The Road Goes Ever On And On

you have to make it homoerotic and weird

people are way too comfortable being dismissive of children and teenagers. if a toddler comes up to you and starts explaining skibidi toilet lore or if a 13 year old asks you if you want to hear about their mha ocs you have to listen with utmost sincerity or at least pretend to. this is the only way you will get into heaven.

genuinely depressing how people will dismiss the interests kids have because all it does is make them retreat into shame and never want to talk to you about anything again

blood as a fashion statement u either get it or u don’t

Can I be controversial for one sec

I do enjoy when fictional gay people are tormented by their sexualities and have internalized homophobia and are violent about it both with themselves + with others. I do love to see a bisexual self destructing because they don't accept their feelings. It's cathartic to ME.

#Don't get me wrong I'm glad that gay characters on TV can be shown to be happy. Huge W over the Hayes code.#However personally I enjoy a character that gay kisses someone and then self destructs about it @freedominthedarkmp3

the amount of white trans people on this website who go completely quiet when you bring racism into the conversation because they’ve never confronted their own prejudice and hide behind the “im a minority so i can’t even be racist!!” mindset instead of ever actually learning and giving a shit is so tiring what are we doing here

Being a person of color and trans is so weird. It’s great to get to see so many people have such body positivity for themselves in the community but it feels so isolating at the same time. I get to see people in my shared community become so happy with themselves but at the same time they aren’t me. It messed up my sense of identity for awhile when I first came to terms with being transfem because I wanted to look like a girl so I’d look to other transfems and take inspiration from them. This made me have such an urge to straighten my hair and use white feminine clothing instead of embracing one’s from my own culture. I couldn’t find anyone who was brown and trans so I didn’t know what that would look like.

I understand that there is no one way to look like a man or a woman and no one way to be trans but for any whites reading this think back to how it was pre-transition, pre-coming out, pre-realization. Remember that sense of being lost, how you knew something was different about you but you hadn’t seen anything nor found the terms to describe it. That’s a lot like how it felt for me being trans but not being able to see myself in anyone else who was.

Eventually I found myself but I had to form an identity of what a multiracial trans woman looked like to me mostly on my own. I looked at all sorts of aspects of my cultural and picked ones that felt feminine. I found the black is beautiful movement which helped me find that I didn’t need to straighten my hair to grow it long but instead grow it out into an Afro. I wear ponchos and flowy clothing similar to my Native American family. I’m glad I found myself but I still am constantly struggling to feel like a women because of the pressure of only seeing white trans people.

I know I don’t speak for every trans poc but I know that everyone of us struggles to find and maintain our image and our voice in this movement. Just know that we do exist and everything we do with our identity is just as beautiful and just as important as any other member of the trans community! <3

Also sidenote: don’t try and act like your antigovernment and for decolonization if you don’t seek out the input of those colonized and oppressed the most by said system. The same struggle does not mean the same scale, remember that.

Anytime someone asks “Why do people even live in Gotham City??” all I can think is: “Oh so you don’t understand the point of Gotham do you. You don’t understand that the entire point of the city is that people are too poor to move or even live, you don’t understand that poverty and corruption kills, you don’t understand that the some of the villains are a metaphor for what happens when people are desperate and pushed to the brink and crushed by capitalism, you don’t understand the entire point of the story.”

so I got this email a couple hours ago

the UNRWA is disbursing payments again! the US had to walk back its disastrous decision to quit funding Palestine relief. is $5m a very small place to start considering the work needing to be done, yeah, it is, but we are moving in the right direction finally.

if a poorly cropped email means nothing to you, here is their official statement!

Do we walk in legends or on the green earth in the daylight?

succumbing to your agoraphobic tendencies all by yourself handsome?

side by side

oh yeah forgot to post these guys

for when you're definitely very normal about Things

i think we’re hunting each other for sport. in another universe

in another life i would have really liked to just be killed by you & your bare hands

there's no greater betrayal than finally starting to read a book you've had sitting for months on your shelf or your desk or your nightstand and then finding out it's bad. like. i gave you a fucking home.
