the autonomy paradox: a theory of marginalization

is something really fast if it’s not a little black girl being accused of inviting sexual harm/violence onto herself even though it’s the responsibility of the adults around her to interfere in & prevent said violence?

As discussed recently, I hate the language of invisible vs. visible disability—but also, this is one of those things that seems to never die in Disabled communities. Non-apparently Disabled people assuming that apparently Disabled people are somehow treated better. It's just different.

simply being contrary is not engaging in critical thinking!

most days, i don’t even own the will to get out of bed. so.

i have to question the idea of ā€œinvisible disabilities.ā€

so…the goal has been the genocide/ethnic cleansing of palestinians all along?

i’m a bit hopeful about the future. just a bit.

the rehearsal: a show about an autistic man getting an absolutely reckless amount of institutional support

While we’re on founding fathers, I think people actually *underrate* the Gothic horror of Jefferson and Sally Hemings. She was his slave, she was also his dead wife’s much younger half sister as a result of Jefferson’s father in law raping *his* slave.

call me pedantic (& i’ll agree) but i think a fundamental issue is the idea itself. the broken system idea is not it because 1) the system is not broken, it’s functioning as it’s meant to, & 2) brokenness implies it can be fixed & therefore doesn’t need to be thrown out completely (which it does).

look, even if it was true that they didn’t vote for this or know what they were voting for (it’s generally not), it would still be worth shaming because at what point are you just willing to remain ignorant? willful ignorance is worth shaming. at best.

white anarchists make me question if i’m actually an anarchist & i…don’t like that.

ā€œloserā€ is such a simple yet precise & cutting insult. i deeply appreciate it.

Just absolutely not interested in the takes of people who discourage direct aid and suggest /only/ giving to orgs.

weird feeling to be even somewhat joyful at the end of the world but

i’m getting the chance to be a part of something really fucking cool at the moment šŸ™‚

i've been living off of my credit card all month because i took medical leave after spending all my money to move so if anyone wants to help with groceries i would appreciate it

last time probably because asking for things gives me hives

something i’ve learned over the years is to never underestimate the depths to which the state of american politics & its structures can sink. & i’m not necessarily surprised. but. like. aaahhh???

My new Teen Vogue op-Ed is out now! I reflected on the murder of George Floyd, the 2020 protests, and how important our history and collective resistance is now in Trump’s America. Please give it a read www.teenvogue.com/story/george...

do they just wanna sunset the corporation at this point?

no šŸ™‚

a sudden & overwhelming teen angst urge to vaguepost the lyrics ā€œthat’s what you get when you let heart winā€

i’m so funny gosh darn it

we need more games where the objective is becoming perry the platypus

parrying? what about perrying? what about turning into perry the platypus?

this shit threw me off so bad 😭

eating food good

microsoft’s read-aloud automated voice thing reads the word ā€œmartyredā€ like ā€œmar-tiredā€ & i just think that’s a fun little discovery

philly is…interesting.

scooby-doo 2: monsters unleashed 🫔

if capitalism didn’t exist, neither would scams!

šŸŽ¶ & i cry, it’s not fair šŸŽ¶

i do not like my deadname & i am wrestling with the fact that i’ll likely never be able to change it legally.

ā€œhandicapableā€ is such a funny term because what the fuck does it even mean like, you can just call me a cripple because i know that’s what you (most likely) really wanna say

that bluesky is unattractive is a weird takeaway from the results of this poll when you could just say you don’t wanna leave twitter šŸ™‚

next month marks a year since i started my locs 🄹

this is such a good fucking poem omg & it came out of my brain. like, this nigga was spitting, & i’m the nigga.
