I See Rains Coming Down

I’ve loved and hated a few.

[babyjoysdiary]

I’m just resisting shame when I should be celebrating

Like my chants are sung by choirs

And community loves me. Like I’m known and well hugged up on rn.

And I feel extremely grateful. Before the event I ran into two Black hotties on my way to get dinner.

Separately !!! Im talking im well loved on. Shit I prayed for

So my former crush telling me he jealous of me, convincing me I’m a monster and pushing me and pushing me then just abandoning me?!

They asked me to work this event and I turned it down knowing they would then offer my ex the money. And then I still ended up doing more work then him 🤧🫩🫪 I’m more deeply disturbed by the fact that I got close to someone so jealous of me and convinced I’m evil

Like I prayed with him. I tried to be good. I tried not being crazy. And I still was. Now you whispering about me in the corner?! I just wanted to get you paid and help out and idk maybe just go back to square one. We can’t be community members? Also nigga I know you don’t read but my name on the flyer 😅😭

I was lowkey hoping we would run into each other tonight and make amends. Not be buddy buddy but at least like “hey life crazy huh? Sorry for the stress. Can we just be chill?”

Whatever

Saw my former crush at the community ceremony tonight. We didn’t talk. I do think he talked shit about me to folks. Like I actively saw him go to someone a the planning team and then point to me. I feel bad for him tho because community knows me and loves me. If you tell them I beat you their first thought is definitely finna be “And what you do?!”

Like I wrote a prayer for tonight. And did more cleaning and care taking then you and you got laid to be here tonight… I did NOT. I know my response to verbal and emotional abuse being physical is not okay. And matters of the heart are complicated. These people know I’m not perfect they also know I’m not evil.

All of his subtweets call me evil. Nigga I’m broken just like you and and and I am very loving. You will not get me canceled.

I can’t believe part of me want to call him. How fucking weird of me.

I came out to be with my people. With all the anxiety and paranoia. I did it. 😭

Most intriguing sentence ever

Oh easy mistake. Yearning actually rises from the floor and longing hangs from the ceiling

I cant believe this tweet is how I find out

[would-you-punt-them]

now all the things you guys have told me about american high schools are starting to make sense

[jeaninelatragedia]

holy shit.

[frustratedasatruar]

You're not really supposed to say it this way, because its considered crass, but here in the US children are culturally and legally considered essentially the property of their parents.

Note that its considered more crass to point this out than it is to treat children as property in the first place.

[virgoboy]

that post thats like "you're not unlovable you've just been spending a lot of time alone in your room" is true for everyone but me. i'm unlovable i've just coincidentally been spending a lot of time alone in my room

[babyjoysdiary]

I get my bestie’s pov but fr fr I can’t stand the idea that someone I love would write about me for profit. Like nigga what?! I crave you daily and see our talks as divine and you’re what? “Hmmm this crazy bitch could be good material.”

Taking care of my friend after surgery has also made me realize I hate caretaking. Or rather I’m jealous. Again.

I want someone to cook and clean for me. Plan ahead and make sure I get what I need. Ugh. No I don’t. I would punish someone for loving and tending to me

Sigh.

Also I need to be massaged. And fucked. Like so bad 🙉😭 jk no one touch me

also fun fact that vietnam war ended in 1975 that was only 44 years ago i don’t care how hard it was for us veterans to kill people. two millions poor people died in that war, thousands of children are still born with tremendous health problems due to the effect of chemical bombings (the orange agent to be specific) i’m tired of hollywood making movies about the vietnam war and focus on how brave white people are for killing n terrorizing us

[befuddledlesbian]

not to mention there are still around 80 million unexploded bombs in Laos alone which is making farmers afraid to work their land, keeping the country as one as the poorest in the world. 50 000 people have been killed by unexploded bombs in Laos since the end of the war, 75% of whom were children

[cultural-antifascism-deactivate]

more bombs were dropped on Vietnam than the entirety of World War 2. it wasn’t even really a war as much as a genocide and planned environmental catastrophe with napalm, bombs, agent orange, etc.
