Nikki Giovanni And James Baldwin

I remember bits and pieces, but not the whole night.

Burning Days, 2022 dir. Emin Alper

are you a real person?

la plus belle des ruses du diable est de vous persuader qu'il n'existe pas

"the devil's finest trick is to persuade you that he does not exist"

so I'm real as I made you belive that I am, nothing more, nothing less.

She’s spot on

god the Uygurhs...if you mentioned the U of them or the prisonment camps you wouldn't only get banned. you would not be able create another account with the same email

i'm like actually legitimately loving that the result of the tiktok ban is decimating decades of propaganda against china in record time. everyone is flocking to the actual chinese-owned version of tiktok called rednote where they are being welcomed so warmly with the silliest jokes like "i'm your assigned chinese spy! i've been waiting for you! welcome!" alskdjgsld. folks are already making attempts to learn some mandarin to better interact with the chinese users. everyone realizing what our own government collects on us is twice as harmful as anything ccp could do with it. everyone waking up to the fact that every fucking facet of the american internet is designed to harvest and sell personal data off of you so what the fuck does it actually matter anyway if one more entity does it. us government managed to speedrun undoing their own fucking brainwashing it's so goddamn funny.

look at my pokie boo acting like the thermostat is a nuclear weapon with all those gloves(it is, to him but still funny as fuck)

when you start reading gender theory you look at everything mundane with different eyes. yesterday I was browsing ao3 for some bed night smut (usual) and came across the tag "Forced Feminization" in a lesbian relationship."feminization for woman.. wow how rare... why not masculanazation(?) huh? " I though to myself before I realized there can't be masculanazation cause being masculine is just to be without the need to change anything, that's why having hair is seen as a act of treason by fellow woman who adhere to societal standards where feminity has been equal to perform for the past thousand of years.

queer summary: old gay man without a purpose sets his eyes out for a seemingly straight young man. the experienced one is desperate for connection to a point he takes them out to a jungle in South Africa in an attempt to do "telepathy" with mysterious weed. the drug freaks the young one since it feels like they are merging together. he leaves the sugar daddy and never comes back. Daniel Craig dies alone on a hotel bed while imagining he's cuddling him.

the ones who are left behind are in debt to ones who left and I'm tired of waiting for a vengeance that will never come. Just let me fade away it wouldn't be right but it would be easier than fighting.

I don't think there's any form of makeup that's subversive, in the current patriarchal society.

I think that until makeup isn't a form of oppression and harm to women, that we just shouldn't use it or support it, as much as possible.

The chemicals in the vast majority of them are harmful, and most companies that produce cosmetics do not list the ingredients in them either.

Until the day women aren't forced or coerced to wear it to be accepted by the majority of society, and in the workplace etc - there's no subversive way to wear it.

I'm not upset with women who use it, but calling any form of it subversive just doesn't seem right. I don't think an industry that profits from the oppression of women should have any support whatsoever. I don't think we should be giving any of our money to things like that until they stop harming women.

I think the only genuine act of subversion in regards to any beauty standards/makeup is to entirely eschew them all. Until they aren't being forced on us, and it's ACTUALLY a choice, not a requirement.
