To @kushandwizdom this is a rather unfair portrayal of Africa as a whole since half of these are literally just South Africa.  So Instead to add to this post and better dispel the myth of Africa as the vast wasteland of poverty most people think, I found a much more mixed collection of pics from various countries.

Luanda, Angola

Agadir, Morocco

Lagos, Nigeria

Cairo, Egypt

Port Louis, Mauritius

Abidjan, Cote d’Ivoire

Algiers, Algeria

Tripoli, Libya

Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

Tunis, Tunisia

A redneck neighbor once asked my mom (in the 80s) if they had cars in Peru. Sigh.

Hartford, Connecticut

New Orleans, Louisiana

Camden, New Jersey

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

McDowell County, West Virginia

Flint, Michigan

Washington, D.C.

Of course traditional African homes look different from homes in the US or Europe- they’ve started from different climates and resources. It’s such racist hubris to assume different means lesser-than.

IVE BEEN GOOD TYS!!!!!!!

legiterally so busy cause of school so i haven’t been as active 😥

it’s a lotta back to school stuff rn so i’m like running around trying to get everything done lol

the same bitches who see a man trying on candy scented perfume rather than axe body spray and go "omg you go girl!!" "see you during your transition sweetie! 😘" "which could mean nothing!" are the same bitches who decry the gender binary and say shit like "makeup has no gender!" "clothes have no gender!" "your self expression doesn't equal your gender!" it's almost like y'all see queerness as inherently feminine. hmm.

maybe this is a hot take, but goofing around with gender expression isn't restricted to queer people, nor should it be. cishet men can wear skirts and eyeliner. cishet girls can bind and cut their hair short. cishet people can get funky with presentation and still be happy as their agab. stop reinforcing gender binaries by calling every seemingly cishet person who decides to deviate from gender norms an egg

very conflicting I know but I’m doing good

YOURE GONNA DO AMAZING

idk how you’re so patient but it will definitely pay off bc that’s that much effort has too

Some potteryyy me and my ma got some Das clay from the craft shops so we made some candle holders that we're decoratinggg

my two besties (who have never met) moved into their college dorms

one is in my state one is in some random state that I’m finding so many memes for

I’m gonna miss them a lot especially since I moved to the middle of nowhere in my state

getting ready for college, accepted my fate of going to a scary whit ppl college bc my mom wanted me to be near our new home but everything is fine

still riding the high of my high school teachers missing me and being proud of me and wishing me luck for the future

excited for my bestie friends to start their new lives

nervous for my new life (it’s really weird of living in a super diverse area to “what’s diversity” area)

therapy has been going well finally found a therapist

gradually returning to my hobbies (well at least doodling and some writing)

oooo college has got to be exciting thooo which courses are you taking?

good luck with the predominant whiteness too, I kinda get it because in my neighborhood my dad was like one of 17 black people there total for a good 4 or 5 years of my life

omg congrats on the therapist! I'm glad that's going well!

I’m taking development lifespan psychology, public speaking, stats 101, public health 101, and a ghosts and legends around the world class. This is for first semester

oh my gosh that’s basically here for me. Sigh thanks I’m sure it will somehow work out (?)

yayayay thanks! Making progress! Very slow but progress!

Those are such cool courses omg? I hope you have a good time but that must be a packed first semester

Yeah trust even tho it's paper white people are usually quite accepting here and more curious than hateful so I hope it's the same for youuuu
