I remember being teased relentlessly throughout my childhood and my teenage life where people would say that because of my skin I’ll never be beautiful enough, they would even recommend skin bleaching products. So as a child I quickly realised that as a dark skinned girl I was not considered beautiful enough… At that time I didn’t know that it was the negativity from the people around me that was causing me to hate my skin and myself for that matter. I remember a time during school photos where a girl shouted “she’s too dark! You won’t see anything on her ID but her teeth!”, of course everyone laughed it out… And so did I…. Because I didn’t want to make it seem like I was offended… Their feelings felt more important than mine… After all growing up I was always reminded of how unlikely I was of ever being beautiful or finding someone that found my darkness beautiful….. As a 19 year old today I sit here and say “I never gave in to skin bleaching”, “I was constantly reminded of how ugly I was but that only made me love myself even more….. I began considering myself as someone different, someone beautiful and out of the ordinary.” Your skin no matter how dark it is that when you smile you can only see the glow of your teeth is worthy of love, your skin is that of a goddess and you should never feel anything about your skin but self love. I write this to all of the people that have gone through similar and worse, you don’t need to learn to Love your skin, the love is already there… You just gotta unleash it.

I would like to hear some stories of yours if you’ve ever gone through the same thing…. Message me on Instagram. IG: YoungNubiie

Truth Coming Out of Her Well to Shame Mankind, 1896 by Jean-Léon Gérôme

[seekers-whoarelovers-deactivate]

I’ve been thinking a lot about it and this is literally the best title of anything

[cumaeansibyl]

so I guess it was some ancient Greek who said “truth lives at the bottom of a well” and I don’t know what he meant or why it stuck, but I’ve seen a lot of 19th-century references to it (because people always love showing off how much they know about stuff)

but I like this because imagine how fucking pissed off you would be if you lived at the bottom of a well in the first place, but then you had to climb all the way out of it somehow because humans were such unbelievable assholes that you were forced to yell at them in person

so who else is in the mood to run off to a series of small, interconnected caves with me, and be cave neighbors for the next ten years,

[thewigmonsters-archive]

cons: we wont know about any new memes pros: we make our own cave neighbor memes about the bugs we see doin weird shit and that one cave that leaks when it rains except we can’t find the hole it’s leaking through

[thewigmonsters-archive]

cave memes i’m submitting for your consideration:

*aiming hunting implements at anything that isn’t a bird* this bird is gonna be delicious

personifying rocks, constnatly,

“my digging skills are delightful, which you would know, if you ever bothered to know me the way you know your beetles”

throw the stone, Maurice.

one of our cave neighbors is a geologist. they know the names of all the kinds of rocks. the rest of us mispronounce them constantly on purpose and correct each other’s pronunciation with even more wrong ones.

making up elaborate insults towards bugs, and saying them, to the bugs

the implications of Ji-won’s moss beds (the joke is nobody can ever agree on the implications)

mushrooms in places they dont belong

yelling “hhchruckkkk!” in a high-pitched voice, several times in a row, whenever

“the best tasting dirt comes from Jamal’s cave”

worm disco

feel free to submit your own cave memes
