What she says: I'm fine

What she means: I respect self-labeling but I wish Orange is the New Black would stop avoiding the word bisexual in regards to Piper Chapman's sexuality. She shows capability of loving more than one gender and doesn't seem to be confused at all about her sexuality, yet the show still treats the word bisexual as if it were taboo. The quote “I like hot girls. I like hot guys. I like hot people. What can I say, I’m shallow.” pisses me the fuck off. Of course, when someone feels attraction to multiple genders, bisexual isn't the only thing they can identify as, should they choose a label at all, but labels can be important and bi erasure is a toxic trend in the media. And the show definitely doesn't avoid labels in other cases, so why with bisexuals? I understand exploring the concept of fluid sexuality, but this doesn't seem to fit with Piper, who shows steady attraction to both men and women. Her sexuality is constantly challenged throughout the show, with other characters wondering if she's going to "turn gay" or referring to her as "former lesbian". Despite Piper rolling her eyes at being called a lesbian as well as "straight-girl", she never seems to defend herself and clarify her sexuality instead of letting all these awful tropes be applied to her.

i used to think it was fun and interesting to get into debates about feminism or racism, or in general challenge people’s bigotry and prejudice and call them out. but recently it’s become a burden. it’s a chore now. i no longer want to debate about whether or not i should have basic human rights, this shouldn’t even be a fucking issue anymore. i no longer go into these discussions with an open mind and a light-hearted demeanor, now i’m fucking furious. i should not have to defend my humanity at every single step, repeatedly and constantly. i’m done.

you can’t read a few text posts on tumblr and reblog a couple pictures of black lives matters and think you’re not racist. racism is a deeply engrained part of our culture - sometimes it’s not even conscious. you have to constantly question yourself. it’s pretty hard to unlearn 400+ years of institutional racism and in order for us to properly dismantle systems of injustice, we have to stop pretending we all aren’t part of the problem.

Police in Baltimore are amped and ready to tell you about every detail of damage inflicted upon patrol cars, buildings, exaggerated accounts of assault from ‘mobs’ of ‘threatening’ high schoolers–but can they tell you what Freddie Gray did? Can they explain with the same transparency and vigour what Freddie Gray did to deserve being beaten to the point where his spine was 80% severed from his cervical region? Freddie Gray was carrying a switchblade of legal size, Freddie Gray’s murderers unabashedly failed to provide him proper medical care under their custody, Freddy Gray fell into a coma after an hour of his confrontation with the police. Police officers in Baltimore are ready and prepared to go on CNN and discuss the number of cracks on their windshield but will not and cannot explain to you why Freddie Gray was targeted on April 12th, 2015.

hypothesis: i can open a harry potter book to a random page and harry will do something that makes me love him result: harry was annoyed at ron so he sulked and refused to come out from underneath the invisibility cloak. hermione was annoyed because she looked like she was talking to herself. harry told her not to move her lips so much then. i definitely love harry.
