I can’t stop thinking about how the coronavirus may affect people in the detention centers... Professionals are urging people to avoid crowds yet ICE is packing thousands of people, young and elderly, into prison-like areas with a dangerous lack of basic hygiene products. Just TODAY ICE arrested someone at a hospital in the middle of a PANDEMIC. Please keep these people in your thoughts.

I know lots of people know this, but prisons and concentration areas are hotbeds of disease. TB was a huge concern even when I worked as a guard in Louisiana about twenty years ago. You put a ton of people together in an area where the health access is seriously limited and you are essentially creating a human petri dish.

There’s a call to action for WA residents to call the governor and Sec of WADOC to provide sanitation and medical attention and free testing for the virus for those in prisons. Here is the Instagram post with more info: https://www.instagram.com/p/B9sIqbLJNkA/?igshid=hjhrcmwbdtie

If ur part of a community org, consider contacting ur members in signing this petition in freeing immigrants detained in ICE detentions, as the virus is a public health threat. Here’s the Instagram page for more info: https://www.instagram.com/p/B9rz18MFZo0/?igshid=16y3776kswg8s

Working in retail is wild, people just tell me things about their personal life and I just stand there. I don’t know how to respond to “my kid just died” or “I’m getting a divorce” like that’s sucks… $13.48 is your total.

the scene in men in black where will smith’s character thoroughly explained why he shot little suzie, a cardboard cut out of a small child holding advanced physics textbooks instead of the scary aliens all around her is an excellent allegory to racism. will smith’s character, a black man, has no doubt had to deal with various authority figures assuming he is the threat when context clues could easily explain away his behavior and with that backstory in mind, it is easy to see why his character identified with aliens simply existing in the world and explained away the supposed cause for concern by using the context clues provided. on the other end of the spectrum, the white characters who all elected to shoot the aliens on sight did so for no other reason then ‘they look like a threat’, ignoring the fact that a 7 year old child out in the middle of the street alone with advanced physics textbooks should raise more eyebrows than a tentacled creature with allergies. in this essay i will

update of this post as of june 27th 2018

we just got notice that the next hearing regarding mom’s alimony is set for july 31st 2018. we have a little over a month to raise the funds needed for the trip, which is between $800-$1,000 dollars. i need an oil change, i’m five thousand miles overdue for one. we need to make sure we have I have my cellphone up and running for the trip, which is $45. because travel with the dogs hotels are always expensive, even if they’re crappier ones. last hotel we stayed in on a trip to SC literally was infested with cockroaches and because of the pet fee it still cost us $100 fucking dollars for the night. 

we also need to make sure we can pay our bills and get our meds on top of all this, which, with me being uninsured and having no help yet from any government agencies is a big bill. i still desperately need therapy, but i’m going to have to put that off until after this hearing, because any money i get right now has to go for this trip. we cannot afford to put this hearing off or not be there, my dad has not paid alimony in ten months

he owes almost eight thousand dollars in back alimony, and there’s no guarantee we’re gonna see a penny of that.

my paypal is here, is has my deadname.  my venmo is here, and i also have content of things i’ve created wrt art and photography on my ko-fi, here. please check out my ko-fi, and donate through that if you like. it makes me feel good to show people i actually do things and have things i’ve done as a creator. 

if nothing else, as always, please at least boost this. thank you all for the help so far, hopefully this will be the last damn trip I have to make to south carolina. 

hey so apparently the government isn’t giving mom her money until after the weekend. the first is sunday and normally they drop it early, but i guess they’re fucking making us wait until monday or later for whatever reason. i literally have 3$ in the bank rn because both she and i needed meds. 

hey i’ve gotten no donations since i updated this post and i don’t think i can stress how important it is we have the money to get to SC for this hearing. 

im at 235 dollars of what we need to get prepped and able to go to SC, please keep helping. 

i only have three weeks to get to SC. there’s a good chance the alimony will get reinstated when we go. WE CANNOT MISS THIS HEARING PLEASE HELP.

Blaque Garden has officially launched!

What is Blaque Garden? - Blaque Garden is an attempt at making vegan/vegetarian and occasionally pescatarain meals accessible to everyone. I am a black chef, specializing in vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free cooking, and I want the world to know three things: this isn’t a white movement, this food can be accessible to people of all classes and abilities and that it can be easy and delicious to make. 

How are you going to do this? - By showcasing chefs of color, creating easy to follow recipe tutorials available for purchase, and by creating a network for people to share, ask questions, and learn without limitations. Blaque Garden will also offer tips and tricks on how to grow commonly used herbs and spices–even in apartments. 

Come dig in the garden.

Janelle monae is releasing a 50min sci-fi film with dirty computer, which is about a character who is on the run from an authoritarian government in a dystopian future to avoid the erasure of her memory, she searches for her love interest played by (tessa thompson) and each music video in the film represents one of the missing memories.

apparently the movie is about a subversive group of black, brown and queer people (set in a future closer than cindy mayweather’s), who are labeled as “deviants” and have their memories forcefully erased. you can read about it here
