Also we're the only country to have used these weapons on such a scale that people in Japan are still feeling the impact 80 years later...

On Friday, I got my locs washed and took myself to dinner as a mini-date.
On Saturday, I helped out at the Meadowbridge Community Market and kept an eye out for solid water scumbags.
Today, I tried out two different tofu recipes and played Kingdom Hearts 2.
Tiny sprinkles of glimmer and purpose.

Quite frequently these days I feel like one of those violin guys playing music in the movie Titanic as the ship sank 🎻

My first job was as a library aide in high school, putting books back on shelves, organizing and cleaning mess left by patrons.
In my current job, I get to build and manage a digital library for hundreds of employees.

I wish chaps were more mainstream and available in clothing stores. Sometimes, the 🍑 just needs to breathe when the rest of me is cold. 🤷🏾‍♀️

It's so disappointing when the bar is on the ground and some people are determined to dig under it, yet act surprised by the consequences.

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”.

This is a manifesto against disability.

This is the language of eugenics.

I know a lot of us have doubts about whether we could organize a potluck or book club, nevermind a revolution.

So if you need to start with potlucks and book clubs, try that for starters.

Today, I said, "In my professional opinion," at work and felt like I actually meant it. Did I automatically level up my adulting skill on my birthday, or was it some kind of patch update that was installed overnight? 🤔

Folks have asked what I'm doing for my birthday, and honestly, tomorrow, I plan to be as lazy as I was when I first came into this world - adorable, wrapped in blankets, and addicted to naps. 🤷🏾‍♀️😆

There Is No Hierarchy of Oppressions

"I was going to die, sooner or later, whether or not I had even spoken myself. My silences had not protected me. Your silences will not protect you.... What are the words you do not yet have? What are the tyrannies you swallow day by day and attempt to make your own, until you will sicken and die of them, still in silence? We have been socialized to respect fear more than our own need for language." I began to ask each time: "What's the worst that could happen to me if I tell this truth?" Unlike women in other countries, our breaking silence is unlikely to have us jailed, "disappeared" or run off the road at night. Our speaking out will irritate some people, get us called bitchy or hypersensitive and disrupt some dinner parties. And then our speaking out will permit other women to speak, until laws are changed and lives are saved and the world is altered forever. Next time, ask: What's the worst that will happen? Then push yourself a little further than you dare. Once you start to speak, people will yell at you. They will interrupt you, put you down and suggest it's personal. And the world won't end. And the speaking will get easier and easier. And you will find you have fallen in love with your own vision, which you may never have realized you had. And you will lose some friends and lovers, and realize you don't miss them. And new ones will find you and cherish you. And you will still flirt and paint your nails, dress up and party, because, as I think Emma Goldman said, "If I can't dance, I don't want to be part of your revolution." And at last you'll know with surpassing certainty that only one thing is more frightening than speaking your truth. And that is not speaking." Your Silence Will Not Protect You "For the master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house. They may allow us to temporarily beat him at his own game, but they will never enable us to bring about genuine change. Racism and homophobia are real conditions of all our lives in this place and time. I urge each one of us here to reach down into that deep place of knowledge inside herself and touch that terror and loathing of any difference that lives here. See whose face it wears. Then the personal as the political can begin to illuminate all our choices." The Master’s Tools Will Never Dismantle the Master’s House "Revolution is not a one-time event. It is becoming always vigilant for the smallest opportunity to make a genuine change in established, outgrown responses; for instance, it is learning to address each other’s difference with respect." Sister Outsider: Essays and Speeches "Without community there is no liberation, only the most vulnerable and temporary armistice between an individual and her oppression. But community must not mean a shedding of our differences, nor the pathetic pretense that these differences do not exist." The Master’s Tools Will Never Dismantle the Master’s House "Change means growth, and growth can be painful. But we sharpen self-definition by exposing the self in work and struggle together with those whom we define as different from ourselves, although sharing the same goals. For Black and white, old and young, lesbian and heterosexual women alike, this can mean new paths to our survival." Age, Race, Class, and Sex

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

Fun Fact: When threatened the hognose snake will writhe in pain and turn over onto its back sticking its tongue out. If it's turned back onto its stomach it will flip back over insisting its really dead! They even emit a smelly odor really selling the whole corpse thing 🐍☠️🤪

Portrait illustration of a woman underwater with fishies. She's looking at the viewer. Her hair is made of seaweeds. She's wearing a white tanktop. There are multiple types of angelfish and other saltwater fish intermixed with the seaweed. Most of the fish are golden except for one fish in the middle, which is black and white striped.

I enjoy the work that I do, and my boss is amazing, but I'm getting overwhelmed by the number of projects (and therefore people) I'm juggling. I took the day off tomorrow so I can make the trip to Durham at my leisure, but I'm already feeling stressed about the lost time. Make it stop pls. 😩
