Weeeee, sorry! I used to Tumblr in my spare, alone time. And now I live with my man and am trying to be more productive in my downtime. Life's so great, so sorry not sorry?

I don’t use Tumblr anymore, and neither do you. However, this is where we began and where we existed entirely (with the exception of that one night in LA), so I feel like this is where I should put this. I just want to thank you for showing me what I deserved from a partner. It was from the way you spoke to me that I realized I must be recognized as the goddess I am. It was from the intimacy we created while far apart that I realized I could let someone in who was close. It was everything I needed at that time, and I think you did too, and it was everything Bukowski wrote about in that one poem, so it was perfect.

Today I was all hungover and this babe let me shower first and made me mashed potatoes. Then we got out and got our fingers sized, window shopped, and had dinner and drinks. I'm so in love with this man and our life.

Best. Partner. Ever.

I woke up in a suuuper pissy mood, went to go get bagels, and when I came back Alex could tell I was off. He held me and kissed me and told me all the fun things I could do today. I got up to make breakfast and he put on Flashdance and danced with me until I cried from laughing. No one has ever tried so hard to make me feel better... Even in this dark mood, I'm feeling super blessed.

Wow if only racism didn’t exist I was Khloe Kardashian, then I would have been praised throughout high school for wearing hijab instead of being called terrorist for days and weeks and months living in the South.

If only my good friend who had rocks thrown at her for wearing hijab

could just have the privilege of being Khloe.

If only thewomen in France facing anti-veil discrimination could just be Khloe Kardashian. 

Habibi Love, man, Habibi Love. Apparently it’s that simple.

Cultural appropriation: the adoption of certain elements (bindi, niqab, etc) of an oppressed people’s culture/practice by a privileged dominant culture, for the purposes of enjoyment (or to appear exotic and “hipster”), and without the adoption of the experiences of racism, oppression, and discrimination that are manifested in those elements for the minority groups. Cultural appropriation is Khloe being praised for wearing something that Muslim women get abused and discriminated against for wearing on the daily. It is when Khloe wears it for an Instagram post, while Muslim women devotedly choose to wear it to follow their faith, despite the racism and discrimination they (we) face.

I hope you find someone who doesn’t make you sad at night and someone who reminds you how much they love you every day and who laughs at your jokes and wants to listen to your music and who genuinely what’s to be with you and doesn’t make you second guess their love for you. I really hope you find that. Because you deserve that.

California prisons sterilized female inmates without permission (by RTAmerica)

I’m going to watch this later but I’m boosting and posting because this happened very recently and needs to be brought to light

In 2013!!!! Omg.

2 Questions:

1. Where is the outrage from mainstream feminism?

2. Where are the supposed pro-lifers?

*I don’t actually need responses to these questions, cause I already know the answers. 

Bolded.

I feel sick. 

Not 150 years ago. Not fifteen years ago. Not fifteen months ago. LAST. YEAR.

And not a word from mainstream white feminists

But hey, it’s regarding jailed WOC so it’s not their concern, right?

This makes me so fucking angry, I can’t even process the information. I just… ugh. I’m gonna go punch a wall or a police officer or something.

Here’s an article about it for those for whom text works better than a video.

This is so fucked up.
