Rights have never been granted by authority. They have always been asserted against authority, and won from it.

While I'm sharing out tips, here's a papper spray relief solution you can make at home!
I've personally witnessed the efficacy of this solution against OC (pepper) spray. The person sprayed their arm purposely with it, let it sit, and then treated the affected area with solution. Relief was almost immediate.
Here's a link where more information can be found:

Tip for those living in areas prone to power loss.
Keep big jugs of water in your freezer, if you have freezer space. if/when power goes out, use the fridge/freezer as little as possible, and transfer frozen water jugs to the fridge. This should help keep the temperature low enough to delay spoilage of food.

White people shut the fuck up about POC experience challenge. JUST FUCKING SHUT UP!
i made the day of a very shabby man on the bus by being the only person to actually talk to him instead of ignoring him. a long time ago, he played viola; he knew a lot about music theory and classical music, and clearly deeply cared about it. we talked for the entire ride. it was the strangest and most unexpected thing i've done recently. i was nowhere near comfortable talking to a random person – it's far outside my typical comfort zone – but he needed to talk, and i was glad to listen.
this one is from him. may he find peace somewhere.

Anarchist. Cat. Anarkat. White Cis Male. Don't worry, I'll die eventually. Polyamorous & pansexual. Sometimes I say dumb stuff. When that happens, tell me. I'll figure it out.
Location? Idunno. The walls are grey and plain, and it's difficult to get to. Could be a bunker. Or a suburb. Hard to tell.
I drive. A lot. Many attempts have been made on my life by whatever spirit is behind bad drivers, but I'm still around.
