Those of us who are any color other than white, don't worship a god that isn't the state wearing the skin of their Jesus like a puppet or Queer as hell; you know what the game is. We been knew that they will never give anything that will inevitably help us even if it helps them. They will throw themselves to the fire as long as we burn hotter. Right now, Find something to do. Even if you're at work and forced to put on a smile for shit ass customers or your boss that you know wants to get rid of you. Do. Something. Something that gets you out of your head, off the ledge, anything. Im not saying that it's not alright to be in your feelings right now. Please process that. Please hold yourself and your feelings and aknowlege them. But put them into something to make you sane.

But most of all. I want y'all to exist. I want yall here. There is still love in the world there is still something to hang onto and without yall, we loose another light in the dark.

I know I don't talk much here, I just reblog shit and shitpost from time to time and my actual voice isn't so much around; but I need y'all to know that I love yall. I just as afraid as the rest of you but I want to see you all at the end of the tunnel.

No more trans doom scrolling! Today we are embracing trans hedonism!

people need to spend less time on social media ! that’s not a bad opinion to have ! talk to real people on the ground in your commmnity , connect with loved ones and friends who you think are at risk of falling down online right-wing -esque rabbit holes and show them that they are loved , and it’s ok to be vulnerable and kind as an expression of masculinity , and it’s ok to have opinions and feelings .

help your friends see the world for all its beauty and majesty , and learn to let your feelings wash over you as an experience , not as a guiding force for your actions .

thank you i love you .

There are lives on the line.

The Trevor Project reported that usage of their suicide hotline increased by 700% the day after the election.

Women have already died because of the overturning of Roe v. Wade, and there are so many bans that haven't even been passed yet.

These are such simple facts, and yet somehow we have forgotten them.

As a reminder, the extremists who are and will have power in our government are against, or support people who are against:

Separation of religion and state, equal rights for women, equal rights for people of color, victims of rape, gay marriage, gay families, the existence and right to live of trans people, education, native rights, poor rights, and truth.

How can we go back to our jobs? How can we go back to our classes?

By not fighting every single goddamn day, we disgrace the legacy of King, of Malcom, of Martha P. Johnson, of Parks, of Ginsburg, of Susan B. Anthony, of Du Bois, and the millions of people who fought and died so we could have the right to make change today.
