“I Choose To Love You In Silence Because In Silence I Find No Rejection, And In Silence No One Owns

"From the moment I met you, your personality had the most extraordinary influence over me. I quite admit that I adored you madly, extravagantly, absurdly."

— Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

“I care. I always care. That is my problem.”

— Unknown

i wonder if i ever (really) made you happy, or if i was just convenient—just there. i wonder if i was the anchor you needed until it became too much, until the weight was unwanted, and you remembered how to live without me.

JK Rowling will die alone in that castle of hers, surrounded by no one. sure, she'll get a few days of attention and Harry Potter will be popular for a bit, but by the end of the month everyone will have moved on. she won't be remembered as a visionary who wrote a popular book series 20 years ago, she'll be remembered as a bigot who put down trans women and other cis women for the sake of some "agenda". She isn't a feminist. She's a bigot grafting the skin of an actually helpful political movement onto herself to pretend she cares about women.

Trans people, keep going. We'll outlive her. this law will get overturned. we have to keep moving forward

i know ateez said gotta work but i just don’t think i should have to :(

A great read on the hotels where Oscar Wilde stayed and inspired others to stay around the globe to this day.

[ID: Three images of the Sigmund Freud statue at Clark University with queer and immigrant activist information plastered all over it. A trans and queer flag are draped over its shoulders, with a list of violent prejudiced hate crimes extending from its book to the floor. On its chest, various news articles describing forced deportations are taped onto it, with the words “Am I Next?” painted atop them in red. Below its feet, a poster with the phrase “How many lives will HATE kill” is positioned. Next to it is a portrait of a trans person with top surgery scars, and various articles taped beneath them. End ID.]

today, this is how clark students decorated the statue in the center of campus. if this message isn’t heard, what will it take for them to listen?

Shout out to anyone involved in putting this together! A strong message that sadly becomes more and more relevant every day.
