Hi, I'm Susan. Friends call me "FOX~", am a natural red head, AP code is ICT thus the moniker 'redfoxinict'. This is my wailing wall. Where I come to be alone inside my pain. Like* Don't like/ matters not to me. I do this for me, not you.

IT'S THE AMERICAN WAY

A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She reduced altitude and spotted a man below. She descended a bit more and shouted: "'Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago but I don't know where I am". The man below replied "You're in a hot air balloon hovering approximately 30 feet above the ground. You're between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude".

"You must be a technician." said the balloonist. "I am" replied the man "how did you know?" "Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you have told me is probably technically correct, but I've no idea what to make of your information and the fact is, I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help at all. If anything, you've delayed my trip with your talk."

The man below responded, "You must be in management". "I am" replied the balloonist, "but how did you know?" "Well," said the man "you don't know where you are or where you're going. You have risen to where you are, due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise, which you've no idea how to keep, and you expect people beneath you to solve your problems. The fact is you are in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but now, somehow, it's my fucking fault!

I can't

help myself, I look at men and think whether or not I would fuck them and my behavior towards them is based on my answer to myself.

dear white followers

poc isn’t an adjective - i’m not a “people of colour blogger”, i’m a blogger of colour

don’t say poc if you mean a specific group of people. black lives matter isn’t about all poc. it’s about black people

you don’t need to tell us about every instance of racism you see. if someone’s said something racist about us & we weren’t there, sure, we probably do want to know. but if it’s along the lines of “can you believe this person was racist”? yeah. we can. we don’t need you to remind us

if you have a friend of colour, please don’t expect them to give you the rundown on every racialised issue you see. i’m black. that doesn’t mean i’m automatically an expert on how the modern beauty industry is influenced by india’s colonial history. i don’t speak for all poc - ask someone who’s affected by it

remember that talking about race is tiring. wanting to be more aware of it is great, but discussing exactly how white supremacy affects our lives is frankly depressing. please respect that we don’t always want to do that

if you ever say you’ve “got an [ethnicity] friend” so you can’t be racist to try and sidestep being genuinely called out for racism, i’m stealing your friend. you’re tokenising & they deserve better

poc aren’t a monolith & individual ethnicities can trivialise the racism they don’t face. just because you’ve heard a brown person say the n word or a black person be anti-asian doesn’t mean it’s suddenly okay

talking about our relationship with whiteness ≠ “making everything about race” & anyone who says that from now on owes me £150

this is okay to reblog even (especially) if you’re white

[jasperstudies]

the point of this post is not to be a performative ally and act as if you as a white person have to endorse it for it to be worth reblogging. i do not need your commentary about how you, someone who will never be affected by racism, think this is important. i know damn well it is! adding things like this:

is incredibly patronising - and this is just a small example of the nonsense i’ve had in tags, responses, and my inbox. if you don’t think a black person telling you something about racialisation is believable or important without your saying so, you are part of the problem, and you need to self-reflect before you start trying to contribute to the conversation. 

reblog this version instead.

[redfoxinict]

Fuck this!! We all get trivialized and beaten down by the old "white" way society, every color, every non machismo male. All of us. And by being a part of the sheep herd and not speaking out, not making your vote count all the way down to local governments, you continue to allow traditional ways to continue. Stop! Be the change you want to see in the world!!!

Out of Texas, finally. #ladytrucker #gettingitdone #highwaytime #movingon (at New Mexico)

Looking beyond the obvious takes thought, some foresight, and a dash of empathy. These are things lacking in a me-me, me first society. So stand there and judge all you want. There's only one judge that keeps my soul in check and mind on enlightenment, and it ain't yours. I'll use my energy to think and walk away from the judges of the world. #ladytrucker #greatbigworld #showerthoughts #lifetruth #gettingitdone (at Blytheville, Arkansas)

I don't even remember where I found this but I know it's 100% accurate about me. Suggestion: treat me right or stay away. Pretty simple truth. #ladytrucker #sexygranny #lifetruth #zodiac #showerthoughts
