lately I just want to exist in a way that feels natural. no over explaining, no performance, just moving through life in a way that makes sense to me. slower, softer, more intentional. less about proving, more about being
allowing yourself to see the best in things + people is a choice. practicing daily gratitude is a choice. being kind is a choice. happiness is a choice. choosing to lead with love & not pain, envy, & sadness is all a choice
daring to make every space i inhabit a beautiful place to be in
Romances make me equally sad and hopeful
Imma be real . I regret it a lot. But when folks started throwing me up on lists and threatening to shoot me …
Ehh I went ah well if they get me personal they get me personal
AND
I do not go to protests
This is exactly the kind of thing multi-decade prison sentences were designed to deter. If only we had laws in the USA:

Shacoby Kenny. #SayHisName
He was killed in a Boston jail by correctional officers on December 7.
@wutrain.bsky.social's administration has been paying that Sheriff's Department to house arrestees prior to arraignment.
Public dollars are funding these killers. City and state. #ShutDownSouthBay
the last Black woman they had had actually developed amazing infrastructure to stop this dealing with misinformation
She was discriminated against so bad it won a white woman millions and she got nothing but passed Sunshine Laws
now it’s trust safety are now COMMS jobs too
In addition to how deeply wrong I believe this to be, it makes clear how complex our fight for the future will be.
We all need to REALLY understand why this is wrong and dangerous. And this is not only about people with dementia.
sometimes I think I am over reacting and I am and have been for two decades
and
the glib and often silent way folks ignored how AAVE and social justice language was appropriated and how the "good guys" refuse to take any correction about it
is why the right does this
and wins
I’d also like to add that a lot of folks idea of what young for their age is stems from whiteness.
I’ve said before black people look their age when you don’t compare how we age to how yt folks age. If we look at how we age as a collectively we DO look our age.
That lady is 32 years old.
THIRTY-TWO.
Charlie Kirk disease. The face is too small for the head.
after hearing entirely too much about Olivia Nuzzi's sexcapades, I thought 'well damn what does this woman look like?' and google imaged her
.....this is the Helen of Troy launching a thousand ships?
How do you land Vanity Fair west coast editor at age 32 after having affairs with two presidential candidates you were covering as a journalist. That is some prime white lady shit.
I need it
Contrary to popular belief, you CAN just give out money, resources, help to people. All willy nilly. If you got it, you CAN give it. Idk if yall knew that or not.
It actually blows me that we work so hard when our money holds so little value now 😭
Sometimes I get jealous of people who are retiring, then I remember they’re nearing the end of their natural lifespan and I get even more jealous.
I can’t believe how stupid everything is
What would have happened if rather than millions into AI folks had committed that to making good safety nets when Black woken were being forced into economic apartheid ?
Even those participating in upholding the prerogative state (ICE agents, Trump and his regime, MAGA voters) can believe that the prerogative state falls WITHIN the normal state.
Because it isnt harming them to the same degree and is touted as for the good of ALL of us. Thats scapegoating at play.
That is essentially white people throughout the entire history of this country but especially now.
Because the prerogative state does not apply to them and they live under the laws and rights afforded to them by the Constitution, they assume the normal state applies to everyone
Every day I feel hyperaware we are living in an even more blatant dual state
The dual state describes a society divided into a normal state, which operates according to set rules & laws, & a “prerogative state”, "which exercises unlimited arbitrariness & violence unchecked by any legal guarantees”
i don’t approve of shaming anyone for their “body count” but I do think some people should be more ashamed of their taste
Is all that coochie weighing you down?
Women who get an abortion and anyone who helps them could face up to 30 years in prison under the bill.
It appears to ban any contraception that prevents a fertilized egg from implanting. That would ban IUDs and could strictly limit in-vitro fertilization.
