i'm old now. i don't wrestle with the christian faith like i once did. i see it like i see cemeteries on a long drive. "oh hey, that's cool. i have a lot in common with you. your faith is very important to you. i respect that. i don't share your fervor. i see you and i respect you from afar. no, i dont feel any need to respond or defend myself to you. it is as dead to me as the concrete crosses on your tombs. if it helps you, i respect that. no, i do not need it to influence me at all."

i keep moving. you want a debate? ok. are you related to me? are you making life and death decisions for me? then no. no i do not owe you that. i do not pretend i can change your mind. i don't want to. i'm not interested in my mind being changed. thank you for understanding. do you need a water? no? then leae leave my property. please leave my inner sanctum. no, you are not welcome here if you want to proselytize. friends? i'm always open to that. but i don't trust you. i can be friends with people without ulterior motives, can you? no? ok, then, move on. thank you.

Hi there,

I’m reaching out with a quiet hope in my heart. These days are heavy, and my family is living through a reality filled with uncertainty—but I’m still here, doing my best to hold on and keep going.

If you have a moment, please check out my pinned post.

A simple share could help it reach someone who might be able to make a difference.

If you’re able to give, even the smallest kindness can bring light into the darkest places.

Your time, your voice, your compassion — it all matters more than you know.

With deep gratitude,

@nadinfamily

remember when there was that post going around challenging terfs to define a chair? i have yet to watch a gender essentialist define a woman without excluding cis black women. and i want yall to watch them do it over and over again until you understand that transphobia is just repackaged white supremacy.

[be-ca-lm]

hey op, did you know that human beings are not analogous to inanimate objects?

[dapperprincess]

There are plenty of people crying that 4B is transphobic, but none have made the very simple word switch to make it trans inclusive:

No sex with impregnators

No giving birth

No dating impregnators

No marriage with impregnators

There! Completely trans inclusive now

a great perspective to have

[zendayaimdb]

lmao.

OK

i cannot emphasize this enough: men are retarded

the depressing audacity of women who never lose hope that their men will spontaneously grow a conscience. unreal. unbelievable. any woman in the west who thinks her man would be any different under the same circumstances is a delusional lunatic btw

[valkyrie-flies-away]

lmao women are banned from school, college, jobs, public parks, walking without a male in public, driving, speaking or singing in public, they have no rights left and Afghan men didn't give a shit

and now they're whining because the Taliban is regulating their beard? pathetic

women: men do not give a shit about us. they only care about oppression if it also affects them.

[sunnysart]

I just want to emphasize, how these are husbands. Brothers. Fathers. Sons. Uncles. Grandfathers.

The men that society claims are "good" and "there to protect you". The men you are taught to love. The men you are told love you.

These men were silent while their wifes, sisters, mothers, daughters, aunts and grandmothers were being stripped of their human rights and silenced.

They sat and waited. They benefitted from it. They were complacent in their oppression.

And now that the smallest parts of THEIR lives (beards and jeans) are being restricted, they start to stirr.

This is not an individual case, THIS IS A WHOLE COUNTRY.

If something like that happened to your country tomorrow, the men in your life would act the same. They would wait how it turned out for them. They would "play the devils advocate" until you're in chains again.

Women always had to fight and force their way into having rights. It's not given to you, it has been painstakingly fought for, FOR YOU. And these rights need to be just as ferociously protected, because men will always want to take them away.

Historically and statistically, the men in your life are more likely to hurt, abuse and murder you than strangers.

The men in your life do not care about you.

It's time to stop caring for them too.

Protect yourself and your future.

[be-ca-lm]

one of my rescue dogs that has a lil pomeranian and chihuahua in him (and german shepherd and chow chow, he's a real mess) makes the most gremlin-like screams when he play fights and it sounds horrendous and the neighbors probably think he's murdering small animals but he's happy as a clam and wagging his tail, wrasling his sister in the dirt
