Tag yourself as this list of “bad art” features, according to a twitter fascist

[dragonheart2497]

“Never Forget” until the new target is those that they disagree with.

Edit: please watch this video essay by Jacob Geller. It speaks on really important points as to how “bad art” is a weapon of fascism and how it reflects the Degenerate Art Exhibition(s)

"Racialised" is much better than PoC but I've been leaning a lot on the concept of racial markedness. Because that allows us to make statements like "the name Jamal is racially marked in USA". Rather than saying something like "Jamal is a PoC name", a nonsense statement, saying it's racially marked in USA allows us to contrast with societies like Albania or the Arab countries where the name Jamal is ordinary, thus unmarked.

[strawhatsufi]

It's a concept I've kind of imported from linguistic analysis; saying a speech pattern is more or less marked does not really allow us to avoid the subject of who's doing the marking. A statement like "womens' speech is more marked in Lakota" necessitates that we understand that it's the Lakota who are marking womens' speech. A foreigner can't tell the difference and probably doesn't understand why it would thus be weird to see a man using speech patterns associated with women, in the same way an Albanian wouldn't understand why USA people would think Jamal is a Black name.

[strawhatsufi]

You! You get it. In my view, if someone is saying "racialised" or "racially marked" without acknowledgement of context, they are doing it in a way that is gramatically incorrect.

My existence is scarcely more than a shrine to those whom I hold dear.

Each day I live is an act of worship to everyone and everything that I love.

hi my name is Melissa and I'm going threw alot at the moment everything seems to be spirling sbc don't know what's lying ahead or what to do but I need to lift this heavy dark cloud off of us to be able to prosper can u tell me what to do to take all negative and reverse it to who ever sent it to us please

Heya Melissa.

I won't lie to you. I'm not sure I have an answer. At least not one that will solve every problem. I can't do that, but I wish I could.

I don't want to sound cheesy, but trust me when I say. The rain isn't permanent.

And although I wish I could.

You deserve the sunlight and the blue sky. You might want to fight the cloud. I did that. And you might want to ignore it. But you aren't, you asked for help with it, and that? That is so brave.

I don't have a magic cure, but I can tell you that those who wronged you can be used. You can think about them as a type of free entertainment. Pity those who are cruel because they have boring enough lives that causing you pain is something they think might make them happy.

I'm furious that they have made you feel like the cloud might never leave. It does. It leaves.

I don't know what else to say, please feel free to dm me. It's completely up to you

bruce finding out that jason is still a crybaby 🥹 jason act tough but if you push him a bit more in a personal arguments he'd start spilling fat tears down his cheeks and now you have an armful of sad boy in your arms. bruce forgot this fact every single time they fight.

happy father's day to bruce who needs to navigate through the many many emotions of his kids 😭 this is what you get for adopting a gaggle of children

[rabbitkinglune777]

i joke Abt the reblog pass but y'all genuinely gotta stop being scared to engage with black art made by black people and that includes the usage of the word "nigga"

[shnowyfox]

it would be so awesome

it would be so cool

[shnowyfox]

ig since this is getting some amount of attention i'll also use this post to educate about the problem to the best of my ability (if anyone wants to chip in about it be my guest im certainly not the most qualified). and yes i get yall are upset about the porn bots but this isn't about bots this is about our sisters being harassed and threatened and having their accounts wrongly terminated. 2 years ago The CEO of Tumblr continuously terminated a trans woman and her alts and then continued to harass her on Twitter, threatening to call the cops if she continued to dispute the wrongful terminations of her blogs. Threatened to call A Person With A Gun to her home over an "explode him with hammers" type post. Trans women have been a continuous target for unjust termination by Tumblr's moderation staff regardless of their blog's content for years, and have failed to step in against users who harass trans women for a long ass time.

funnily enough kym has like the most complete and comprehensible coverage of the ceo's little stunt that i've found so far. link to their article

An animated like button is not enough to excuse the mountains of bullshit they put trans women through on this site.

Nigerian Pride 🏳️‍🌈🇳🇬

I meant to have this out yesterday. Happy belated pride. :)

[sunflowersosa]

I'm glad you all like the Nigeria Pride post!

Originally, I went in worried the opposite would happen. Growing up, I've been taught that Nigeria, the country, is homophobic. (I was born in America.) But over time, I learned that there's tons of other queer Nigerians; some are out, and some are in the closet 😭.

I'm also not used to this much attention, lol

Thank you all!

Low key

Nerodivergent friendships are the best

I said, "Remember that one time?" To my best friend who's autistic. And he burst out laughing like "Yes! That time! That time was hilarious. Classic. No really" he laughed for a solid 5 minutes while the rest of our friend group stared at him laughing like a madman and me laughing like a snake with m "'ss-sss ssss" like dude what is that? A snake us lose!

No it's my fucking laugh. I love myself just a little too much for my liking
