I’ve noticed:

  • Abusers claiming their victims are mentally ill or schizophrenic, to explain why they might not want to come back
  • Abusers giving any excuse to explain why their victims may not come back really
  • Abusers telling you not to approach their victims if you see them, or limit your communication with them
  • Abusers telling you not to mention them to their victims at all
  • Abusers claiming that their victims aren’t safe with their family or friends
  • Abusers claiming their victims are being threatened away from them

(Feel free to add on)

Add-ons to the list of red flags from my mother, a psychologist who has worked with victims of domestic abuse:

  • Abusers claiming their victim has a history of self-harm that leaves bruises is always a red flag (except in the case of autistic children, but even then, call 911, not the abuser)
  • Abusers claiming their (POC) victim doesn’t understand English and so you shouldn’t try to communicate with them/trust anything they say is not uncommon for human traffickers
  • Abusers claiming their victim has a history of making things up for attention or to get their way, tacitly implying you shouldn’t listen to them when they express fear or disclose their abusive situation to you
  • Posters lacking a last name are inherently not to be trusted. The lack of a surname is there to keep you from looking the person up in other databases and finding out they’ve been listed as missing by their family/the police.
  • Posters that put any character smears – mental illness, drug use, etc. – out about the victim are trying to make you predisposed to not communicating with or trusting the victim so you won’t believe anything they say. Treat this as a flashing neon red flag and call the police.

My mother would also like to note that taking a picture of the poster or tearing it down and turning it in to police can be very useful to them when they’re trying to build cases against abusers so if that’s at all possible for you, by all means do it.

*my parents.

And my GREAT Grandma is still alive soooo……..

My GRANDMA

My FATHER went to a LEGALLY MANDATED segregated school until he was 8 and integration was then enforced. He was not legally allowed into a school or part of town with white people until he was almost ten

Many people forget black people couldn’t even vote until 1965. That’s not that long ago.

female characters are never allowed to be comic relief or absolute idiots without being sexualised or treated as weak and pathetic. we need more funny women who are stupid as fuck and EMBRACE that. ladies who dont have two braincells to rub together. some absolutely buffoonish girls. its 2018 cmon

Hey so yeah. This is why you shouldn’t vote third party in a competitive race. Oh, and Angela Green herself had actually dropped out of the race and endorsed Sinema, but people were so intent not to vote for one of the Evil Parties Who Are Exactly The Same that they voted for someone who wasn’t even running.
