This is a PSA about "Cactuses and throwing them at people" or "Throwing people at cactuses" and how fucking stupid that is. Don’t do it.

Don’t fuck with cactuses!

When I was young I worked across the lobby from the lady running the souvenir shop. I would go in and browse the merchandise, and we would chat a little.

I met her husband. I met her adult children.

She was a nice lady and I was always glad to see her.

I saw her one day unloading the tall rolling rack they used to move the new plants to the plant sale shelves. I even stopped by to see that she was moving these super cute little cactuses in small terracotta pots. I told her to be careful she didn’t poke herself. She laughed and showed her hand where I didn’t see anything and said that she’d already poked herself with the first one.

We laughed and I told her to make sure she washed her hands with soap.

It was the start of Memorial Day weekend. The shop was going to be closed until Tuesday.

She wasn’t there on Tuesday. Wasn’t there Wednesday. And when I saw her on Thursday her hand was heavily bandaged, likely to keep the wound clean.

She’d washed her hand, but it wasn’t enough. The cactus spine went deep into her skin. And the spine tip was dirty with–dust, dirty water residue, previous victims–whatever.

Her finger started to swell on Friday night. Just a bit of puffiness around the puncture point. Saturday evening it started to get big. Sunday it was turning colors. Monday was Memorial Day.

She could have gotten her wound tended at the local emergency clinic but it was a holiday weekend. Most everything was closed starting on Friday… including the local clinic.

The hospital was 82 miles away. They had family events planned for the whole weekend, including a trip to the beach. She didn’t want to ruin everybody’s fun.

By the time I saw her, they’d had to cut a chunk out of her finger to stop the raging staph infection. If it had been allowed to go another day, she would have lost her entire finger. Maybe her life.

So to see people "Haha, just stand there while I do this awful thing to you!"-throwing cactuses at their "friends"…

It sicks me right out.

You don’t need enemies when you have shitty friends like that.

If they’re acting out of malice, you don’t need them in your life. They are an enemy that has yet to show their true face. A snake snuggling close to you, waiting to laugh at your misfortunes while leading you into more.

If they’re acting out of ignorance you’re still just as damaged, but they can be taught better. They won’t do something to knowingly hurt you, so all you have to do is mention the dangers of cactuses and they won’t stab you with one. They want to have fun, not really hurt you. Sometimes you just happen to get hurt around them when you let their ignorant ideas lead the group.

There are some people that you love to love. They are funny and outgoing and they seem to bring a brightness to the room.

Sometimes they grow out of their charm, and that’s a natural process. Sometimes the charm wears thin, and you find out they weren’t that great in the first place. Sometimes they use charm to replace common sense and they become a danger to themselves and others.

There are some people that you drift apart from as you realize that your life and health are important to you.

People that fuck around with cactuses?

They are a danger to themselves and others.

Plus they’re hurting the cactuses and that’s not right.

I wrote a big long thread on Twitter. I copypasta’d it together for a single read. Sorry it’s so rough.

Hypocrites

I don’t like that people are tracking abortions… But my dislike for hypocritic "politicians" makes me narrow my eyes in displeasure at Lauren B.

Abortion is a medical procedure that should be available to anyone that wants one. Whatever the reason.

"How can you be so blase about the MURDER of babies???"– Well, because it’s not a baby. It’s a mass of cells that might someday become a baby if a survivable birth takes place, but otherwise it’s a parasitic lifeform attached to someone’s body. Like a cancer. Or a botfly.

As such, it’s the decision of the host lifeform whether it wants to continue to act as an incubator. ESPECIALLY as pregnancy is a leading cause of death and permanent disability. ESPECIALLY as human infants are expensive to care for and there’s very little support offered.

And to those that invoked "My body, my choice!" as an excuse to not wear a mask during a pandemic…

The limits of bodily autonomy don’t include spreading an easily communicable deadly virus to strangers on the street.

The reason it’s so easy to oppress pregnant people is because the pregnancy only effects the body hosting it.

The person inside can be screaming in despair–for whatever reason–and people on the outside can crowd in to surround and pressure them to "wait and see," KNOWING there’s a time limit.

A time limit THEY created!

The very idea that they want to force pregnant minors seeking abortions to provide parental/guardian approval…

• They want to marry children.
• They want parents/guardians to be able to FORCE children to marry adults.
• They want to impregnate children legally.

Eugenics.

It’s a fearful time.

Bodily autonomy should be an unalienable RIGHT.

Nobody should be able to stop you from seeking medical care*.

• Keep your quackery to non-essential stuff, bruhs.

tea tree oil to
– deter fleas = okay?
– kill lice infestation = uh
– prevent measles = No

Seriously….

If they want to "stop the killing of the unborn!" they’d

• make condoms free and available to everyone everywhere.
• mandate clear and concise sex-ed courses. No shame messaging or psy-op’ing. "Parts A, B, C, D, E" "Mouth, anus, ear… It’s still sex. Consent".

As an adult in a minor’s life… You are taking on a RESPONSIBILITY to not prey upon them.

"But I am the shepherd and these are my sexy SEXY lambs!"–My dude: The shepherds don’t have sex with the sheep.

That is simply an excuse you tell yourself to be a sicko pervert IRL.

It doesn’t matter what fakenoise you fap to…

• real porn
• fake porn (I see the fuzzy blanket. I hear the jingling bells. The parts are there, but…)
• erotic or explicit fiction
• guys beating hell out of each other

because it’s fantasy. It’s not real. It’s FICTION.

But when you bring your fantasy into your real life, you need to be aware of certain things…

• consent matters
• consent matters (a minor CANNOT give consent)
• safety matters (condoms, body wash, clean sheets)
• safety matters (that won’t fit there)
• sanity matters (⬆️)

Sounding may sound fun, bruh, but if you stick THAT into THERE… you’re gonna have a bad time.

And if you stick your THERE onto that underage WHO… you SHOULD have a bad time.

Consent matters. A minor cannot give consent.

Guardians don’t/shouldn’t control consent rights.

It grosses me right out that there are ADULTS out there scheming to force children to marry pedophiles.

And like, part of the religious education they feed their children is that a wife’s duty is to have sex and babies with her* husband.

• I thought they but used her

To get their gross hands on young flesh… pedophiles are subverting the entire government.

That’s how I see it.

Pedophiles and pedophile apologists meeting up in a room somewhere to shake hands and agree to be awful. "For the sake of the unborn!"

"I’m not a pedophile apologist!!!"

Dude, if you REALLY cared about the torments of "the unborn," you would be all about sex-ed in schools and harsher punishments* for sexual assault.

if you’re poor = harsher punishments

if you’re rich = someone says "But his future!"

There wouldn’t be a pile of rape kits ROTTING in evidence rooms until the statute of limitations on the cases expire.

Children would be able to verbalize all the parts of their bodies so they can clearly explain when they’re sexually abused.

There would be medical for all.

If you REALLY cared about the unborn

• you’d create a world that would welcome a birth. The choice to be a parent is an important and personal one. Unborn should not mean unwanted and/or unaffordable.

• you’d support secular welfare programs.

And if you ONLY care about the unborn… You need to take a close and lasting look at yourself, because you’re being a giant steaming people poo.

Babies NEED a lot. They are very expensive in the modern world:
* food ($$-$$$$$)
* clothes ($-$$)
* childcare ($$$$-$$$$$$)

A "regular" normal delivery is UNAFFORDABLE to a large percentage of people in the United States today.

Unforeseen–or even foreseen–complications can result in a million dollar baby.

Not everyone is charming enough to crowdfund their baby’s birth.

If you REALLY cared about the unborn…

You would care about the people already alive.

You would fund secular welfare programs and public libraries.

You would support birth control being provided free to the public with no usage tracking or schemy sabotage-baby pinholes.

If your focus and your passion is REALLY about the unborn… and NOT about forcing your religious views down peoples’ throats so you can say you completed your "mission in life" while not realizing you’ve fallen to the sin of pride…

You would vote democrat in elections.

I know. Hiss. Boo. "Why’d you bring politics into it? I hate politics!"

Dude, you are aware that a giant psy-op took place to make "politics" look stupid/unimportant/a waste of time/"not for me", right?

The "artistes" may claim sarcasm, but it was/is still propaganda.

The normalization of violence has resulted in acts of IRL violence.

The normalization of racism, and the follow-up knee-jerk need to defend "the way I was raised!" has resulted in a lot of IRL racism. And violence. Lots of violence.

The purposeful teaching of ignorance has resulted in a society that cant’s see cause and effect events and abhors "politics."

To the point that they vote against their own self-interest.

"My Pa voted Red Hat my whole life…" Dude, you’re 20. Wise up. Get your MMRV vaccine.

"I don’t like womens." Okay. And?

For reals: If you vote against your own self-interests and the good of the people at large because you don’t like women, gay people, or people of certain ethnicities…

You are being a fool.

A politician can have the looks of Chet Donnelly during his transformation. I don’t care.

Ugly lies. Beautiful lies. It’s still lies you’re telling yourself if you don’t look at the deeper issues…

• Does this politician represent my interests?
• Does this politician represent the good of society at large?
• Will this politician EMBARRASS me if I choose them?

If I vote for this politician will I still be able to enjoy the things I enjoy:

• Watching movies.
• Enjoying unpolluted oceans.
• Having free drinkable water that tastes like drinkable water.
• Breathing air.
• Walking safely anywhere I want to go.
• Seeing happy people.

If you "really hate politics" and "don’t want to have anything more to do with them"…

then you should vote democrat in this day and age.

Your good politician should not just keep the status quo, but should be focused on bettering things for the entire United States.

There are always rewards and incentivization that can be negotiated and arranged, but only if everyone in the room isn’t FIGHTING each other over other issues.

Some dude wants to ogle the genitals of children. Lobbies for this and that. Now student athletes can be examined.

We are currently dealing with a targeted assault on the democracy of our country.

They have all our metadata to feed into their AIs to KNOW exactly what buttons to push and how hard.

They have grossly underestimated the result they’ve achieved.

But the deeds are done.

It’s now up to us to pick up the pieces.

To vote for candidates that actually care about the people… and not the interests of oil companies and warmongers.

We need people strong enough to stand against our enemies, whether physical or online, who ALSO want to keep peace.

Candidates that care about the smallest neighbors as much as about the richest ones.

Candidates that want to repair infrastructure (roads, bridges, emergency supplies) as well as create sustainable and environmentally beneficial structures and industries.

If you DON’T care about politics then

• don’t complain about search engine results sucking so bad.
• don’t complain that your phone bill is high and all you ever get is spam callers.
• don’t complain that all you ever hear about is abortions and queer rights on TV.

Voting for the right candidate for a job means that they do their job and they don’t constantly rock the boat so they can ask for more money.

Voting for the right candidate means not having to worry that they’re going to allow a poison factory to be built next to houses.

Voting for the right candidates in elections would mean

• everyone would receive free medical care.
• profiteers wouldn’t be able to buy up all the affordable housing.
• minors wouldn’t be able to marry.
• taxing the rich.

And you could just watch TV and live your life.
