We will still be queer, trans, gender nonbinary, and genderqueer no matter what our passports say.

In fact, as history shows, the more they try to silence and shut us down, we only get louder, stronger, FIERCER & QUEERER.

I recommend AGAINST using an AI (agentic) browser like OpenAI’s Atlas or Perplexity’s Comet at this time.

These platforms have not worked out the bare minimum privacy and security issues of agent AI access and sharing.

I DO NOT CONSENT.

Without consent, there is only violence.

I do not consent to fascism, surveillance, people recording without explicit permission, policing, prisons, facial recognition, biometric theft, I CE, borders,

Recording and running people through databases without their consent using Meta Glasses makes you still a glasshole.

Settler colonizer Israel is still
actively attacking, occupying, invading, and targeting Palestinians.

Korea has been under a U.S.-imposed ceasefire for 70 years, and we have been occupied every day since, still.
October 14, 2025 at 12:51 AM
Our fight is to make Indigenous People’s Day every single day.
For this to happen, we must end settler colonialism entirely.

This means toppling Empire, LandBack, and also, defeating the internal colonizer in our minds.

The NYC MTA is transitioning to OMNY tap-and-pay cards, rendering swipe cards obsolete by June 2026.

OMNY is notorious for tracking riders through our devices, digital wallets, and credit card top-ups, and the MTA is besties with the NYPD. MTA Surveillance is a given.

May Indigenous people everywhere, Palestine, Hawai’i, Turtle Island, “Japan,” Puerto Rico, Aotearoa, the Amazon, “Australia,” Korea, across every continent, land, air, and water be free.
October 12, 2025 at 8:19 PM
If you make a deepfake of someone without their consent, you are committing a nonconsensual violation.
October 10, 2025 at 2:05 AM
May Palestinians have a moment to breathe, gather, mourn, rest, and live.

A reminder for the rest of us. Korea has been under ceasefire for 70 years, technically still at war, and still occupied by the U.S. Empire.
We are not yet free. I wish more for Korea.

I wish more for Palestine, too.

I currently recommend against uploading your biometrics to OpenAI’s new social feed app, Sora.

Sora’s Cameo option has the user upload their own biometrics to create voice/video Deepfakes of themselves. The user can also set their preferences to allow others to create Deepfakes of each other, too.

Several ships in the historic Global Sumud Flotilla of 50+ vessels have been and are being attacked and intercepted by “Israel.”

Again, I recommend moving away from and being mindful of using of TikTok.

Oracle, one of the most privacy-violating, pro-surveillance, genocide-supporting, pro-policing corporations to exist, is taking over co-ownership of TikTok.

A reminder, when enough of us boycott, it works, and can work quickly even. It is a spectacular example of the power of organizing.

Yes, we can bring corporations to their ruin when we act together.

Also, there is no need stop boycotting when the corporations are rotten at the core.

I DO NOT CONSENT to anyone capturing my image, audio, or video with Meta glasses. If you do so it is without my permission, a violation, and nonconsensual.

While being in “public” may not be private, we should have a right to privacy.

Genocide is committed by genociders.

"Israel" has been committing the genocide of Palestinians with the full willful material and political support of the "United States" and others.

We already knew this.
But more importantly, they already knew this.

If collective liberation for all is truly in your heart, you will find that your destiny, by definition, aligns with this life purpose.

This is regardless of your "work," as you will find that your body, mind, and spirit usher you toward your destiny.

※ The genocide of Indigenous people to establish the “United States” and “Israel”
※ HBCUs needing to be on lockdown because of racist threats
※ Attacking a flotilla bringing life-saving supplies and food to Gaza
※ Islamophobia’s impacts

Apple just announced their new product line today.

We do not need the new iPhone Air.

war.gov

This is now the official government site and name for what was known as the Department of Defense. The United States is a war corporation. Always.
