a poem by alok vaid-menon (returnthegayze.tumblr.com) there is a photo on the fridge back home of me at maybe eight or nine wearing a cardigan, a plaid tie, and matching dimples. this is the kind of photo my family has selected for commemoration because it’s a type of nostalgia that reminds...
Much of what we know about ancient Greece and Rome tends to come from films and TV. And, well, much of what we know is plain wrong.
Fashion styles of Le Dynasty Women (Vietnam: 1428 to 1788)
A timeline to illustrate what Le Dynasty Vietnamese women of different societal backgrounds wore in the 16th-18th centuries.
I would very much love to do something similar for the Tang Dynasty and Heian Era (my favorite periods!), but it will have to be some other time in the far future.

My alone feels so good, I’ll only have you if you’re sweeter than my solitude.
Warsan Shire (via absea)
Because when a man tells a Black woman that she looks mixed as a form of endearment, he’s insinuating that her beauty comes from the (allegedly) non-Black part of her. All they’re effectively saying is: You’re too beautiful to just be Black. Oh, but I am. I’m beautiful just like my beautiful Black mother, just like her mother and her mother’s mother. We’re generations of women born right here in the US of A, from North Carolina to Massachusetts by way of the motherland. Brown skin, nappy hair, cornbread and gravy gorgeous. We aren’t beautiful in spite of our Blackness, we are beautiful because of it. So don’t dare try to give the credit to anything else.

1. We are exiles. We share a feeling of disillusionment, isolation, and exile in our contemporary era—not only as citizens, but as painters working amongst the hegemonic onslaught of esoteric, multimedia, and “subversive” art.
2. We are angry. We seek not to be clever. Ideas are cheap....

“You’re a dirty carpet munching cunt that belongs in my kitchen, washing my dishes and cock. Write a poem about that….”

Obviously you are a rotting dick/an ass wipe an open sore existing among the worst tumors that plague humanity you are an apology someone should have made to women centuries ago today you remain a very good reason abortions should be legal and available to every woman who finds herself carrying the figurative fetus of your fetid misogyny get the fuck out of my womb you hater of your own origin you forget you came from some woman’s cunt the pussy you so deride provided path for you to get here spewing such sick soliloquy your existence makes a good argument for capital punishment only I hold myself accountable to a more compassionate code of ethics so I refrain from advocating for the archaic quartering of you I will also resist the urge to imagine you shackled in sequestered servitude kneeling at the altar of some woman’s holy cunt washing her feet with your mouth only I would not wish her the degradation of your tongue on her flesh your feet on her floors you are the thing I will spend my entire life trying to protect my daughter from/the slime of your ignorance the sweat of your hate coward that you are hiding behind the intangible shroud of the virtual your keystrokes are the only ones with any power impotent unimportant little man you splatter the male identity with the putridity you exude rotting apple/gonorrheal wound refusing to heal/you would have us conclude that most people with penises are like you but for the stellar examples of men in my life I would think you the norm your actions would inform the love I cradle for the small boys in my circle earnestly learning how to be better than the monster you are far and away fairytales and fiction pervade what they know of vaginas valuing virginity over the virtue of being fair bravado over advocating for equality you make me wish I had a son to personally prove your antithesis possible Frankenstein you frighten me with your ability to keep breathing your inclination to replicate to recruit to keep pressing the boot of your discrimination upon the necks of generation after generation after generation the only thing that prevents me from raising arms and going guerilla after you with guns is our collective dedication to the eradication of your kind across all the borders of feminism and race and spaces held wire against the throat of equality women resist heart and body cunts and collarbones kitchens and bedrooms we rebuke all you offer as fact the act of tweeting something does not make true you are only a narrow opinion constructed poorly one hundred forty characters/your cavalry is not nearly as committed as mine you and your cronies were contrived to keep the best parts of us broken these poems you and your drones continue to encourage these litanies I continue to compose will stand as evidence your crumbling tyranny time will hold your actions your utterances as shameful as it was with every disease before you the strongest/most admirable parts of being human will keep adapting/over and over history has already shown us what doesn’t kill us/will make our resistance stronger however unpleasant the uphill task of surviving you as pandemic can only make our species more immune
