Better to write angst in hell than fluff in heaven

"The Saint Heron Library is home to our archival collection of primarily rare, out of print, and 1st edition titles by Black & brown authors, poets, & artists," she captioned on Instagram.

Throughout time, when certain aspects of physical media aren't accessible, a digital archive library is crucial in a society driven by fast-paced media consumption, where the depth and nuance of marginalized voices can easily be overlooked or forgotten.

In our digital age, where much of our interaction with media is limited to clicks and reposts, Knowles’ digital archive provides a safe space for scholarly and artistic work that might otherwise be lost. Saint Heron’s library aims to foster a space where the wisdom and creativity of these “great minds” can thrive, supported by an infrastructure that champions preservation and accessibility. The library will not only serve as a place of significant works but also act as a catalyst for more conversations around artists, scholars and enthusiasts. "As the market and demand for these books, zines, and catalogues rises, we would like to play a small part in creating free access to the expansive range of critical thought and expression by these great mindsss," Knowles said.

Before Pride Month comes to an end, I wanted to memorialize my husband unintentionally calling me a bisexual failure at the start of the month. (We laughed about it later, and I wasn't really offended!)

An edited screenshot from season four episode 10 of Black Sails. It is a close-up of Captain Flint (he is visible from the shoulders up.) Behind him is the lush, green, ominous forested landscape of Skeleton Island. He is leaning forward intently, from a seated position, looking imploringly and distraughtly at something (Silver) off-screen. Flint's face is dust-covered and bloodied, having recently been in a battle.

Atop the image is a fake caption (with an edited line from the 2026 Odyssey film) reading: "Our golden age of piracy is collapsing."

Justice for Tasia Fortune

Black ppl in the US do not hang ourselves, that is something that was done to us way too much by nonblack ppl for us to prefer that as a way to self harm. there have been so many recent cases of Black men, women, boys, & girls coming up found lynched this year alone.

most being ruled as suicide without further investigation. but aint never been no laws or coordinated media efforts to stop hate against Black ppl, no mass organizing done by nonblack on our behalf to protect us, unprompted.

Black people in the empire and outside of it have always, ALWAYS, been the ones to force other groups to pay attention when we make noise for each other and incite action where everyone else is too cowardly & comfortable in their own locations on the axis of white centrism bc their groups not affected to the same degree, intensity, intentionality.

i was incredibly dysphoric about my round face and softer features until i started looking at the faces of hispanic men and realized that those features weren’t feminine at all, they were ethnic features white supremacy had conditioned me to see as less masculine
