What’s being negotiated is not whether you are with a person being trans…

The negotiation here is who gets to matter

Who gets to retain their humanity

Who is it okay to abuse

I wanna believe with all my soul that before I left Heaven, the angels touched me and cured me of the urge to have children. It doesnt even cross my mind beyond a slight curiosity sometimes of who I would be as a mother. I have no urge. No desire. And even so, $79 infant formula would cure it

Anyway, today I want Black women and femmes to the front with their GFMs, crowdsourcing needs, and mutual aid requests. Also, drop your Venmo, PayPal, CA, etc.

Pay it forward in an intentional and effective way.

If you’re not aware that the “sin of empathy” is making real end roads into popular evangelicalism you need to be aware

I was reading about a psychological study done on Nazi-era Germans. It tried to find out what kind of person is silent during the rise of authoritarianism. And they determined that the way they parented their children did it. Punishing any challenges to authority, etc. creates submissive citizens.

Socialization is a bitch. Especially to those who haven’t been taught what socialization is
It's really hard to undo conditioning. Especially when you don't believe you've been conditioned.

They folks used to eat us.
We used to practice hygiene and they used to eat us after they lynched us.

That level of depravity feels inaccessible to the human mind because no human should be able to access it.

Hayley Thee Williams for me
Every Black person has their ONE white fave you cant tell them anything about.

For my mama, it’s Michael McDonald. For me, it’s Sarah Michelle Gellar. You would have to show me UNDENIABLE proof that Sarah Michelle Gellar planned and executed 9/11 for me to turn against Buffy Summers.

learned that last bit the hard way. don’t be like me.
I’m a very principled person but my morals are fluid based upon the context. For example, I think killing an innocent person unprovoked is wrong but I’m not against the act of killing if the situation calls for it. Rigid morals are a sure fire way to become a victim.

If anyone knows of any extra-help, substitute librarian or library worker jobs (especially in the Bay Area) please kindly send them my way! (:

I’ve applied to a couple of places, but either haven’t heard back or they went with someone else.

Long live libraries! ✨💚📚

I don’t know why it’s so hard for people to understand that I’m not wealthy . Yes I work hard , yes people listen to my music , yes I have a large following but I barely make anything from that and I have never pretended to .

Ain’t gon lie but it’s definitely been troubling seeing folks either wishing deportation on folks or hinting at calling ICE.

That’s the modern day Gestapo, full stop. Fuck is wrong with you?

I think it’s really important we identify the companies that are doing the right thing and reward them with our business.
NOW: More than 98% of #Costco shareholders have just rejected an anti-DEI measure

The attempt to force Costco to audit their #DEI work was by an anti-inclusion lobby group:

"The proponent's broader agenda is not reducing risk for the Company but abolition of diversity initiatives." - Costco Board
