Happy juneteenth!

If you're okay with it could I rant a little about this holiday? If not just delete this.

I live, born and raised, in Galveston. Juneteenth started here, and before it was a national holiday, it was hated by our government here.

City officials would order cops to be EVERYWHERE. It was always a celebration but for years city officials fought it tooth and nail. They would ban any and all alcohol on the beaches despite them being public spaces and those bans were ONLY enforced around June and specifically with the black and POC communities. You'd have people getting arrested for drinking on the beach while a white family had the same alcohol less than 20 feet away.

Galveston has faced massive gentrification over the years, houses are constantly bought and repurposed as 'beach' houses that cost a fortune to rent. Families that have been here for almost 200 years have been financially squeezed out for tourism and juneteenth was the ban of these politicians for years. It was only recently that they started considering to "allow" the celebration because it brought more tourism.

It's frustrating that a lot of local texas politicians who are 'celebrating' it now actively fought against the black community and tried egregiously to erase this holiday from existence. I will never forgive or forget how Galveston city treated its own residence in the very recent past.

I am from Beaumont, which isn't hella far from Galveston, but not much of a tourist spot. (Only people looking to find city mood in small town wardrobe ever go down there. It's hella segregated. The neighboring nearby towns with their klan and their klannish travel to BMT for work etc (I have worked with so many people who had "loved ones" klan affiliated). Galveston was somewhere I went sometimes as a tourist and I'm just now knowing about the politics there. That's so upsetting but not at all surprising.

I made Austin my home about 12-13ish years ago, and even in that time, the Black population has gone down so much I haven't wanted to celebrate at the Juneteen festivities in town in several years.

I remember when I would ask my online friends about Juneteenth, and IF they even knew what it was, they didn't have celebrations that they knew of in their area. I didn't realize that outsiders didn't have any Juneteenth dealings, much less that we had Texas politicians fighting it. When I was young, it was one of my favorites and before it went national, I would take the day off and honor my ancestors.

I've had less Juneteenths off since everybody started tinkering with it and I decided this year instead of calling out when I don't get the request, I would schedule vacation/holiday time and really put my foot down about it.

Not working on a specific day for 10 years or so to wind up seeing WHITE PEOPLE get time off etc??? Nothing has aggravated me more as a Black person from Texas.

I still wonder if Alisha's power would have an effect on a gay man or a straight woman

[blackfemmecharacterdependency]

I would vote on yes. Whenever the Jesus dude bought it and was using it to assault people, that showed that the person doesn't have to be attracted or interested for the power to work on them. Sidenote: Shoutout to Antonia for repeatedly referring to it as a "shit power" every time she spoke about it behind the scenes whenever the show was out.

I finished Misfits and Magic s2 today, and now I desperately want Danielle Radford to join WBN. I love the chemistry the five of them have!

[blackfemmecharacterdependency]

Honestly for AT LEAST one campaign or something. I know that everybody has their own things and whatnot but I need this so much.

[chanelle-lize]

Danielle Radford is breathtakingly beautiful.

The idea of listening to no black music is bizarre to me. Even if it's not rap like no earth wind and fire? No reggae? No moonstomp? No ska? No classic jazz? No R and B? No disco??? No skindred? No jungle? No even like metal bands with a few black members? No gospel? Not even stuff like alors en dance? No blues music? No mo town? No jazz of any kind? No big band? No soul music? Not even a little James Brown?

So....

I'm caught up now on TVL episodes. I caved and watched.

WELL, SAM IS GREAT. He's clearly having a good time.

Jacob looks stunning. Helen of Troy realness.

Lots of music! Tons of songs.

[blackfemmecharacterdependency]

I don't have a good link to them. Something in my system has been blocking my sites and idk how to make it stop. 😭😭😭

[blackfemmecharacterdependency]

There are several things that make me laugh really hard

One of them is whenever Danielle Radford says "Angelerrrr" on Misfits and Magic during the hilarious Tony Danza intro.

Happy Pride Month! Here's a Mirabelle with her aroace flag.

[ID: A half-body digital illustration of Mirabelle from In Stars and Time excitedly smiling while holding an aroace pride flag behind her. Mirabelle is colored in black white and gray, and the flag is in desaturated colors. Mirabelle has dark skin and her hair is in a black afro. She wears a large white bow on a headband, small white earrings, a gray capelet with two circular brooches that teardrops hang from, long white fingerless gloves that end above her elbow, and a poofy white dress with a rope for a belt. In the right corner, in small text is the watermark, "@/ginger-and-rose-art." End ID]

[blackfemmecharacterdependency]

Y'all will never see my Black ass omit storytelling that advances a Black girl. Count on that. I ain't in denial about shit. Infinity Train happened the way it happened and the shit was spectacular. 🤷🏾
