I wrote this after the Manhattan blackout last saturday.

The lights went off in Manhattan

last night

people trying to get home, so tired

but all the trains were down

the shows all stopped in Manhattan last night

crowds of people moving like water

in darkness all around

and there is nothing i can do

Fadd9

tonight

my friend i've tried so long to bring you light

and powerlessly screamed to the void

an Echo in the dark

and i've done all that

i can do tonight

they say a thousand candles

can be lit from just one

im lighting all i can touch

i love you so much

but it's not really up to me

to try and make you see

all the power you already have

inside

the people sang in manhattan last night

voices ringing over the sirens

and love is taking form

an anchor in the storm

there must be something

i can do tonight

the lights came on in manhattan last night

If we define the ego, the conscious self, as the audience receiving all the input from our senses, we could say that our identity is whatever it is we are experiencing in the present moment. When I eat a cookie, a spotlight is shone on the senses of taste and touch and the focus of my conscious attention is on how magnificent this fucking cookie is. That's me, that's where I'm at! I am the cookie. I am the experience of eating a cookie until I am no longer eating it, and then I go put the kettle on and I become the making of tea. #self #ego #consciousness #identity #philosophy https://www.instagram.com/p/Brk8DJ7F_wy/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=od8fz4snsxpy

I know this is a fun tweet and all that but it absolutely is an instance of striaght privilege. Heterosexual people have up to seven years to explore their sexual and romantic attraction in an environment that is designed for them while many queer youth deligate their time in maneuvering their identity in response to themselves and their environment. It’s one of the reasons why dating as a queer adult is so hard: so many of us are romantically undersocialized when compared to our heterosexual peers, who are not only given social liscence to explore themselves, but who have the additional benefit of being able to see themselves in media.

There will always be exceptions to this, of course, but it’s so sad to see how the effects of childhood homophobia haunt us well into our adult years, to the point where it limits our opportunity to connect with other people around us.

Tumblr banning porn may not sound like a big deal to some of you - but when many of us came to learn about our own queer identities through content like this on tumblr, it does start to feel kind of homophobic. 

Porn GIFs and sexy pics of girls hooking up on this platform definitely helped me normalize my own very gay feelings while I was coming out and, combat some of my own internalized homophobia.

Sure, I get annoyed when another porn blog full of images I DO NOT want to see follows me, but it was worth the compromise of seeing identities like mine sometimes depicted on my dash in ways I found tasteful, exciting, and normalizing.

This. This is what’s getting thrown out with the almighty Tumblr algorithm: expressions of love. Expressions of affection and acceptance and hope. Positive reflections of what two people in love look like, regardless of who they are or who they love. It’s taken years for me to accept who I am, in large part because I went through my childhood not seeing people like me; 19 years I told myself I was different, and for that I was ashamed of myself. Not everyone is fortunate enough to escape to a physical place where they are accepted. But we had this community we built here. Visibility matters. Seeing yourself in the light matters. And now, as a result of years of inaction and ambivalence about REAL issues, we - our community, our expression, our pride - are being pushed back to the shadows.

We are not explicit.

This is literally pissing me off

[tigerleggies-deactivated2019121]

THIS is why I’m upset. Gay does not equal explicit.

in trying to ban nipples tumblr has forced me to see the word “nipples” more times in one evening than I have in my entire 8 years on this website
