Lightwalking On Sunshine

A theatre technician, sometimes artist, always explorer finding her way in the world. I’m actively learning to enjoy the taste of my foot as it so often ends up in my mouth and I become all the more flexible because of it. ISTP. Libra. Bi. Welcome to my organized chaos.

polyamory is neither inherently abusive or radical it’s literally just dating multiple people at once. this has pros and cons and risk factors specific to it just like monogamy does. that’s it. not that deep, no need to apply all sorts of symbolism to it

It’s not radical in the sense that “everyone should do this to change the world”. It is radical in that it challenges something so ingrained in society that hardly anyone sees how problematic it is. Monogamy is default. Monogany is glorified. Non-monogamy is vilified and choosing it marks us. In that sense it isn’t “just dating multiple people”. When you date one person you have endless models and support and you can turn to nearly anyone and talk about hardships and ask for advice. A person choosing non-monogamy has a relationship that is automatically viewed as bad. If I go to councelling with one partner, I need to hide the other. Otherwise the other partner’s existence is viewed as a symptom of a bad relationship. When my father heard about my girlfriend, his response was “I hope you get well soon”. He literally sees this as a sickness.

Polyamory isn’t better or worse than monogamy.

But it is more difficult. Not inherently. But because you’re choosing a path less people walk and you’re choosing struggles you hardly see resolved and you need to reimagine your relationship and build it without a model.

Non-monogamy shouldn’t be radical. But when you challenge something so rooted in the way society works and thinks, I think it is.

I’m reblogging this again because it’s so profound

When you gaze deep Into the beautiful Glare For so long It takes time Not to see the world Through the afterimage. Even the darkest clouds Glow golden In the light of the sunset

One day, whether you are 14, 28  or 65 you will stumble upon someone who will start a fire in you that cannot die. However, the saddest, most awful truth you will ever come to find–– is they are not always with whom we spend our lives.

What’s her name?

[pig-demon]

Her name is Jane Elliott. She was a former schoolteacher, now she’s anti-racism activist, feminist and LGBT activist. She’s tiny, mean, and boss as fuck.

She’s known for her “blue eyes-brown eyes experiment” where she divides a group of volunteers from the blues and the browns. The minute the people walk in, the blue-eyes know they’re not welcomed. She makes them wait in a separate room, gives them shitty chairs, bad food, and shows them less respect. And (obviously) it causes all sorts of discomfort and rage, but that’s precisely her point. It doesn’t help that most blue-eyed volunteers happen to be white as well. Sometimes they get the message, sometimes they don’t and leave, sometimes crying or screaming. And Jane Elliott says that’s exactly what minorities want to do everyday of their lives, but they simply cannot do.

Did I mention she’s boss as fuck?

The Trump administration has withdrawn federal protections for transgender students, but their argument for doing so is based on years of right-wing bullshit. 

Conservatives still can’t name a single instance where these protections were abused.

“Why do you take politics so personally.”

What if I told you

that these policies

affect me personally?

[flowisaconstruct-deactivated202]

Sure sign of privilege if you think politics is just a game or a topic of conversation and not life or death.
