O is a paradox of symbols;

O is the symbol of eternal recurrence, without beginning or end;

is the ouroboros, whose end is in it’s beginning;

O is oneness;

O is zero;

is omega, the end;

O is the full moon;

O is the sun;

O is the halo behind the saint;

O is the world, the universe, the globe;

O is the metallic alumen, aluminium;

O is the Platonic solid, the sphere;

O is the mathematical circle, the most complete shape;

O is the chivalric Round Table;

O is the humanistic container of man;

O is the architectural dome, the oast house, the Round Tower, the orchestra, the arena, the ‘wooden O’, the circus, the alchemical gold, perfection’.

I’m so exhausted of men looking at me like they want something.

This is how you deal with spies: you take their eyes. If they whisper, you take their tongue. If they write a letter, you take a hand. If they plot against you, you take their head. That’s how you deal with spies.

Also just pointing out that I got my real-life job that pays me honest-to-god money as a result of experience I gained from previous (paid) positions that I was invited to take on due to my expertise and background in equity and social justice - all of which I learned from tumblr dot com

So again, to everyone who thinks that “sjws” are “ruining” “the world” with their “pc” “bullshit” and that all that dialogue is useless and irrelevant. I’m but one (albeit very lucky) individual who, at the foundation of it, owes her job everything I learnt.

Don’t listen to bigots. They’re not interested in your success. They’re not interested in radical progress. They’re not interested in liberation. They’re not interested in us.

Keep going. Keep learning. Keep caring for and nurturing yourself and your communities. Keep uplifting you and yours.

Keep growing.

Last week I was unemployed; this week I'm employed and plans are in the works for me to become an interpreter for Russian-speaking immigrants and refugees. Life moves quickly.

remember when queer was a radical political statement that connoted anger against heteropatriarchy, as opposed to something hets are dying to be included in

Now girls are often raised to see love only as giving. Women are praised for their love when that love is an act of giving. But to love is to give AND to take. Please love by giving, and by taking. Give and be given. If you are only giving and not taking, you’ll know. You’ll know from that small and true voice inside you that we females are so often socialized to silence. Don’t silence that voice. Dare to take.

It’s impossible for me to be happy; psychologically and chemically impossible. So I’m going to help some little girl out there. I’m going to let her know that I have stretch marks on my ass, and bunions, that I don’t have my shit together at all. Please say that I don’t have my shit together. I want to give that girl some hope. I want her to know that she doesn’t have to have her shit together. She doesn’t. It’s okay if she doesn’t. I’m going to prove that, and then I’m going to die.

Is being a diaspora baby always going to be this way? Am I always going to struggle to organize and connect all these parts of my world? Am I really just externalizing my inner chaos and recreating it in the physical sphere? Is the world too big for me to stay in one place or am I too small to leave pieces of my heart all over it like I have been doing so carelessly for 25 years?
