Hand Study Of My Hand 🖐🏾

I love how he calls cleopatras family Egyptians despite Cleopatra being greek and a colonizer :/

Your knowledge of Egyptian history is astonishing. Only the 26th dynasty of Egypt was black. And they were Nubian invaders/conquerors. They werent native egyptians, egyptians before them saw them as a separate ethnic group than themselves and Nubian dynasty is considered to be an occupation. They were the only non native dynasty to rule up until Cleopatra's family, whom descend from Greek generals of Alexander the Great. And they were the last egyptian pharoahs. So no, Egyptians werent black.

On me and misgendering plaidos - she’s still being a racist and spreading rumors

SO i know i said I’d drop the plaidos situation–but I just looked and saw that plaidos is still saying that i am intentionally misgendering her and claiming that I still am–which i never did. she is also saying i am a terf because I’m still trying to hold her accountable for her racism.

When I first called plaidos out for her racism–i didn’t know her pronouns, so I used they/them pronouns for her. Not just her, but for her friends simply because when I get into an argument with someone and I do not know their pronouns upon meeting them I use they/them. Usually, when I am arguing with a racist–and we are going back in forth on a post, i use they/them if their pronouns aren’t sated in the post.

when i found out that her pronouns were she/her–I used she/her pronouns for her and apologized. And i admitted that even if I didn’t initially know her pronouns then I still should’ve checked her pronouns to make sure I was being respectful. I was in the wrong. Because at the time,  was getting tons of anons and addressing not just plaidos but her racist friends who were harassing me–I got very confused and would sometimes use they/them when i was addressing her and multiple people and realize I was wrong. I apologized and fixed that.

Since then, and even now– I only refer to her using she/her pronouns. However, she is still spreading rumors and making it seem like i am intentionally misgendering her EVEN NOW WHEN I AM NOT. 

Like i apologized for misgendering her and even apologize now and admit it was wrong. But it’s very telling that I am apologizing for that and she won’t even apologize for her racism.

I want to point out again, that this all started simply because I asked her not to be racist. And i found out that she’s accusing me again, of misgendering her NOW when I am not, and also saying that I am sending a hate campaign against her. 

LET ME AGAIN STATE–that the only reason I called out plaidos in the first place was because she was being antiblack and racist–plaidos notoriously speaks over black and brown people, and she equates us talking about racism in harry potter to us hating trans women–if you don’t believe me–please look at my pinned.  or just look at this link.

And this whole thing is problematic in itself

“idc waht your reasoning is” first of all–plaidos is literally a racist and antiblack–this is not be randomly sending a harassment campaign against a trans women, esp when there are other trans woc who are mad at her? This is quite LITERALLY me trying to hold her accountable for her racism. 

And for her to call a black person “woke” or mock a black person for being “woke” unironically is gross. A white person using woke in a way to mock a black person IS racist, no matter how you try and twist it. 

Also-the “sleeping in the same bed with terfs” what? Just because I told you not to be racist, you say im sleeping with tefs.

ANYWAY, this is just another example of how white lgbt+ people and white women will weaponize their identities to literally harass, smear and lie about people of color, especially black women. Let it be known that I agree with everything plaidos said about transmisogyny and speaking up against it, and even calling out transmisgoyny in TME people. I only asked her NOT to speak on racism or bring up racism in these discussions or downplay it, given she can never explain it–and she, a white woman decided to say I hated trans women and was a terf because of it. This is why queer poc literally can NEVER discuss racism in white lgbt+ communities or hold white lgbt+ people accountable because this shit happens. 

so if you can please reblog this to spread the word. 

For some reason, I randomly remembered that time last year when people were putting acrylic nails on the Avengers and I lost my shit.

We can’t forget the person who started it all, and they deserve the best for the wonderful gifts they gave us.

Thank you Nicole. Thank you so much.

anyways, japanese imperialism is not a thing of the past and still exists today. japanese propaganda is in the little things, and to end it you have to recognize them. stop glorifying the rising sun flag. pay attention to how japanese media treats its korean characters as opposed to the white ones. be on your guard when anyone or anything implies that japan is in any way superior to other asian countries. above all, listen to and support any poc who has been affected by japanese imperialism.

reminds me of this post in here that explained the differences of the west and east's idea of revolution and how the usa especially has undermined a lot the ability of their people to unionize and fight oppressive structures through its mainstream media cuz it brainwashes them into putting the individual fight on the pedestal. the superhero's archetype.

Look, the act of self love ain’t never been no easy thing — especially when you’re experiencing copious amounts of scarcity, shame, disenfranchisement, or loss. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be a 10 billion dollar skin-lightening industry in countries where the world’s darkest people reside. Forty-two percent of voting women wouldn’t have voted for Donald Trump (an anti-choice, anti-union, anti-poor, pro-war, sexual harassment enthusiast).

And I, processing yet another anguishing break-up with someone who’s made it overtly and painfully clear that they no longer want anything to do with me, would be focusing more on healing, pursuing my goals, and moving through grief, rather than spending my days staring at his facebook page, miserably pining for his affection and attention, and desperately reaching out to him even when I know better.

That’s not to say that folks who use skin bleaching cream or vote for fascists don’t feel love for themselves. And I’ll put it on all that’s holy and sacred that I love and treasure every ounce and texture of my tender, sensitive, butter-cup of a heart.
