An Idealist Masquerading as a Realist

Phoenix, 21, English and French double major with a side of what the fuck am I doing with my life. Sometimes I write things. Queer, Black, femme, intersectional feminist. So if you followed me during one of my fandom splurges, just know that I discuss race, sexuality, and gender as they pertain to me very regularly. And I explore other forms of oppression that I may not be personally affected by, but I deem them to be just as important to learn about. If this bothers you, do not follow me.

You guys, I reblogged this 2 days ago out of desperation. Today I was looking through my old wallet for coins to go to the vending machine because that’s all I can fucking afford. I haven’t touched this thing since July/ August. When I found a disappointing 15 cents in the coin pocket I went to the billfold to see if any coins were in there. That’s when I saw them. 5 crisp bills amounting to $22. I literally screamed and danced around my room out of joy before remembering that I’d reblogged this post.

Tl;dr - This post is fucking magical and actually worked for me.

I’m broke as fuck. Money gods pls send me like 100k.

[muscovado-sugar]

I never reblog these, let’s give it a shot. BIG MONEY, BIG MONEY

[niuniente]

I reblogged this last week and withing an hour I got a client after a month of silence! Literally gave me money to eat for the rest of the month.

[doveclove]

Crazy enough but my mom randomly gave me 200 dollars after I reblogged one of these the other day…

[districtdollface-deactivated201]

Amen

[deenadolly-deactivated20150921]

Reblobbed.

[breelandwalker]

I have a theory that these posts actually gather energy from the wishes of people who reblog them and that’s why they work. Plus, yanno, they get passed around by witches…a lot. :)

[lux-obscura]

Financials are getting a little rocky here (new job was a pay cut and was supposed to be an hours increase but ended up being more of a cut/lateral move) and I’m still trying to figure out how to downgrade my spending (seriously how can I cancel some of my cable services and end up paying MORE than before fucking packages fucking Verizon…) so in the meantime I could really go for a cash infusion until I get myself sorted.

[lux-obscura]

Ok this is such a ridiculous coincidence but I JUST reblogged this this morning and between then and now my tax refund hit my account 3 days early. Draw your own conclusions.

[sweetandsnug-blog]

Hello everyone! 

I have started a business called Sweet & Snug based out of Bellingham, WA offering professional platonic cuddling. Through therapeutic touch and companionship I aim to support clients in alleviating loneliness, stress, anxiety, and depression. You may have seen something similar in Portland, Oregon and in the news called Cuddle Up to Me.

This niche industry is designed to support people in reaching intimacy that may be lacking or missing in their lives. This could be due to a busy schedule that doesn’t afford them time to form the sort of  deep, meaningful relationships they desire and/or due to depression, anxiety, and navigating mental health concerns. People seek me out for a variety of reasons and from many walks of life. I feel that it’s necessary to rethink intimacy as a primarily sexual concept, and  explore the varied ways in which we can care for and uplift one another. Whether you would like to spend time inside napping, playing video games, cooking, reading and just being or would like company to catch a movie, dine out or just get into shenanigans, the experience is about bonding, therapeutic touch, and alleviating stress.

My plan for the future of Sweet & Snug is to have it become stable enough that I am able to start offering a sliding scale fee to better support our most vulnerable communities. Everyone deserves to feel cared for and seen.

I would really appreciate help getting the word out! Please share this post on tumblr and varied social media platforms, tell a friend and loved one, spread the care <3

Happy Blackout Day, y’all! <3

It’s been an awesome couple of weeks figuring out where I want to take myself with work, fine tuning my body butter business, and working on writing and getting published. It would be awesome if folks checked out my new blog Ink and Whisk and twitter where I’ve moved most of my writing around oppression, radical dreaming, healing, and poetry.

[studies-in-ontology]

It’s really fucking with my head to think that for all of the connections I make with people there might always exist this gap between us where we can’t know each other completely. Where knowing people will always feel a little lonely

Coping

In light of the tragedy                The call came as a cursory notification,                              I feel broken, absent spine                absent conviction Your head weighs heavy,                baby coiled locks a reminder                               birth is closest in your world,               death a spectre. Cradled here,                surrounded by dishes                               and the hopeful drift of smoke              the green burns for you, a warning ember at the core                painting evening to night                               light me up, slow this day Maybe if we never sleep,              we can remain here                             in a nest of our own making remembering that we taught ourselves               how to care for one another in another world,                tragedy and joy is consummated                                in car burnings here I hope                the cool comfort of my hands                                is enough.

I hated him most for not having the courage to ruin us grandly. To break all the dishes and burn down the house. Instead he sunk quiet into the arms of a beautiful, weak little bird. Denied me my spilled blood, my great war, everything except his confession.
