"The ones that bear the brunt of any crisis are the poor and the marginalized. The weeks of militarization seem to have created a disgusting free-for-all vacuum for police to release pent-up animosity toward marginalized groups in Chile, not just the LGBTQ+ community but also women, immigrants, and other individuals from lower class populaces. The cases of discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, many of which have come to light during these revolutionary and chaotic days in Chile, also pose the question of how many times LGBTQ+ individuals face homophobic and discriminatory reactions from state agents on a daily basis."

* Today the difficulty on literally everything is turned up to eleven again. I had to strip the bed myself and do laundry again. I keep stepping in mystery substances and having to clean surprise messes. The cats are in the way. whatever I'm doing? Underfoot, making traffic jams, etc. Livia won;t eat her met. I managed to break my toe again (hairline, not in half), and on and on. I woke up exhausted and it keeps getting worse.

...And I'm officially sick. I really want to go back to bed, but all I have on there is a liner until things get out of the dryer.
