HI HIGH LOONA, 2018

i don't consistently use twitter. but i've lurked and its become a serious issue. i want to tell people and make sure it is clear. when it comes to csam, you do not share it, you report it. do not share it at all, do not engage, you are spreading victims' abuse. REPORT. REPORT. REPORT.

on twitter, there has been a huge surge of accounts sharing CSAM. its in the spam, its in the replies, and people have been needing to lock their replies to stop the influx of these accounts sharing these children being abused.

i don't care who you are. you, no matter what, do not share those photos. you report it straight to the government and let law enforcement handle it.

child safety is first and foremost. do not forget these are living, breathing children being abused and shared openly on twitter. so please, don't make them go through more than they have already.

#tumblr too like a couple years back i had to report so many after it showed up in a tag #i could barely look at it to report it #i cant imagine why anyone would think sharing it further is a good idea #its sus tbh

I am exhausted and frustrated by white people's cries of helplessness and confusion. I am tired of comments insisting nothing can be done, that (white) americans need only to focus on themselves and their mental health, and I am sick of hearing about the discomfort of white people. You can scroll past a picture of a mother holding her child's corpse, because it is only a picture to you, but that mother is alive and that child is alive. You can disconnect after reading the Epstein files (after, of course, making some tasteless gay jokes), but those girls were and are alive. The victims of atrocities are real, they are human and people, and the more we as a society refuse to let ourselves feel guilt, shame, anger, grief, the further we disconnect ourselves from humanity.

I do not want to hear about white people being uncomfortable anymore. I want, I need us to fucking cry.

For nearly five hundred years, my people, Black people, have been abused and tortured and treated like less than animals, and still we cry. We make room for grief, we make space for it because if we do not cry, if we don't moan with the sorrow of it, it will literally kill us. And I'm sure other people of color know this, that bottling it up and ignoring it, is not a solution. You have to feel it. The shame of being associated with such an evil, imperialist empire; the guilt of our relative comfort in america being financed by the extraction of labor in the global south; the horror, the helplessness, the overwhelming grief that comes from seeing countless dead men, women and children, people who look like your family destroyed by the american empire. There's no way around it. The only way out is through, and you're gonna have to break down to build it back up.

People discussing ‘unhinged’ fanfiction always seem to talk about dark!fic or explicit stuff, as opposed to the truly unhinged stuff like the fic author zapping all their favs from a story onto a set, assigning them roles, and forcing them to act out popular movies. Because, let me tell you, I read a fic like that with the original Yugioh cast acting out Disney’s Aladdin approximately fifteen years ago, and it is to this day one of the one of the most unhinged pieces of media I’ve ever consumed.

drug dependence is real, but sometimes people use this to further this idea that it means those drugs are a categorical harm in all contexts. sometimes you are already experiencing the thing that they warn would happen if you take drugs and then stop later. sometimes the worst case scenario is already your life before the drugs, and people will still try to present it like a scary consequence to avoid through abstaining from the medication that would alleviate it.

like I've had chronic insomnia for most of my life. I cannot sleep at night without drugging myself. is this great? no, it sucks. but this was the case before I got access to the drugs, too! and yes I tried everything anyone recommended about sleep, trust me.

people warned me like, "if you take those, you won't be able to sleep without them." ...I literally already could not sleep. I couldn't sleep without them before I had them. I can't sleep without them now. nothing has changed except now I have access to drugs that allow me to sleep.

at a certain point you just need to make peace with the idea that some people need drugs to survive. sorry if it makes you uncomfortable, but that's just how it goes.

#I initially thought this was about currently illegal drugs or nonprescription drugs and I was still like yup #then I realize this is about MEDICATION #either way

100%. I phrased it the way I did (using the word "drugs" instead of "prescription medication") because this applies no matter what the current state of criminalization is of a given substance.

people use drugs to survive. we will continue to do that no matter how stigmatized or criminalized it is, because the other option is not surviving.

I firmly believe that disability justice requires decriminalization of all drugs and complete bodily autonomy over what substances we decide to take or forgo.
