This is very important if you’re ever in a situation similar this pretend that you’re dead don’t scream and @#!*%

my dad told us this if someone shoots up our school

SUPER IMPORTANT

BEST TIP

PLEASE REMEMBER THIS

not even a joke we learned this in Police Explorers and put it on your clothing as well but go quickly because you don’t know where the person is.

This is what school children in America are taught.
That is so wrong on so many fucking levels and there are still people who believe gun control in any form is a bad thing.

let me reiterate
SCHOOL CHILDREN IN A SUPPOSEDLY FIRST WORLD COUNTRY ARE TAUGHT THE SAME THINGS AS PEOPLE IN ACTIVE WAR ZONES BECAUSE THE THREAT OF BEING KILLED IN A SHOOTING IS SO HIGH.

the bit in caps here is making me rethink my stance on gun control

shit

I’m reblogging this because as my follower count goes up, the odds of this saving a life do too.

My elementary school had drills telling us what to do in such an emergency. This is exactly what they told us. AND NOW FOR A FACT: IN CALIFORNIA YOU DO NOT HAVE TO REGISTER A SHOTGUN!

I live in America, and I was only taught to hide and be quiet. I had to learn this on Tumblr. If one more person says that technology is ruining children, they best shut the hell up because this could be saving lives

^^^^^

You know what I love about this post?

People are sharing about its importance WITHOUT TRYING TO GUILT PEOPLE INTO REBLOGGING.

Great job, everybody!

If you would report an undocumented immigrant to ICE you would have reported me to the Nazis and I don’t fucking trust you

A note:

I live in a state where you “have to” report anyone you suspect of being undocumented (that wonderful hellhole of Arizona). Now in practice this law has fallen far short, thank goodness. But if you live in such a place and they start enforcing it, here is how you get around it:

Assume everyone who doesn’t speak English is visiting.

Never ask about their job, because if they tell you they work here then you know they’re not visiting. You see them a lot for several weeks or months? Hm. Someone in the family must be ill. That’s terribly tough. They always dress in old, ratty laborers’ clothes? I feel you, my dude, I can’t afford new clothes either, and my dad has the fashion sense of an aardvark, so sometimes it’s not even about “affording” them. They say they’ve been here for years? You must have misunderstood. Spanish isn’t your first language, after all. First and last name? It never came up, or you don’t recall–you meet a lot of people.

And then, if you’re asked: no, you haven’t seen anyone residing illegally in the United States. Just people visiting.

Very good very important addition

Essentially, this is the civil society version of a work-to-rule strike.

Don’t do more than is expressly asked of you, and do what you are asked with such an intense attention to protocol that not asking you at all becomes more effective than even bothering.

In this case:

“Have you seen an illegal immigrant?”

“Could you describe an illegal immigrant, officer?”

*officer describes a person who is in the country without appropriate paperwork, or who has crossed the border illegally*

“No, sir, I haven’t seen any illegal immigrant.”

And this is correct. You have NOT seen an illegal immigrant, because you have no way of knowing if Jose Fulano is here legally or not. And since you can’t see his paperwork (or lack thereof), and did not personally see him cross the border illegally, you are only answering precisely the question asked.

My face is having uncontrollable spasms. Great. It hurts really, really, really bad.

I think part of why I have trouble explaining pain to the doctor is when they ask about the pain scale I always think “Well, if someone threw me down a flight of stairs right now or punched me a few times, it would definitely hurt a lot more” so I end up saying a low number. I was reading an article that said that “10” is the most commonly reported number and that is baffling to me. When I woke up from surgery with an 8" incision in my body and I could hardly even speak, I was in the most horrific pain of my life but I said “6” because I thought “Well, if you hit me in the stomach, it would be worse.”

I searched and searched for the post this graphic was from, and the OP deactivated, but I kept the graphic, because my BFF does the same thing, uses her imagination to come up with the worst pain she can imagine and pegs her “10″ there, and so is like, well, I’m conscious, so this must be a 5, and then the doctors don’t take her seriously. (And she then does things like driving herself to the hospital while in the process of giving birth. Probably should have called an ambulance for that one!)

So I found this and sent it to her. Because this is what they want to know: how badly is this pain affecting you? Not on a scale of “nothing” to “how I’d imagine it’d feel if bears were eating my still-living guts while I was on fire”.

I hate reposting stuff, but I’ll never find that post again and OP is deactivated, so, here’s a repost. I can delete this later, i just wanted to get it to you and I can’t embed images in a chat or an ask.

This is possibly why it took several weeks to diagnose my fractured spine.

Pain Scale transcription:

10 – I am in bed and I can’t move due to my pain. I need someone to take me to the emergency room because of my pain.

9 – My pain is all that I can think about. I can barely move or talk because of my pain.

8 – My pain is so severe that it is difficult to think of anything else. Talking and listening are difficult.

7 – I am in pain all the time. It keeps me from doing most activities.

6 – I think about my pain all of the time. I give up many activities because of my pain.

5 – I think about my pain most of the time. I cannot do some of the activities I need to do each day because of the pain.

4 – I am constantly aware of my pain but can continue most activities.

3 – My pain bothers me but I can ignore it most of the time.

2 – I have a low level of pain. I am aware of my pain only when I pay attention to it.

1 – My pain is hardly noticeable.

0 – I have no pain.

It’s also really important to get this kind of scale to people who have chronic pain, because chronic pain drastically lowers your perception of how “bad” any kind of pain actually is, and yet something like this pain scale is extremely user friendly.

For example, if someone asked me how much pain I’m in at any given time, I’d say hardly any, and yet I’m apparently at a chronic 2.5, and it only goes up from there depending on the day.

There’s also a similarly useful “Fatigue Scale”

I haven’t been below a 5 on this scale for 4 years

Here’s the fatigue scale

Very useful

Please reblog, this is so important.

I needed this

Is this foreal?

Yes it’s a real service. I do volunteer work for a rape crisis support service in my city and texting is one of the features we provide as well. But just to boost its credibility, I tried it myself:

reblog to save lives!

You can also text “Steve” to 741741 if you’re a young person of color. The website for more info is stevefund.org

My understanding is that it’s more multicultural and some folks feel more comfy with that in mind!

^^^^^THIS

get help guys, please. if you’re hurting, don’t let that hurt consume you. seek help.

I never knew this. It’s spectacular.

((I’ve texted these guys a few times, they’re really great.))

i’ve text them . about my tainted ass relationship & she really listened . she was great 🧡

To be clear, I only know of this as U.S. service.

Never Thought I’d be in This Situation But Here I am.

After crying my eyes out for the past hour, after realizing the situation I’m being put into, I’m literally forcing myself to write this. I’m struggling to ask for something I always thought I could avoid, and that’s needing help.

I’ve been living with my aunt and uncle for a couple years now, and I’m very grateful that they took me in after I graduated highschool, hell I’m also grateful to my othe uncle who let me sleep in his living room so I wouldn’t have to move to a different town with my mother. But my point is, my mother and her irresponsibility. She and my father are divorced, so my father has sent her child support for me and my sister. When I decided to continue school through college I needed the extended child support so I could afford going. Things recently have turn for the worse because my mother is having sticky fingers and not sending most of my money. My aunt and I for months now have been going to courts and lawyers to find a way to get the money sent differently, for now there’s nothing we can do unless my aunt signs off as my official guardian.

What my mother is doing to me is creating so much fucking stress for me by not sending me my child support. At this point I don’t have enough to go to school this year, or to even pay for my car that I need to get to work with. And Whatever is in my account gets sucked into my previous school loans. I’m currently training at my new job, and I won’t get more hours to earn me more money until that time is up, ~~another month or so.~~

So I’m opening emergency commissions. I want to at least earn up to half of the tuition for just one semester at my college before getting the rest on a loan, that being $2,000′s Because i only work little hours I’ll be able to completely focus and dedicate my time on these commissions. Here is my chart.
