name one native american intellectual off the top of your head, name one native american actor or actress off the top of your head, name one native american senator, one native american news anchor, or an author or a tv personality or a singer or a poet or a comedian, name a single native american teacher you’ve had, can you? probably not 

ok so now think of one native american cartoon character you know of or a sports team relating to native americans whether it’s their actual name or their team logo, or a town you live in or near with a “native” name bet a lot of these things came to you right away i bet you didn’t even have to think 

needing native representation in media, education and government are not decoy issues, the commercialization and appropriation of native cultures are not decoy issues, the lack of native representation is institutional oppression at work

White people specifically need to reblog this, I don’t CARE if it makes you uncomfortable–that’s the point. Listen to Native voices about Native issues PLEASE

EMERGENCY EXIT ROW

I have learned to love like I’m sitting in the emergency exit row (Like I would have preferred not to sit there at all, but the flight was already booked and I have a long-time habit of flirting with danger.)

I’ve read the safety instructions a hundred times and I have definitely located the life vest under my seat which I will inflate in case of a broken heart -- but I must admit, I’ve never been good at putting on my oxygen mask before helping the people around me.

I love like I’m sitting in the emergency exit rox and they ask me if I’m willing and able, and of course I say yes, but the answer is a resounding FUCK NO.

Able implies ability -- and sure, I have the ability to lose sleep over spilled milk, the ability to convince myself the earth’s fiery heat death is just around the corner, and the ability to be more of a disaster than anything they could teach you about in flight school. I don’t have the stomach to save lives or my love life, but I’m willing to try.

So yes, I am willing to stay in my seat on this metal death trap currently barrelling through the sky. Which is to say that I will still show up for dinner, even though seeing you feels so good it scares me, because fuck if caring about someone isn’t the kind of euphoria that sends you soaring right before you plummet violently to earth in screaming color.

My head spins every time I see you, you know. (It could also be the cabin pressure.) There’s a one in eleven-million chance we’re going to die on this plane today. I promise to share my bag of complimentary airline peanuts with you if you promise to keep your seat-belt on.

if love is a science my brain bought a book on chemistry  and gave my heart lessons on how to start fires you are 60% percent water and i am -- salty?  i am sodium  we would make the most beautiful explosions together. i want to let you learn about the moving parts of my heart, the flawed and fragile design  it looks so pretty on my sleeve. my heart is a broken collection of pistons in a glass casing  labelled “please, please, please, please, PLEASE                              handle me with care.”  your hands are the gentlest i’ve  ever held you make me feel so big full to bursting, like a party balloon and when you kiss me it’s like a needle pressed dangerously against my skin i am begging you to make me pop. you make me feel like i can jaywalk into traffic as long as you are holding my hand.  even a broken clock is right twice a day and  around you, it’s 12:00 all the fucking time    i think the universe knew our reaction would be dangerous  we saw every fire truck in town   clamoring to their battle stations last night i was so flustered i called them fire hydrants.  you laughed, and  it felt like music to me. it washed away my shame.

Be like the sun for grace and mercy. Be like the night to cover others’ faults. Be like running water for generosity. Be like death for rage and anger. Be like the Earth for modesty. Appear as you are. Be as you appear

So, as it turns out, Tomi Lahren is little more than a hypocritical, pandering sellout.

Pass this around. Delegitimize this piece of trash. Remove her platform.

Shout out to all the qpoc who have to listen to their white queer friends talk over them like they aren’t queer because they’re a poc, and like white queers don’t have privilege even under trump

[theybby-deactivated20231001]

So many white queers are so fucking racist on anon, lmfao all I said is y'all have white privilege, believe it not, being queer doesn’t cancel out white privilege

[makuansoni-deactivated20170526]

being queer doesn’t cancel out white privilege

[queercapwriting]

LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE FRONT WHO SHOULD BE IN THE FUCKING BACK.

[libertyatheistandy-deactivated2]

Wouldn’t claiming someone has privilege because they’re white be a racist statement itself?
