anyway i am reasonably sure that as of the writing and publishing of needful things in 1991 stephen king had not been even passingly acquainted with garfield the cat because he describes a garfield poster in a speech therapy classroom that says “if a cool cat like me can talk all that trash then so can you!” and thats a handful of degrees funnier and more absurd than anything garfield has ever canonically said

Don’t let your white friends get you in trouble.

You better say that.

i want to elaborate on this.

don’t buy from white dealers and don’t sell to white people.

don’t underage drink with white people.

don’t do anything that could be viewed as illegal by cops with white people and this isn’t me trying to be anti-white this is me telling you to protect yourself from anti-black cops. they won’t hesitate to pin the entire crime on you even if your white friend did 90% of the crime.

most (if not all) white people don’t understand the same crimes they commit (getting into a bar with a fake ID, stealing cigars, playing with toy guns in walmart) we are given a lengthy imprisonment or executed on the spot for.

so don’t put yourself in a situation that could get you killed and a white person a slap on the wrist.

Sorry if this isn’t the right place but I felt like its important to add, this is the most real shit I have seen on my dash in a while. After I got my license I drove everywhere, constantly picked up my friends and really just drove like a maniac making dumb decisions left and right. Now one of my best friends is a WoC and I helped her get her license and I always told her ‘9mph over the speed limit and the ticket gets thrown out in court’ because that is what I’d been taught. One day she was driving and I mentioned that to her and she kept insisting that it was 5mph. It took me YEARS to realize PoC can’t afford that extra 4mph!!!!!!!!! White teenagers are the dumbest group on the planet, please don’t let them talk you into their dumb shit!

Conversely: White people, don’t get your black friends into trouble. What is just dicking around to you is a potential death sentence to them. If you are any kind of friend, you won’t put them in that kinds of harm’s way.

Important addition

So because i turn everything in my life into references, the two founders of my fake business for my web design class now look suspiciously like aziraphale and crowley. The top is for the about page and the bottom is for the website header

by the way it’s a family-oriented exorcism business and they make their living by getting nasty demons out of little kids and sticking them back in the pit (except not crowley because he is an ok guy who doesnt possess people and look he’s a fake priest now too)

My teacher is obsessed with the exorcist so he enjoys this. Little does he know.

Alan Turing used to chain his tea cup to the radiator to stop it being stolen. Photo of his actual cup from Bletchley Park’s twitter.

Petition for a Bletchley Park sitcom in which Turing chains
his tea mug to a more unlikely immoveable object with each episode.

Also I heard that a couple of years ago historians/landscapers
working on the property found the pond was full of sunken WWII-era mugs, so
presumably that’s what Turing was trying not to have happen to his.
