if the average masto user were alive in the 1960s they would call the black panther party tankies and counter protest their stuff. if they were in California they would work with the state and the nra to take away their guns. the only reason they don't do this now is because they're self aware of how racist they'd get called.

I'm just standing there in the kitchen with those two fuckups, wasting my teen years & trying to mediate in case it gets violent, and then all of a sudden half of this old lady's body doesn't work anymore.
I had to call the ambulance, because the other adult in the room was too fucking useless to do so.
embarrassed myself yesterday when i told a friend i know one song from cats, which turned out to be 'everybody wants to be a cat' from the aristocats
