Don’t Imagine Aaron Minyard
- Don’t imagine two year old Aaron Minyard putting himself to bed because Mommy is busy doing shots to reruns on television.
- Don’t imagine Aaron at three, being left alone because Tilda didn’t have time to find a babysitter and went so work anyway.
- Don’t imagine Aaron trying to climb the shelves in the pantry to get something to eat.
- Don’t imagine him falling, spilling stale Cheerios across the floor, and not telling Tilda his wrist hurts because he’s afraid he will get in trouble.
- Don’t imagine Tilda having to take Aaron with her on a vacation with her new boyfriend because the sitter wouldn’t watch him until she got paid.
- Don’t imagine that boyfriend being annoyed that Aaron dares to exist, to intrude.
- Don’t imagine them putting Aaron in the bathroom of a crappy hotel so they can have sex.
- Don’t imagine Aaron covering his ears because they don’t try to be quiet, tryin to fight back tears because it’s scary and the tile is cold.
- Don’t imagine Tilda yelling at Aaron because he messed everything up. Again.
- Don’t imagine that string of boyfriends teasing ten-year-old Aaron, making inappropriate and cruel jokes while Tilda laughs like it’s funny.
- “How’s he going to get pussy if he can’t even reach the top shelf?”
- He’s ten. He only partly understands the meaning, but he’s somehow ashamed anyway.
- Don’t imagine twelve-year-old Aaron coming on vacation again with Tilda when she doesn’t want him there.
- Getting called “Andrew” for the first time by a cop he doesn’t know.
- Don’t imagine the stinging slaps for “talking to that man” and getting him involved in their business.
- Don’t imagine the first time Tilda beats Aaron until he’s begging— until his face bruises and blackens. Not the first time he’s been hit, but the first he can’t get up in the morning because of it.
- Don’t imagine hearing that phone call, with his own mother confirming his worst fears; that he was unwanted. That she wished she hadn’t kept either of them if Andrew was going to be punishment for it now.
- Don’t imagine that Aaron’s only memories of touch are pinches, scratches and blows.
- Don’t imagine Aaron meeting his brother for the first time and being embarrassed by the dark bruises covering his skin like paint.
- Don’t imagine Aaron wanting so badly to be loved that he’s willing to open his home to a complete stranger who hardly looks at him.
- Don’t imagine him being promised to be protected, for the first time.
- Don’t imagine the next day, when Tilda beats him bloody anyway.
- Don’t imagine him trying to hide that disappointment, that bitterness.
- Don’t imagine the Aaron being called out of study hall by Andrew’s name.
- Don’t imagine the way the news rings in his ears— dead. Dead. Gone forever.
- Don’t imagine Aaron knowing it was Andrew.
- Don’t imagine Aaron fearing what will happen next, all alone in the world save for a brother who he hardly knows— who killed his mom.
- Don’t imagine feeling conflicted— being ashamed of the relief he feels walking into the house without Tilda there to throw things if he messes up.
- Don’t imagine Aaron choking back tears because he is so hurt and confused and scared.
- Don’t imagine that Aaron is only sixteen and everything familiar is gone.
- Don’t imagine Aaron Minyard if you’re not going to see these things too.

HOW TO KEEP YOURSELF SAFE DURING THE 4CHAN RAID
Simply, I’m sick of all the crap 4Chan is putting the Tumblr commmunity through right now, and I think everyone else is as well.
They add rape, gore and porn images to the most common tags, because they think triggering people and causing them to inflict harm upon themselves is entertaining. That’s right guys, hilarious.
They’re planning to hack accounts on top of that.
Thankfully, many of these issues can be remedied if we can work together.
1. CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD.
This should speak for itself. With the account hacking and everything, make sure you change your password quickly for obvious reasons. You should tell your followers also that if porn, gore or whatever else starts getting posted, it isn’t your doing.
2. THE NEXT 4CHAN RAID IS SET TO BE THE 20TH OF JULY.
On this day, the 4chan members have planned to unleash their tsunami of shock images onto the trending tags. Thankfully, this can be solved if we work together. Make sure you clear those tags of 4chan’s doing by posting the stuff that you SHOULD expect to find there.
3. STAY AWAY FROM TAG SEARCHING.
Be cautious. You don’t know what to expect, and if any of it triggers you, it won’t be pretty.
4. IF YOU HAVE A HISTORY OF SUICIDAL ATTEMPTS, THOUGHTS ETC, STAY AWAY FROM THE SITE.
This is simply for your own personal safety. Even if you follow step 3, there’s a chance a blog you follow will be hacked and you will see shock and trigger images pasted all over your dashboard. No one on Tumblr wants to see that happen, and they especially don’t want you getting hurt.
5. TURN OFF ANON ASKS AND ALL FORMS OF SUBMISSIONS.
Shock images, viruses and whatever the hell else have been reported to have been sent through asks and submissions. If you see something suspicious, ignore, block and report immediately, don’t respond to it in any way. Turn off anon asks and submissions to make sure it doesn’t wind up in your inbox.
6. DO NOT PROVOKE 4CHAN USERS IN ANY WAY.
THIS WILL ONLY MAKE THE 4CHAN VS TUMBLR WAR EVEN WORSE.
7. DON’T POST ANY SELFIES WHATSOEVER.
You wanna know what 4Chan are doing with them? They are editing them onto pornography, even if the person in the selfie is underage. THIS IS ILLEGAL, IF YOU SEE IT, REPORT IT TO THE AUTHORITIES IMMEDIATELY.
8. BE WARY OF ANY LINKS.
4Chan is also planning to replace the links to suicide hotlines with links to images of committing suicide, which is the opposite of what a hotline masterpost is supposed to do. Some links have also been edited to send out a virus. Stay away from links altogether if you want to be totally safe.
9. SIGNAL BOOST THIS. A LOT.
THE LAST THING WE NEED IS TO SEE ANYONE BEING HURT BY 4CHAN’S ACTIONS. SIGNAL BOOST THIS, SHARE THIS AND REBLOG THIS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. IT NEEDS TO BE KNOWN AND COULD SAVE A LIFE.
IMPORTANT
THIS IS NO JOKE- PLEASE! If not for you- then for your followers! There are people of all ages here and most of this is extremely wrong and illegal regardless! Don’t let this warning go unheard!!!
To all my followers, I am turning off anon asks until this has passed. I am deeply sorry, but it’s not like I get many asks. I suggest you to turn off anonymous asks, as well, and follow these directions like a law, For your own safety. Take care.
I will be turning off anon asks and submissions for as long as i need to and encourage you to all do the same. Also follow every single step to make sure you stay safe.
Turning off anon and going inactive for the 20th-22nd
Even if this might be one of the not funny jokes that you can find here on this site often, I’ve turned off the anon-function and submissions. I’ve no intention to awake any memories I worked to forget so hard the past years.
Guys, I will be turning off anon during the 19th-22nd, and I will be less active than usual. I will only post without tags, if I post at all. This is for your safety.
Anon messaging and submissions will be turned off from the 18th of July through the 22nd, there will be little to no activity at all from the 19th to the 21st.
“You’re coming. And we’re gonna find you a nice girl that you can embarrass yourself in front of and find me a lacrosse player. Because statistically speaking, someone on your team has gotta be on my team.”
The person I reblogged this from deserves to be happy.
I give you a prompt that Harry is the one who falls in love with Eggsy first. And he never thinks a young man has the same feeling. he tries to make Roxy and Eggsy be a couple so he can give up on Eggsy even Harry is hurt as hell. It makes Eggsy angry ’cause Harry is an idiot to not realize the feelings of Eggsy even though he showed it clearly
bitchbetterhavemybucky-deactiva:
I think I’m getting back into the swing of these prompts 🙂 It feels good.
I hope you like this
