When I was young, I was afraid of the dark. When I got older, I learned that darkness is a place, and it’s full of monsters.

It's weird that we're taught how to write essays on books in school, but then after school, it's considered weird and a waste of time by most people to spend time analyzing and writing about the books you've read.

Teach me how to gracefully let go of things not meant for me.

when i was in elementary school, i thought that the reason we were supposed to capitalize the first letter of people's names was as a sign of respect, so i always refused to capitalize the name of my fourth grade teacher or george bush, because i did not respect them

Burnout is honestly such a mild word for what people use it to mean. I'm not experiencing "burnout", which sounds so casual and routine that some face masks and a little rest is going to fix it.

My body and mind and even nervous system are stretched to the point that it's going to take a lot more than just a "break" or a few self care tips to recover, and even then, my recovery is just so that I can reenter the spaces that contributed to me being this way in the first place. I'm a little bit more than just burnt out by this.

Workplaces and educational institutions aggressively overwork us, expose us to all kinds of discrimination, which they overlook and gaslight us out of acknowledging, and then constantly ask us to ignore our mental, emotional, and physical needs so that we don't inconvenience them.

We're not burnt out. We're borderline traumatized. Burnout is always talked about like something transient and mild that a little rest and relaxation will fix.

But we're exhausted. We need deep rest and healing. We need new systems. We need new ways of being. The language around burnout just seems like a way of upholding these current violent systems and downplaying their impacts.

This is the why of riots and looting. THIS IS WHY.

We – me, white people – need to fix the broken contract and stop whining.

This woman’s name is Kimberly Jones. Here is the video in full and her words prior to the above gifs are just as incredible and raw and true and moving as the ones featured. She also co-authored a YA book called I’m Not Dying with You Tonight - go buy a copy if you want to support her.

Her book is great. I recommend it.

I’ve finally started a painting of Nessian!

I know Cassian has officially been described with straight hair (I’m not crying, you’re crying!), but I can’t un-imagine him with some kinda texture at this point… .

Tools: Photoshop, Cintique13HD

I'm not even really into Nessian anymore, but these two are just so hot together.
