I still think Moana deserved an Oscar for this part

[i-want-cheese]

To me, the moral of Moana is that only women can help other women heal from male violence. 

The movie starts with the idea that the male god who wronged Te Fiti must be the one to heal her. This seems to make a certain sort of intuitive sense in that I think we all believe that if you do something wrong you should try to make it right. But how does he try to right it? Through more violence. Of course that failed. 

It was only when another woman, Moana, saw past the “demon of earth and fire” that the traumatized Te Fiti had become (what a good metaphor for trauma, right?) and met her with love instead of violence that she was able to heal. Note that they do the forehead press before Moana restores the heart, while Te Fiti is still Te Kā. Moana doesn’t wait for her beautiful island goddess to appear in all her green splendor before greeting and treating her as someone deserving of love.

Moana is only able to restore the heart because Te Kā reveals her vulnerability and allows Moana to touch her there. Maui and his male violence could only ever have resulted in more ruin.

[smalltall]

…this is exactly what I was trying to say and you put it beautifully. @i-want-cheese This is why the scene makes me tear up every damn time. Women’s honest, ugly reaction to trauma is almost never even depicted in films, let alone honored the way it is in Moana. Te Fiti doesn’t have to “rise above” being violated before she’s allowed to heal. Moana sees her and says

I know your name They have stolen the heart from inside you But this does not define you

She utterly accepts Te Fiti’s rage, her fear, her lashing out at anyone who comes near the remains of her ravaged body island. Female ugliness isn’t punished, it’s mourned and loved. What an indescribably comforting moment.

[teatoppy]

Welp I’m crying

Let us not forget that the cause of her rage was a narcissistic asshole who would do anything to make himself sound like a hero.

So apparently last year the National Park Service in the US dropped an over 1200 page study of LGBTQ American History as part of their Who We Are program which includes studies on African-American history, Latino history, and Indigenous history. 

Like. This is awesome. But also it feels very surreal that maybe one of the most comprehensive examinations of LGBTQ history in America (it covers sports! art! race! historical sites! health! cities!) was just casually done by the parks service.

A little native girl passed away in her sleep last saturday. (not the saturday that passed) She was always known to have colds and what not, including asthma. She was also a little chubby. 

Her mother took her the hospital (the one my dad is at and had a hard time convincing the nurses/docs that he needed more care). The mother was implying she had a lung infection, telling the nurses…

Let me talk about this town. It’s a racial divide even though native people also live here. White french people, native people (who come from the reserve and those that live in town), and the few black and asian people that live here. The white people don’t treat natives kindly whatsoever. They think it’s normal to be that way…

Anyways, they told the little girl and mother to go home and she died in her sleep… I’m so heart broken. This french man walked up to a random native guy and asked about the little girl that had passed. He told the native guy “ya, I saw her with her mom that night in the emergency. The nurses talked in french amongst themselves. The one nurse said maybe we should do some tests and the other nurse said she was just fat” that was referring to the little girl.

White people…. Your racism is killing us. White nurses and doctors… You are killing us. You made an oath on native lands, yet you lack empathy.

if you get a message from me asking for bitcoin it’s fake because i have no idea how bitcoin works and i will only ask you for cold hard cash

[schoolbus-soul]

Saaame

[iron-thorn-deactivated20180409]

This blog did not and will not send requests for bitcoin donations.

There seems to be a virus or some sort of malware going around causing blogs to “send out” chat messages to blogs that they follow asking for help with the purchase of certain items through donations of seemingly small amounts using bitcoin and adds a link to the message.

The message goes as following (at least the first message I got went like this): “Hi there buddy. I need help, I’m trying to buy a laptop and I can’t afford it. I’m about 0.36$ short, and I’d really appreciate if you could help me and transfer some money to me via bitcoin using this *link*.”

The small details in the message seems to have a few variations with the greeting, amount and purchased item showing up in different variations from formal to friendly, from 0.016 to 2$ and from a phone case to a laptop among others.

The blogs that are affected send out the messages to blogs that they follow for a long time mostly, so you are most likely to receive the message from a long time, active follower whose name you might recognize or a mutual etc. The blogs that are affected are not spam bots but actual active followers who follow the recipient for months or years and most likely the blogger who “sent” the message is unaware of the message being sent.

DO NOT OPEN THE LINK.

Opening up the link will cause the virus to spread even more and infect your computer/mobile with any sort of malware.

If you have received a message of that sort from this blog please know that it was not sent by me or within my control and ignore/delete the message without clicking the link.

TREASON’S GREETINGS

[justsomeantifas]

I make these posts every month, until I pay off my debt, this one is for December 2017. If you’d like to see my old posts you can look: here

Basically I had to withdraw from school because my grandparents died while I couldn’t afford my meds to treat my mental illness, which at the time was only diagnosed as depression, I know now I’m schizophrenic, and have BPD, which were impacting my ability to continue my education without me knowing what they were. I was also suffering from a physical illness that nearly killed me.

I’m now medicated and desperately want to go back to school, however I owe my university $5,010.65, and I can’t go back until I pay that off as my transcripts are frozen. Which is to say, I owe the school directly, this is not a loan to the federal government or a private bank.

My goal is to raise $1028 a month if it’s possible, didn’t make my goal for october, so because of that I’ll maybe be done with my debt april 2018, however I’m willing to wait as long as it takes tbh. So far I’ve went from nearly 14k in debt, to 5k in debt so yall have done quite a lot already to help me.

I did apply for FAFSA for the 2018-2019 school year, and the sooner I get this paid the sooner I can unfreeze my transcripts sign up for classes and apply for this scholarship my university offers under TRIO, which I will get if I apply early enough. So if I make these goals I can go back to school come September 2018 !!! I will have all my classes paid for, and I will have a place to live.

If you think this is a worthy goal my little brother has set up a youcaring and paypal as I’m on SSI so I can’t touch the money without being taken off, so he’s taken it upon himself to help me pay off my debt.

you can donate to youcaring or you can donate to the paypal: here and the paypal email is: [email protected]

Thanks for tolerating this on your dashes, like and reblog if you want to, and maybe consider donating if you want to/are able to. don’t feel bad if you can’t donate or reblog. Every dollar helps, everything yall do helps.

only got about 5 months of this left

Currently I’m down to needing $873.02 out of the $1028 for this month.

[justsomeantifas]

Due to all the anon harassment I’ve received I feel like I need to further explain myself, the reason I’m pushing so hard for this is because I live in an  abusive household. I’ve been told several times by my parents to kill myself, my dad has told me I deserved to get raped, they’ve physically assaulted me and had me arrested multiple times for things I never did and so on.

I’m legally recognized as disabled and they frequently threaten me by saying they’ll call the police and tell them I’m suicidal which is only further validated by my status as disabled.

The only long term solution I can see out of this is paying off this debt directly owed to my university so I can unfreeze my transcripts. This is not a loan, this isnt something owed to a bank or the government. This is the university holding my transcripts hostage which prevent me from being able to attend any university whatsoever because in order to get fafsa grants and such you need to send ALL transcripts to said university.

Paying off this debt is a long term solution because it allows me the ability to leave my parent’s home and live in Oregon with a friend of mine, finish my degree and finally get a job I can actually handle with my disability. I have a lot of friends in the field of the degree I’m working on who say they will help me get a job once I graduate which would finally allow me to get off disability and actually do something within my abilities.

So no, this is not just me trying to pay off student loans, this is me trying to make a life for myself. One where I will have money to help myself and people like me some day.

With the amount of SSI disability money I get I can barely survive on these funds, it is impossible for me to pay off this debt due to the constant interest being added to it paired with me needing to use these funds to survive on. Nearly everything I make is taken from me by my parents and the funds that aren’t taken from me I use almost entirely for food. The small excess amount is used on things like toothpaste and shampoo.

I am frequently threatened with being kicked out which would make me homeless without internet to attempt to go back to school. I’ve applied for public housing here but they’ve said it would take years before a spot opens up for me. I quite literally have to wait for multiple people to die in order to get access to public housing offered to people like me who are legally declared disabled by the government.

If my parents do kick me out, again, as they have done it before, I will be homeless for years without ever getting housing I can afford on disability. I do not know anyone in this state so there would be no option of staying with friends or relatives, my relatives have for the most part all died.

I really didn’t want to talk about this here but people will not stop harassing me. so here you go. This is the condensed reasoning of why I think it’s important to pay off this debt.

sorry this is so long it’s just I’m being endlessly harassed for reasons why i want/need this money. I do tag this “long post” if you wish to block it using xkit or whatever else. 

thank you all so much for your help and support. If you wanna help me/can spare it I’m down to needing: $702.04 for this month

[justsomeantifas]

Down to $393.58 thank you!

[justsomeantifas]

Down to $264.04!! nearly done for the month!
