Please fucking lie to your employer. Like they don’t need to know your mental health issues or what drugs you do. Ffs

while protestors are out on the streets asking justice for breonna taylor's murder, louisville law enforcement has senselessly murdered another black man, david mcatee. he was the owner of a bbq restaurant and he was literally at the protests feeding people when he was killed after law enforcement blindly shot into a crowd!! his family says he was shot while trying to protect his niece!! he was known to feed police officers for free!! he was a good, kind man! say his name!!

to whom it may concern

tear gas

background

tear gas is not a gas, it’s a kind of powder that clings to ur skin and clothing. it affects ur eyes and ur respiratory system. tear gas cans have different levels of toxicity, and the ones used against civilians are the lowest, but u should never trust a cop with ur safety

countries might have different policies about it, but common (rarely followed) protocols include: 

tear gas canister must be shot at the air, not directly at civilians

police must announce they will gas the place before shooting a can

lethality

people with respiratory problems should be thoroughly careful as death may ocur in a matter of hours exposed to it

others with no problems might experience fainting

have in mind the long lasting effects of this chemical weapon have not been registered yet

protection

thick face mask (the type made from a paper-like material) for a short period of exposure or low toxicity

proper gas masks with mixed filter against organic vapours and acid gases + particles

goggles (like ski masks or to go swimming)

if the gas mask doesn’t cover your entire face/doesn’t have a proper grip, u need to wear a bandana or a piece of clothing under it

do NOT use vinegar

do NOT wear makeup, creams or sunscreen as it worsens the effect on ur eyes

treatment & prevention

cheap: mixture of 90% water + 10% baking soda, apply on the nose, rinse ur mouth with it, pour it on the eyes (closed) and wait a little while before blinking repeatedly

 effective & cheap: boil a pot of water with laurel leaves (the kind u use to cook) until water turns brown. apply on nose, rinse mouth, pour on closed eyes and blink repeatedly. more effective as preventive measure (soak a piece of clothing and hold it against ur mouth/nose or tie it around ur head)

other: maalox antiacid

u can bite on a lemon for the effects to go away, but it would only last once ur away from the gas

do NOT run or get agitated, walk fast and watch where ur going. be calm, be mindful of others suffering the effects of the gas around u. help each other. contain each other

sneeze, cough, spit and blink as much as necessary until u’ve recovered

aftercare

tear gas clings to ur skin and ur clothes, so try to get the least amount of skin exposed. do NOT touch ur face (eyes, mouth, nose) with ur hands or ur clothes after u’ve been exposed, as the particles of the chemical will once again hurt u

u can wash ur clothes with baking soda, but the chemical might still remain (so dont take that forever 21 dress to a protest)

do NOT shower with hot water, as it re-activates the chemical. u dont have to use ice cold water but regulate the temperature carefully

neutralization

baking soda + water mixture in a big (6lt) reusable water bottle (some people add shampoo). u must wear heavy face protection and wielding gloves to manipulate the tear gas canister, grabbing it quickly from the floor and then cover the bottle as fast as u can once u put the can inside. it takes a few minutes to put off.

important: keep the canister, dont throw it away. when u’ve gotten to safety take a picture of the labels and information on the can, as it details the toxicity and precautions. make sure to check the protocols in ur country and report any misconduct.

not recommended: if u do not have the proper equipment to handle a tear gas canister, throw or kick the can against the police who shot it. watch them suffer. absolutely not recommended i do not support this u should never :-)

pepper spray

background

pepper spray isnt a gas either, the particles get under ur skin and stay there for a very long period of time. it obstructs ur respiratory system and blinds u for hours. if u see a cop walking around with a long canister in their hand, do please please get away and warn others.

lethality

death has been registered on asthmatic people

no long lasting effects as far as i know

protection

there’s nothing that can really prevent the effects of a pepper spray attack. it will cling to whatever u have on though, so the more covered u are the less particles will reach ur skin.

milk: magnesium milk is more recommended (u can buy it in a drugstore) but regular milk might work as well. it can lower the effects of pepper spray but it wont stop it. it relieves the effects after u’ve been attacked, but depending on how exposed u were. it leaves white stains on the skin and clothes.

aftercare

tear gas will worsen the effects, so if ur attacked with pepper spray u must get away immediately

if u are hit directly, in close proximity, u need to be taken to a hospital asap

it will burn ur skin and ur throat, u will feel hell on ur skin, but do not cry. remain calm. u need to know this will be over in a few hours and u will have no long lasting effects

the hospital may release u once u’ve recovered sight, but ur skin (especially ur hands, as u use and move them the most) will still hurt from time to time. sink the affected areas in a mixture of water and dish soap repeatedly and fast for 10-15 seconds

do NOT put any creams or lotions on

throw away the clothes and belongings contaminated with it, but be careful and mindful of the animals and homeless people who search for food in the trash, they dont deserve to suffer the effects of this weapon just because u are lousy

pellet shots

lethality

u will not die of a pellet shot wound, but if it lands on ur eyes u will be permanently blinded as the eye injury is irreversible

at the hospital they might have to give u vaccines

sometimes doctors are unable to remove the bullets and, depending on what it’s made of, u might suffer the effects of contamination

have in mind they can land anywhere, even ur face, and the removal is painful and excruciating

if ur shot in a non threatening part of ur body it will hurt like hELL, but u can still walk around just fine

protection

wearing jeans or windbreaker fabric will lower the speed of the shot, though it will still injure ur skin

anything from tin pieces to wood will stop the bullets. u can make a shield out of stop signs or cable satellites antennas

if u have a shield with u, it is ur responsability to stand in the front and protects other

for the eyes: safety glasses/goggles with ANSI z87.1 or z87+ standard are the easiest and cheapest to get, but military standard MIL-PRF-31013 is more effective. be sure to check the item actually qualifies legally for the standard

extra

water tank: throwing rocks at it only works if the door is open and u can aim at the cops inside. be careful since they might mix water with other chemicals (like caustic soda, which produces burns in the skin and vomit) and are more likely to use disposed water. depending on the type of tank it might actually hit u so hard u fly out of ur shoes, so be careful

laser pointer: u can use them to block cops’ vision, it will save lives

arrest: if u are being arrested and u are alone, or all the people u are with are being taken with u, yell ur full name so the people watching (probably recording) can have proof that u have been detained and ur family and friends can find out

recordings: dont post ur recordings on social media, as it can lead to the arrest of the people in it (or at least blur/cover their faces). it is important to have footage of the events to help the victims injured or abused by cops though

I JUST FUCKING DIED!!!! STILL CATCHING UP WITH GREYS ANATOMY BUT IM STILL FUCKING CRYING MY EYES OUT, HELP!!!!

Pietro Maximoff One Shot

Summary: You and Pietro pretend to go on a date as part of a mission. 

Your name: submit What is this? // <![CDATA[ document.getElementById("submit").addEventListener('click', myHandler); function myHandler() { var v = document.body.innerHTML; var input = document.getElementById("inputTxt").value; v = v.replace(/\by\/n\b|\(y\/n\)/ig, input); document.body.innerHTML = v; } // ]]>

“You’re wearing a dress.”

Your attention was suddenly caught by the familiar Sokovian voice, turning around on your heel to where Pietro Maximoff stood in quite a spiffy suit, his hair slicked back and his eyes gazing over your body. 

“Did you expect me to come in sweat pants and an old t-shirt?” you asked, raising an eyebrow at him and he licked his bottom lip in a nervous manner but a small smile did come to his face. 

“I wouldn’t have been surprised,” he strode over to you, offering his hand which you reluctantly took as you were fully aware that your hand was clammy from how nervous you’d been while waiting, “did you make the reservation?” 

Your mouth fell open, “I thought you were going to do that!” 

Pietro gave a small laugh, guiding you to the waiter at the front of the restaurant. 

“Ah, reservation for Vladimir,” he said and the waiter nodded, looking through the reservations as you elbowed Pietro in the ribs. 

“Right this way, sir. Ma’am,” the waiter gave you a small smile before leading the two of you inside, the quaint restaurant filled with customers but to your surprise, the waiter took you past all of them to a backroom that was nearly empty except for two other tables - one had a couple at the table and the other one the furthest away from the door as possible with your targets seated at it. 

“Are you paying with cash or card?”

Pietro handed a card to the man, “card.” 

Soon, the waiter walked back to the front room and you and Pietro were left alone. You had a better view of your targets, Pietro’s back unfortunately turned to them due to the seating arrangement but you knew that it was especially hard to get seats in the back room of the restaurant you were at - only the richest of the rich could get seats here. 

“You used Tony’s card, didn’t you?” you asked Pietro who gave a sheepish smile. 

“Of course I did,” he smiled thankfully at the waiter who returned the card back, “we are the ones putting our lives on the line… we deserve a good time.”

“How do you suppose we have a good time when we’re supposed to be trying to figure out whether or not to start a raid on this place?”

He reached out, taking your hand from across the table and giving it a small, almost comforting squeeze.

“I’m sure we’ll figure something out,”

At first, you were taken aback by the gesture but as your eyes flickered over to the men you were meant to be targeting, you saw one of them watching you suspiciously.

“Do you have eyes in the back of your head or something?” you asked him and he gave a small laugh.

“I’m full of surprises,” he then took his hand away from yours, picking up when of the menus as your had stayed where it was, a slight tingly feeling occurring, “we’re meant to be in love, remember?”

You and Pietro ended up having quite a lovely night, both of you almost forgetting that you were on a mission and that you couldn’t just take Tony’s money whenever you like. However, halfway through dinner was when Clint came through your earpiece, asking you if the two of you were done flirting and ready to get to work.

So now, you were hiding behind a flipped table, reloading a gun as you looked around for Pietro.

“He’s outside,” Natasha yelled to you and you gave a small thankful nod, sprinting out of the scene (not before shooting a few bullets on the way out) and outside to where agents had surrounded the place.

“Have you been hurt?” one of the agents asked as you stepped over the crime tape, hearing loud gunshots from inside.

“No, they’re nearly done in there though,” and plus you’d get in Natasha’s way, you thought.

You found Pietro sitting just outside an ambulance, a medic just finished patching up one of his wounds and he gave you his familiar sheepish smile, indicating to you that he was just fine.

“Good first date,” you joked, taking a seat beside him and he gave a small laugh.

“Yes, I even took a bullet for you,”

“It’s true love,” you looked at his side for a moment, “did you actually take a bullet for me?”

“Did you not see me?”

“You do kinda run really fast,”

He shrugged, “it was nothing. It didn’t hit anything major and I’m allowed to go home.”

“You really didn’t need to do that.”

Pietro’s expression turned suddenly serious, “yes, I did.”

You weren’t given much time to question him before Clint was sitting beside the two of you, attending to his own wounds and talking to both of you.

“You two actually had me questioning if you’d been dating behind our backs,” he laughed, frowning at the blood stain on his shirt and muttering about how it was going to be difficult to get out. “You two haven’t been dating in secret, have you?”

“No, no!” you and Pietro said in unison, blushing furiously.

“All just an act,” you said nervously, “that’s our job, right?”

Clint laughed, sounding a bit relieved, “yeah, yeah, just a bit paranoid. I’d just rather not walk in on the two of you making out.”

“You never have to worry about that. Trust me.”

Lying on your couch lazily, you flicked through various TV channels, knowing that you shouldn’t expect anything amazing to be on at this time of night. Getting home from missions often left you with a lot of adrenaline, especially at this time of night, meant that despite being physically exhausted, your body didn’t want to sleep so you were stuck watching bad television. Pulling your blankets around you, you began to think back to the night’s events. You knew that you were only meant to be pretending to be in love with Pietro but you couldn’t help but begin to think that maybe you actually were. You liked being able to hold his hand, say cute things to him and have him being affectionate towards you but even he agreed that you two being together was something no one ever had to worry about. This made you bury your head in one of the couch pillow’s – why were you getting so caught up in this?

Halfway through a very early episode of Law and Order: SVU, your phone began to buzz on the table and you lazily reached over to pick it up. If it was Steve or Natasha telling you that you had another mission tomorrow night, you were going to be angry.

“Hello?”

“(Y/N),” it was Pietro who said your name very calmly from the other end of the phone, “how are you?”

“I’m fine – uh, how are you? Is everything okay?”

“I can’t sleep. Did I wake you?”

“No, I can’t sleep either. You sound strange though… are you okay?” you heard Pietro suck in a breath before responding.

“You said to Clint that tonight was all just an act and it was just part of our job… did you… did you mean that?”

You paused for a moment.

“No.”

“Okay… I usually like to kiss a girl after a first date.”

You smiled a little as Pietro’s usual confident self began to appear.

“Then you can kiss me when you see me next.”

“Oh lovely. Can you open your door then?”

Your eyebrows furrowed as you got off the couch, pulling your blanket with you and still holding the phone to your ear although neither of you spoke. You put your phone down momentarily, slowly unlocking your door and opening it to see Pietro standing there with his phone held to his ear, the two of you staring at one another.

“Hi,” he said and you could already feel your cheeks burning up.

“Hi,”

Pietro stepped forward towards you, ending the phone call and putting his phone into his pocket.

“Just a kiss,” he murmured, his hand that had left yours all tingly raising to your cheek and your arms fell limp as he pressed his lips against yours, your blanket falling around your feet. A loud fight scene broke out in Law & Order but the two of you were too caught up to pay attention to the noise, your lips moving together as you shared a sweet kiss. As Pietro pulled away, a small smile was on his face and he let out the quietest of laughs.

“Clint won’t be impressed,” he murmured, rubbing his thumb across your cheek and you couldn’t help but laugh as well.

“We’ll just have to be really sneaky then.”

“I wouldn’t mind annoying him.”

The head of the firearms licensing department in Israhell quit -and apparently they're "handing out guns like candy." Last year there was 42 applicants for gun permits, and this year there are OVER 150,000... with no proper training or regulations... this is horrifying. [12/05/23].
