This immigration shit is scary man they just approved to deport US citizens to other counties..Theres literally people being kidnapped from the streets by strangers pretending to be DHS/ICE…theres insane protests going on that get rowdy cuz the bitch ass cops and ICE like to incite violence.Its weird to try and live every day while knowing the whole world is watching the USA crash and burn because of our brain dead president. Every day it gets worse and worse.

I wish i never dyed it "purple" (it was fucking black fr). I'm excited for July, idk what to do for my birthday. Last year was really really bleak and depressing so I just am happy to be alive. I hope that I can spend time with my family and friends. I don't care about anything else. That's it!
