Sorry y’all, I stopped posting here. I’ve been on ghetto ass trifling ass Threads. What’s going on over here?

50% it’s fucking good

Nonbinary people dealing with transphobia in silence. Nonbinary people being gendered. Nonbinary people being told that they aren’t trans. Nonbinary people facing transphobia from cis-🏳️‍🌈 Nonbinary people never being seen as nonbinary.

I can’t afford a therapist or counselor, but I really need some life/ career advice. If anyone who is queer/ trans/ BIPOC (not required) knowledgeable and experienced could take the time to chat with me, I’d deeply appreciate it.

I might keep Bluesky open during the week since it doesn’t make me depressed like threads does.

One week off of social media and I feel REJUVENATED! I tend to hyperfixate on things and since I wasn’t online navigating drama after drama online— I focused on my hobbies and my friends.

“Where were you just now?” a voice asked. They blinked and found four people staring back at them. They were sitting at a table in a bar. Drink in hand. Numb. “What?” was all they could say, smiling with their eyes closed. A few seconds to refocus their vision.

Pay attention to: Who they support. Who they align their power and privilege with. Who they show grace and love to. What do these people tend to look like? What patterns do you see? Some of yall tell on yourselves. Often. Yet no one notices it.

“You’re not nice.” With the context of our society, expecting me to be nice about exclusionary media is wild. I don’t consume white media because it doesn’t meet my standards. But I also have standards for BIPOC books.

AID REQUEST: I am looking for grad school programs for art/ illustration and creative writing. Or artist in residency programs. Any advice or information would be appreciated. Email in my bio. Or dm me. ♥️

For those of us Black Americans that come from inter-generational poverty that is traced back to slavery— How ya doing? Me, I left the country and I can’t go back. Highly recommend.

Inter-generational poverty can be traced back to slavery and so can inter-generational wealth. ♥️ Ya know. In case you needed a reminder. Maybe ask your white friends about their ancestry? Nah? Okay.

I just spent a week moving 5 villagers on my island and now yall are telling me that I could have just TIME TRAVELED TO CLEAR MY ISLAND?!

*finds their favorite author online* Be cool. Be cool. Be cool. I LOVE YOU! YOURE AMAZING! KEEP WRITING! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

I have a few jean jackets that I want to design and paint. The goal is to either wear them myself or sell them. But I can’t figure out which design to choose from. One is a bit more detailed so will take longer to complete and the other would be fairly simplistic.

Originally my book was supposed to be a graphic illustrative type of novel. More pictures than text. But for adults. It actually really bothers me that novels don’t have illustrations throughout them.

From the drafts:

My vacation was wonderful. I was hoping that I’d return hating yall less and nope. I hate yall more. Now I’m doing that weird balancing act where I’m like hmmm disappear and protect my peace or — be a menace and make yall block me. Anyways here’s a cute photo:

“Only attractive people gain popularity and receive brand deals! But keep making that content fuggos!” 😬 White supremacist beauty standards. Patriarchy. Ableism. Outright misogyny. And a dash of good ole classism. I give up. Y’all can have it. #booksky

Stop telling people that you abandoned your problematic ass family and friends. How very irresponsible of you!

Assuming someone’s gender and sexuality is a form of homophobic and transphobic violence. #lgbtqia

“Deriving pleasure from his disheveled appearance was undoubtedly sick and probably said terrible things about my character.” Not Kimberly Lemmings calling me out. #booksky

With everything going on in the world right now. I needed a dark paranormal romance. These are fun but I don’t want fun right now. I want to cry and scream and rage. I’ll return to this after Poppy War, but I’m not in the mood to enjoy these. I want to feel something. Someone understands me.

Sabaa Tahir hates her readers. “Emifal Firdaant. Emifal Firdaant. Emifal Firdaant.” #booksky

YOU ARE MY TEMPLE YOU ARE MY PRIEST YOU ARE MY PRAYER YOU ARE MY RELEASE OHHH SOMEBODY IS ABOUT TO D1EeeeeeAAAAAHHHHH! #booksky

Chapter 7 of #thepoppywar will live rent free in my head for the foreseeable future!

Dear white readers, #booksky

Whoever lured to that girl needs to get handled #thepoppywar

Are yall using the video app for Bluesky? I’ve been posting to Instagram and TikTok. Let me know if I should move content over. Idk if people are using it!

Something funny happened today. Not funny haha But funny rage #booksky

I screamed out loud and now I’m sobbing. SABAAA TAHIR! Pay for your crimes! #booksky

I am going to start adding they/them text to my face every time I make a video cause I’m not a girl y’all. And there’s like no way for people to know that.

So back in December, I sold my Poppy War trilogy paperbacks to someone here in South Korea. So I messaged her to see if she was done and would be interested in selling them back to me. She is. Lmfao 🤣 Idk I feel like this is ridiculous.

LI XOUYING! YOU ABSOLUTE BADASS! SURVIVORS LIVE IN POWER! (I’m sobbing at work. 😭) www.latimes.com/archives/la-...
