Fluffy activists be like "here is a link to something that is wrong", and then don't confront ppl in their lives that do those shitty things.

remember when Al Jazeera was branded by the bush administration as the 'mouthpiece of osama bin laden'? lol

my hair looks like a bird's nest. i brush my hair. my hair still looks like a bird's nest.

so much brilliance can shrivel up and die under condescending prickdom.

Is perfunctory art even art

people who don't know how things work are always at the mercy of the system... and prone to conspiracy theories.

Here's a toast to all the ladies with loser boyfriends who stick it through bc they have more patience than me.

where do i get a sign for my forehead that reads "don't flirt with me unless you're actually going to ask me out". such a waste of time and energy to deal with flakes.

I deserve my company more than someone who flirts with me and doesn't do anything practical about it.

guys: rewarded for being juvenile and irresponsible with mediocre smarts. girls: infantilized and degraded with legislation, sexual expectations, stereotypes despite being mature, responsible and smarter.

A minority's skill set includes the fancy footwork required to knock down a (dominant culture) person's presumptions about you in the first few sentences so that they don't deprive you of opportunities and your livelihood. You need to orient them to the fact that you're human. Privileged folks don't need to learn such neat tricks (sadface).

i'm friends with wiccans because sometimes i need to step away from the abrahamic family melodramas.

someone on okcupid commented that my name sounds like a pokemon. it's like the most thoughtful message i've received in a while. #sadstandards ps it's a mortal kombat reference.

every day my heart isn't dead i have to celebrate a little.

I was intersectional before intersectionality was a thing. #hipsterpout

someone can be kind, but they might not be brave, and might not know bravery is needed of them because they are blind to their own privilege.

he scares me. he scares me not.

Not gonna lie, I make the best eggs.

way too intelligent to be happy.

A million feelings per minute.

if they don't fight to be with you, they're never going to stand up for you or stand with you.

tiger face.

words are tripping over themselves on the way out of my brain

all the flowers in the world couldnt make me feel some nights.

the maniacal.

go away, sweetheart.

I looked up and he was gone.

I'm not 'on facebook'. I'm attempting to document my own existence.

I'm not going to beg anybody to be treated with basic human decency. that is my right. their wrong will be called out as such and not forgiven.

sometimes the sum is greater than its parts. sometimes the sum is equal to its parts. And sometimes the sum negates one of its parts. yes this is a metaphor for relationships.

Fact: I don't want power because I'm not a merciful person. Someone else should handle that. I'm much more of a foot soldier for dirty justice.

old poison.

A girl really shouldn't have to feed herself aphrodisiacs because the standard for lovers is so low.

It's hard to stop myself from criticizing personalities put on a pedestal for their work, when their work is inane, dull, obvious and only fulfills a void. It doesn't embellish or enhance or enrich the whole with original substance. It is just... necessary. timely. of course. a voice. It does no harm, and my priorities are better off bothering about things that are harmful. But still, eyeroll. The tedious and obvious is not the same as substance.

It took a while for me to learn that just because someone I care about wants something from me, it's not my obligation to give it to them.

gems in the mud.

New rules: - don't entertain or welcome into your personal life people who invalidate your experiences - you know more than people who promote themselves, and really need to shrink vast depths of knowledge into bite size chunks for public consumption, or you'll get overwhelmed by your own internal essays. ppl need knowledge, not the obvious conclusions, and definitely not superficial entertainment posing as substance. - haters gonna hate. maintain transparency but explain yourself to no one. let the record stand clear.

we are made of strange fruit.

When do I get to stop playing the cute non-threatening worker bee

I frolick in puddles and make bizarro stuff.

I need rain. I need books. I need love.

One should not have to take a whole day off from work to fight fraudulent bills and extortionist student loan capitalization from all corners of the earth.
