Feels weird coming back on here for the first time in a while.
          
          I had to take a break for myself really because medication sucks and I haven't felt like myself in weeks. And I get to start some new stuff at some point.
          
          I also wanted to let the Black Lives Matter movement have its own spotlight, and I want to say that Breonna Taylor's killers still haven't been arrested or charged. This isn't some dumb trend. People are still dying. People are still protesting for change. I've even seen some people delete their black squares (the entire idea was pointless in the first place, more people posted a square than signing the original fecking petitions).
          
          I did go back to work yesterday and I feel great about getting into a normal routine, and I'll get to see some of my favourite coworkers in a week (shh, don't tell the others). My best friend went back to his hometown and I won't see him for a while longer than the 4 months it's already been, which really sucks for me.
          
          Am I in a great place that I'll start posting again? No, I'm not ready for that just yet. Honestly, at the moment, I'm trying to be comfortable with my identity (if that makes sense?) where I'm the writer you know here and also the broken af person no one really sees fully. Along with the rest of it.
          
          I want y'all to keep signing petitions and pushing for changes that matter. I'll probably get back into writing at some point, and I'll definitely be editing or thinking of new ideas. I keep drawing anime a lot and now I have half a plot and a character for whatever I want to do with it.
          
          Keep an eye on here for whatever I'll say next I guess?
          
          See y'all whenever :)

I've just seen videos of Donald Trump mocking the last words of George Floyd.
          
          America, this is YOUR president.
          
          The president that some of you voted to have. Or that family members voted for.
          
          Sign the petitions. Donate if you can. Share the links that will help people. Go to the protests if you can. Protect yourselves. If you're white, the police are less likely to harm you (or so I've heard). Stand in the way of police brutality. Research the situation as well.
          
          Talk to your family members. Make sure they're fully aware of the situation. Do not let them be racist. Do not let them be silent. And if you're college kids and (like me) have several emails, you better use them all to sign the petitions. I have 4 different emails, and I'm using all of them.
          
          Let this suffering for black people end. Let racism end.
          
          Do not let them win.

Black lives matter. Now more than ever.
          
          3rd-degree manslaughter is not enough. One cop arrested is not enough.
          
          Killing innocent protestors is not okay.
          
          Killing innocent black people is never okay.
          
          A force of police officers standing outside, defending the murderer's home IS. NOT. OKAY.
          
          Justice needs to be done.
          
          And Donald Trump needs to go.
          
          What if Trump responds to this murder as he did with the LA mass shooting last year?
          
          "We're not gonna talk about that today."
          
          "We don't have a problem with guns."
          
          As a British person, I beg those able to vote in America to vote Trump out. He does not deserve to be President when he has let so many people die and refused to do anything about it.
          
          If you have anything to say about my opinion and credibility- I've spent 5 years studying American history in the 1900s onwards. I've studied the movements. I've studied the protests. I've studied the work of the Presidents during that time.
          
          Trump needs to go. Black Lives Matter, more so now than ever.
          
          And if you have a problem with these murders, then YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM.
          
          If you support Trump or racism, then don't follow me. Don't associate with me. Don't read anything I write. Simple as.
          
          As said by Alex Gaskarth of All Time Low- "President Pissbaby gotta go."
          
          Many of them are fighting to get this huge problem fixed permanently. Once and for all.
          
          Will you fight too?
