We Can Love Here.

Stop stealing from poor people.

Robin Hood had the right idea lol, it's unfortunate America feels like an immortality project for the wealth that belongs to racist to bullies. Bullies I'm speaking on carry a flavor of unspoken white terrorism. White terrorism is quiet and calculating, like any psyop, its' neglect actually rips communities apart. Divide to colonize and conquer.

More than anything I believe classism is an art that keeps us divided. Our unquenchable thirst for more keeps us at odds, how can you trust your competition in a bloodthirsty sport? Like two identical shops selling the same things at the same time, capitalism isn't built for everyone to have...there must be have not's.

Why not steal from the rich 1% to give to the needy? How does LA have the most money and most homeless at the same time? It gives yin-yang but still lol, something's off...

People feel too desperate around so much wealth. Thieves are coming up off from their neighbors, rather than unionizing to get paid more...voting for more accessible benefits...investing in community programs they choose to play crab in a barrel. It's like we're desperate to have what we don't, take what belongs to others, when we don't appreciate what we have or even know what we truly want.

While figuring out what you want, may you be protected from people trying to steal what you have.

Earth is the prize.

Humans need Earth, Earth doesn't need humans. We, humans, need each other. Heteronormativity dividing us into male/female, right/left, sub/dom...it's exhausting. I truly believe homosexuality is meant to consider oneness. What's love look like OUTside. What's love look like between strict male/female guidelines? Nature colors outside the lines, why can't humans? If anything nature is, like an elder, more wise than us due to experience. May we value all that earths been through, all earth holds and molds. Earth is a true baddie and more of a prize than any human being has been or could EVER be. Y'all are wilding lol no of us are "the prize", A prize maybe lol, THE prize? Absolutely not.

You're not meant to be liked, you're meant to be loved.

Trying to belong in a society that hates people like you sounds like a marketing scheme. Why struggle for what a sales person is convincing you to buy when you can ignore their pitch?

Too black, too quiet, too loud, too much, too little, too gay, too weak, too strong, too feminine, too masculine, too wealthy, too poor. I'm becoming convinced there's no "enough" in America. Capitalism is breeding us to profit from making more rather than profit from making enough. Too little or enough is not good enough lol while going above and beyond can cause competition. "Who do they think they are?!" Have and have-nots is mandatory for the system. Why struggle to "have" in a society that seemingly hates you? They hate you not what you do. They hate the color and wrinkles of your skin. Mainstream culture normalizes ageism to shame us for existing...for not needing the system to fight age...for being free.

Unsubscribe from that -ism, unsubscribe from hate so you invest more in love.et their judgements fuel your freedom more than fear. You DON'T want to belong in a society that hates you because that'd mean you hate yourself lol. Change is possible, I'm loving for change.

Appreciation Ritual

What if love was an expression of gratitude? An expression that, in the face of mortality, overcomes fear and plunges into trust. Life is humiliating. Beautiful birthing bodies torn apart for the growth of a naked sponge that's been cloned from "best parts". Care, love, starts expressing itself before the womb and never ends.

Humiliation calls for purpose like love calls for safety. Can we be grateful for safe spaces? Can we be grateful for Earth in space as extreme but less tolerable. As we were made to breathe, are we made to love and be loved?

May we congratulate more than humiliate, love more than hate and be grateful for it all.

You'll never slave enough for your enslavers.

As a direct descendant of enslaved people why would you settle for less than justice from the direct descendants of the enslavers?

Believing in yourself, believing that the work you do is enough, is bad for business.

I'll never forget the term drapetomania because it's a great example of industrialization weaponizing independence. Codependence is vital for "America" to work, literally 🥲

Being ADOS, FAB, black, a yn whatever lmao is difficult because you're damned. You're damned to stereotypes, expectations and options that feel chosen for you. Afrikan culture is multiculturalism. Our culture is making a way out of no way, options out of no options. Creating hope from hopelessness and having faith in higher powers has always felt integral to black american culture. I'd like us to have faith in a higher power that sets us free.

Earth doesn't need us, men do. Earth wants us to explore and be free. After years of trial and error evolution I believe sadness is a disservice to our ancestors lol. From knowing what's poisonous to enjoying air conditioning I'm grateful for modern industries that support our modern independence.

May we all (especially the direct descendants of enslaved people) be seen, valued, enough and free.

"red lipped nonsense"

Black Americans, the descendants of enslaved Indigenous and Afrikan people, are constantly disrespected by not only the descendants of enslavers but those too complacent or privileged to care.

Using the language of their ancestors, racists use colonizer-intellect, slurs and "jokes" to degrade indigenous people then complain about social fatigue. Who truly deserves to be fatigued? The modern descendants of slaves literally deserve fatigue after being ya know, enslaved and racially targeted for hundreds of years lol.

Heart = broken! We shall rise...again lol

Ooof, this repotting was funky...trial and maybe error...we'll see 🤞🏾🙂‍↕️💕

No homo...literally.

I thought we were best friends! Alot of the straight men you're defending cheat on their opposite sex partners daily. They seek validation and care outside of their "monogamous" romantic relationship through physical, emotional and mental affection shared with other people.

Straight men know straight women will choose them over their queer friends. They reinforce misogyny and slutshaming with phrases like bros before hoes while engaging in homo eroticism and casual sex with women outside of the primary partner. That's crazy. Shirtless male hoes are players while female hoes, nipples covered, are just hoes. The nipple-math isn't mathing lol. Who is really out in the street barely dressed? Men are literally shirtless with no socks on and 5 girlfriends calling sex workers whores...literal pot calling a kettle black situations.

No homo is homo. I'm tired of straight men's manipulation being defending. They shame gay men for being "weird" when they're the ones alienating us or literally sexually harassing us. Who is scared of who? Straight men do "gay" things, like show genuine care for the same sex, so truly being friends with gay men would be too real. Straight men don't want to be real, they want to get money and have sex...I thought we knew this?! I thought the feminist movement was based on defending femmes?!

Femme people aren't as delusional as you think. Men that openly identify as straight have sexually harassed me more than men that openly identify as gay. Starting from when I was a toddler to 2020, straight men have shown blatant interest/disrespect for my body simultaneously. They assume I'm a whore as if they want me to be one.

A lot of straight men have a lot of sex lol we knew this yet still, unfortunately, they're bae to straight women (and a lot of queer people). People who are attracted to masculinity: please remember who we're dealing with...of course straight men want the gays and girls fighting over them...of course!!!!

Wake up and (stop liking the) smell of the patriarchy?

[inkrips]

Change seats, asana, perspective...love is always present.

Beyond what we make it, love is a call to hope in the impossible. To challenge for entertainment over conquering. Love is lucky and seeks to balance more than conquer. Why ruin a good thing? Why seek to hurt what cares for you and create chaos where serenity heals all your wounds? We hate what we don't understand when we can seek to understand...to love.

When hate is certain, love gets curious. What is love but en energy that creates art, families and maybe even worlds...an energy like any other yet still it feels like bae.

Remember what's possible...remember you can love again.

Love Again mantra is on my YouTube channel @groundsoundz if you like calming tunes, ASMR, yoga, etc!

If voting didn't matter everyone would have had access from the start.

Voting doesn't matter so who cares who votes, right? Meh. Voting was once exclusive to landowning white men and if you think that's a coincidence "they're" winning lol.

Voting matters. Without voting LGBTQIA wouldn't be able to benefit from society in the same way straight people do. Slavery, public lynching, discrimination, and etc would still be normal.

Voting regards evolution. Sure both candidates may be blah, like having fins or legs we're all fated to die sooo who cares right? That's debatable and democracy seems meant to serve as many people as possible at the same time. Leadership matters, voting for leadership matters while trying to manage millions of opinions.

I used to think voting was pointless then I realized, as adults, we create the world we live in. Without droplets the ocean wouldn't exist. Atoms, votes, create a structure like people create a society. Authoritarianism is cool until the author is trying to kill you lol. Vote, write for you while others write from them, together.

Do you mean hopeFUL romantic?

When I hear a "hopeless" romantic lament over love lost I usually feel a glimmer of hope. There's irony in the hopeless romantic because they still hope for finding true love. They hope that one day someone will care for them past pretense into the present, excited for the future. After breakups, abuse, etc. they hope love really wants to love them too.

Love is exciting yet stabilizing. The 'ship wants to try without stressing, to flow and fall knowing love will keep everything afloat. Trust is important to hope. Without trust in the grand scale hope is imbalanced.

I have hope because I have breath. I have a life full of "things will not get better"'s cartwheeling into "things are better than I expected"'s.

Hopeful romantics unite? Maybe :3

From asking me who I think I am to telling me who they think I am, people have compared me to a lot.

From relatives to straight to gay to exes to wives to that one homeless guy to Frederick Douglas to beautiful to ugly to nice to mean to blah blah blah. People have felt inclined to tell me who they think I am...who I remind them of...who I am not.

Comparison has inspired me to break free from convention since childhood. Classism, racism, homophobia, ableism, ageism...comparison divides and degrades us where appreciation connects and affirms us.

Being compared to people has felt excessive, and low-key racist, so a lot of the work I do is rooted in self acceptance and creator collaboration over self denial and creator competition because wtf lol.

We are one picture that deserves a closer look. Being a cellular organism is weird because like cells our existence is a bunch of tiny parts creating one enormous picture. Like any picture, we all deserve another look.

May you meet an art buff willing to truly collaborate, judge you less and value you more. Rather than comparing you to other pieces or creators may they hold you as a remarkable individual, grown from blank space, complete yet worth getting to know. May they see and love you for you...art!
