Some lesser seen rodents... & non-rodents

it effects everything.

being trans is easier when youre white.

being gay is easier when youre white.

being disabled is easier when youre white.

being a woman is easier when youre white.

being autistic is easier when youre white.

oppression is eased when you are white, as you get extra privileges, and your whiteness is seen as a positive characteristic that in some ways counter-balances your other forms of being a minority. whiteness controls everything.

you are automatically way more innocent in your own oppression as a gay, trans, disabled person because of your whiteness.

three things:

1. it’s true

2. white people get pissed when i bring this up/wear this shirt

White queer fandom will go out of their way to ship white and\or light skin characters with anyone else but their partner of color, they ignore and avoid ships of color or ships that include characters of color of all sexualities but claim they don't like "x ship" because its het when they treat queer characters of color in relationship just as bad and in my opinion, worse than het ships of color which are already hated and ignored by fandom. Men of color, women of color, queer people of color in ships?? Not on their watch! These can't be cute, they've got too much melanin!

They claim they cant relate to characters of color and ignore feminist and queer stories and experiences of people of color. They say black women in ships are "too good" for the men their with so they take the man and ship him with everyone else because shes "strong and independent on her own and he cant handle all that!" Black character has chemistry with white character? No they dont! Your just reading into it too much! They're boring together according to white fandom!

They must insert their view of white queerness into anything they don't feel they can connect with, thing is about culture? Being mixed? Generational trauma among families of color? Must be about white queerness in some way!

My sister took more photos of my dress. I am very happy with how this turned out :)))))

i HATE self-censorship for a lot of reasons, but being in crisis work makes it even more frustrating. who are you censoring for? like i am being so fr, WHO are you censoring for? have you even thought it through? people who have been raped know that they have been raped. if someone attempts suicide or is grieving someone who did, saying "sewer slide" isn't going to protect them from any of the feelings. a murder victim's family isn't going to feel better bc you said "unalived" instead of murdered. if anything, it's just extremely invalidating and othering. it's saying "what happened to you is so bad that i won't even say the word," which is NOT trauma-informed care. you are not protecting survivors/victims when you self-censor. the ONLY things you protect when you self-censor are the puritanical ideologies that are being encouraged by rich fascists who want your money and obedience

I FORGOT IT WAS BIMMY APPRECIATION DAY

YOU DO IT ON ONE OF THESE! OBVIOUSLY!!!

and that brown end? the hard bit? pencil sharpener. or sharpened with a blade. are you following me? now, attach six of those to a harpy.

If you get into white work embroidery, you might discover cutwork. And when you start doing cutwork, you might get curious about incorporating detached elements. And before you know it the fabric is gone, you are making needle lace, and there goes the rest of your week.

Buttonhole stitch - not even once.

I am begging you and your fellow MN voters to vote in the August 11th Minnesota primary election so we can have Peggy Flanagan as a senator instead of Angie Craig who voted to empower and support the federal agencies that have invaded and occupied our state and continue to harm our communities.
