I got into Grad School!!
SO Iām going to try to revive this blog-style and use this as a way to keep myself accountable!
My Masters program is 100% online, would have been even without coronavirus, so I really want to have somewhere to post updates and struggles but that can be used to keep tabs on me and my journey.
Iām super excited to get started in the next few weeks!
I fucking HATE what we have to do for money. I hate capitalism. I hate that we have built entire systems worshipping numbers that donāt fucking mean anything. I hate living in a world where these figures can be the difference between life and death. I hate that these numerical values are how we measure our worth. People kill for money, they work until they can barely stay standing for it, they debase themselves to the point of dehumanization just to earn a little extra. I have lost a disgusting amount of time, energy, and life to the mandatory pursuit of money in order to survive and exist with dignity. Iāve had enough.
No Excuses
Hey folks, this is not your typical post about incorrect quotes.
I want to address a serious issue today, and most of you probably know whatās been going on in the US.
The killing of George Floyd started another serious and necessary debate on Police brutality in the states. (And I think not just there. Every country is affected in some way or another.)
My heart doesnāt ache, no. My heart is bleeding and crying out of pain about what has been going on for days now. What people have been going through for years and years. This is not the first case of police brutality against POC, nor the second, and it probably isnāt the last one.
It happened so many times already that I canāt count them all. Our world has lost so many beautiful souls to this never-ending issue. Additionally to this, we lost so many brothers and sisters of color who were part of the LGBTQ+ community too. Even though it is pride month, I canāt enjoy and celebrate it as much as I want to.
But now is the time to act. Now more than ever! We all have a voice, and Iām sure as hell using mine. And I want you to do the same.
40 Ways you can help right now shows you different techniques and approaches to support the #blacklivesmatter movement in various forms.
Everyoneās able to do something. Even if you donāt have the money to donate, or youāre not from the US, share articles, draw attention to it in some way. Being silent about this puts you on the side of the offenders.
I understand that I will never understand. However, I stand with all of you!!! Credit goes to @sfbucketlist on instagram for these 40 ways you can help right now.

1. Do not watch as repetition ("again" symbol) 2. Donāt watch a playlist 3. Do not fast forward or skip 4. Donāt skip advertising 5. Donāt pause 6. Look at in at least 480p and half the volume 7. After a round, watch 3 to 5 other videos, search for the video (not through playback history) and watch again 8. Do not clear playback and search history 9. Comment and like the video
The first pride was a riot, more specifically a riot against police violence. Trans women of colour like Marsha P. Johnson paved the way for the celebration of pride today. You cannot celebrate your pride this month, or any month if you arenāt also supporting Black Lives Matter and the riots going on against police violence right now.Ā Us white LGBTQ+ need to stand up for our black siblings and their rights, their struggles. We need to amplify their voices and show any support we can. (Edited to add links and make the image clearer)

What would you think if, when your governor asked the federal government for the disaster assistance that Congress has provided, the President responded, āI would like you to do us a favor.ā Iāll⦠send the disaster relief once you brand my opponent a criminal.
Pamela Karlan, to the House Impeachment Committee.
People who would otherwise survive this pandemic are dying and will die because of Trumpās ego and cruelty.Ā
I am just astonishedĀ that anyone supports this monster.

this was a great read. āLaziness Does Not Existā by Devon Price
This April, millions wonāt be able to afford their bills even if they want to pay them. Like the pandemic, this is the inevitable consequence of a system that wasnāt designed to keep us safe in the first place.

Organize for self-defense!
#RentStrike
Iām joining the rent strike, and so should you! Rent is theft, and landlords are parasites. Check if there is a tenants union in your city or neighborhood. Organize with your neighbors!

enough primaries remain to get him nominated, please if you are in a state then campaign, if not contact people you know that are.
Bernieās campaign suspended direct fundraising activities yesterday. Instead, they are asking supporters to donate toĀ Meals on Wheels, No Kid Hungry, Restaurant Workersā Community Foundation COVID-19 Emergency Relief Fund, One Fair Wage Emergency Fund, and the National Domestic Workers Alliance:
Meals on Wheels delivers prepared food to seniors all across the country. This is especially important in the pandemic, as seniors are at high risk, and limiting their need to go to the grocery store by delivering these meals is a critical service.
No Kid Hungry makes sure that children get the food they need, especially since schools are closed across the country. Their service is especially important as families who lose their jobs need to keep their kids fed.
Restaurant Workersā Community Foundation COVID-19 Emergency Relief Fund is providing direct financial support to restaurant workers who are out of work or have reduced hours because of the pandemic. They are also supporting community organizations of local workers and providing loans to restaurants to re-open when it is safe.
National Domestic Workers Alliance is giving financial support to in-home care workers, nannies, and house cleaners who have to stay home and not work in order to reduce the spread of the virus.
One Fair Wage Emergency Fund gives funds directly to service workers affected by the pandemic, including restaurant, salon, airport, rideshare, and gig economy workers who find themselves out of work or without customers.
These five groups cover a large section of the problems that we are immediately facing as the health crisis creates an economic crisis. While we need to do much, much more as a country, supporting these groups is a good first step to take if youāre able to do so right now.
Living in Missouri, Iām particularly frustrated by the singular and specific lack of leadership form state & local government (I know, I know. I vote, but Iām outnumbered here), and it is strikingly apparent to me that the only clear and decisive leadership weāre seeing on the national stage is here, from Bernie Sanders. Nothing is decided.
Lemme say this louder for the people in the back:
Bernie Sanders is not accepting donations to his campaign for president and is instead asking us to donate to non-profits directly supporting the health and economic crisis caused by COVID-19.
Iām just going to leave this hereā¦
