I Remember Adults Telling Me, As A Kid, To Listen To Doctors And Get My Flu Vaccine And Any Shots I Could

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, to listen to doctors and get my flu vaccine and any shots i could because they remembered Before.

then they started fighting Covid precautions.

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, that the ozone was disappearing and the earth was dying and we needed to recycle and save the planet.

now my parents think climate change is a myth.

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, that racism was a plague, that we had to love and accept everyone, that we should never judge before walking a mile in their shoes.

then they told me that protesting for my Black siblings was wrong.

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, that we needed to give to the poor. working at soup kitchens. making quilts. collecting food and money and supplies. building houses. because it was the christian and just plain right thing to do.

now they look at me, on food stamps with their grandchildren, and lament the "welfare state".

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, that it was easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven and that any rich man, especially an immoral one, should never run our country.

you can guess who they voted for.

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, so very much.

when did they forget?

Anybody else got that Evergiven sized writers block

I believe firmly that Dabi would definitely bitch about doing a job and just annoy Tomura so much about how he forces him to do a job. And complains about doing the job, using every fiber of his burnt body to make sure everyone knows how annoyed he is and how much he doesn't want to do it. And then he executes the job perfectly. And after that goes on with a rant of how good he was and annoying Tomura more with how much of a genius he is for doing something a certain way. And when Tomura asked why he was bitching about it in the beginning he just gives a half assed answer. And all the annoy his dear boss and to be as dramatic as humanly possible.
