Not Trans but TransAtlantic. The makings of my gender are scattered across the Atlantic. My womanhood is made of Sea and Blood... This is TransWomanism.
A girl left her edge brush on the sink & the dude took a picture to post to social media thinking it was for her mouth. The fact that folks be so ready to embarrass & air someone out these days. Even if sis was that down bad, why is everything so shame & humiliation oriented?
She survived a brutal accident, but can a young woman with no memory now survive the man pretending to be her husband?

Parents will send the most stupid & ignorant links & you have to pretend to be interested like when you showed them your macaroni paintings. Full circle.
"We are not responsible for our Ancestors" but you spending your Ancestors' money. You enjoying their institutions. You reclining on all their violence.
Can you imagine a Black woman doing this? They are in the comments arguing for her right to privacy & the right to be human. Not after how yall did Serena for YEARS.
Women are complaining about being pretty again. You're not oppressed for being pretty. You're oppressed for being a woman in a society that devalues women. However bad you think you're treated, women defined "ugly" have it 10x worse. On some level you know cause you'd NEVER trade
The owner of this Indian restaurant told this white lady everything on one side was vegan. A min later she was trying to question him down about if something was made with cream. Boo, these the original vegans. They was making vegan dishes while you were eating pig nuts in Europe
Why are the "free thinker" people not in support of Dwayne Wade supporting his daughter in having her own mind & going against the dominant culture? Why is "free thinking" only used to support colonial ideology while falsely equating marginalized people's pushback w/oppression?
The dream is for Black ppl to retain the power to dictate the culture like this in all our art forms. A lot of feelings would be hurt & checks unsigned.
“They abused each other” is usually how people weaponize women’s self defense against them. The idea of a “perfect victim” is used to immobilize women in the face of abuse & then persecute them for making the abuse visible to society.
"Gender critical" is just code for white supremacist enforcers of colonial gender. Yes its white supremacy to say people have to be the gender YOU said & look how YOU think they should based on it...OR ELSE face violent social repercussion. We've actually already done this before
I hate how people are always so ready to embarrass someone intimately. How in the world does that make you feel good? Some folks should just never be let inside of your house. Its actually a very intimate thing to allow someone in your home or access to your private life.
Johnny Depp abused that woman and then ruined her life for indirectly talking about it. All while people cheered him on because they were dazzled by his celebrity & their romance of his persona.
I really wonder what life would be like if dating in your early 20's as a woman wasn't generally about navigating men trying to exploit & crush your mind. What if it could have actually been an exploration of care, pleasure, dialogue,& growth w/out unnecessary cultural suffering?
"No one should have hit you as child" is hard to stomach because it means someone invaded your most vulnerable & tender moments. You struggled through transition in those moments & people hit you instead of meeting your needs. It's a frightening concept.
No but really there is an entire dark web of male podcasts, pick up artists & “men’s rights activists.” They target men with low confidence & promise to build them back up by blaming women.
Unpopular Opinion: Men's refusal to go to therapy shows up in plot holes, bigotry, narratively distracting obsessions, or unresolved narratives in the script.
She really did not earn any of her stripes. And has the nerve to turn her nose up at the girls in the profession for "walking too many shows." It shows that she doesnt/didnt walk enough.
I can't believe we did all this feminism shit for men to start making podcast saying women spoil after age 25 in the year 2022. Man I quit lmao. Poison Ivy really made points. I'm joining an eco terrorist girl gang.
White women are saying Meghan is mocking them for being barren by holding her own pregnant stomach. Y’all are such fucking racist eugenicists lmao. I hope she births a whole fucking tribe of junglebootied royals.
Trans people said they are performing a labor strike because of the CEO publicly supporting trans misogynist material. So many people’s response is “y’all hiring?” Remember that when you have to fight for your own labor rights & workplace conditions.
The ballot measures be like "Do you not want to not allow or disallow this measure that doesnt prevent this very vague non descript protection from being passed?" They are purposefully confusing & require hella prep beforehand.
Its "interesting" that the white art critic (currently under fire for trying to blast Amandla) sees her own success in the NYT's at 24 as an inherent ability and not a feeder pipeline of class, race & profession passed on by her parents and supporting institutions.
I wonder if people would start talking about "the woes of being pretty" differently if they acknowledged that "ugly" is usually defined by what's associated with marginalized people. Things like Blackness, disability & class. You know to avoid "ugliness" like death, so lets stop.
Trees, especially giant & old ones like this, are so divine & sentient beyond our conception of consciousness & life. And we choose to make jackass coffee tables, instead of building relationships w/them.
I’m still lmao at Michael B Jordan saying he’s too immature to date...AT 30 YEARS OLD. What he actually means is he’s unwilling to be reciprocal & emotionally responsible with ppl. He should stay away from all women.
Payless is so petty lmao. They created a fake store called Palessi & sold their shoes on video to “Influencers” for hundreds of dollars. It was an ad stunt to throw shade at ppl who think they’re too good for Payless, but really they just proved how capitalism works LOL!
I want a man to seduce me by making we WANT to sleep with him, not put me off with power plays & mind games. Its sexy for a man to express interest. Its sexy to be given food & wine. Its sexy to be looked at, touched & warmed. If I'm confused & ungrounded, Im not open sexually.
Its rich how other people act like something is wrong with you as a Black woman when you aren't always in love with your natural hair. You can't maim people psychologically & then get upset when they have to travel through the shadowy portions of their healing.
People will call Black kids hair “coarse” when most of the time it’s actually dense & extremely fine. It’s like tiny delicate coiled strands of cashmere.
She lowkey read her Mom. “Who married someone with dark skin in our family? Where they at?” What a sharp girl, she respectfully blazed through all that gaslighting
Breaking News: U.S. health officials plan to stretch out the monkeypox vaccine supply by allowing an injection method that uses one-fifth as much per shot.
Women were historically completely cut off from wealth. In return, they received some paltry romances & minor concessions. Now men want the romances women receive, but women don’t get the access to wealth back in return. Men want everything. They are trying to strip the car.
Bby its a whole lot of people in this world who can't cook. I be putting my plate upside down in the trash & ordering pizza right with they ass. Little kids BE KNOWING.
Also interesting how food is so racialized. There’s this vegan spot in Atlanta called “Slutty Vegan” where Black ppl line up around the block. No one pathologizes this, unlike with fried chicken. We really let white narratives dictate the conversation.
It amazes me how hungry university students are, REGULARLY. We literally need soup kitchens for college students, while industry is making all this damn money from loans, predatory institutions, & unnecessary inflation.
3 white women made false reports to the police about a black man because they didn’t like his community gardening project, reports
@metrotimes
. A judge tossed out the stalking charges they made against him. His lawyers called it a case of "gardening while black."
People always try to reference "the imperfections" of Indigenous societies when you bring up colonization, as if they had to be perfect to be worthy of not being colonized. That is literally an argument of it's racist ideologies.
You're not "free thinker." You're a mark. Colonial ideology branded as "free thinking" just so you dont have to listen to others, means you believe your freedom to talk harmfully of others more important than the effect on their lives. Its very colonial. Very status quo by design
The thing about white/non Black people and Black art is that they never have to perfect their craft to the level the medium requires. Its the "legitimacy" of their bodies people love. But imagine how many would fall back down into obscurity if they had to pass the tribunal first.
Everyday, children get the sweetness knocked out of them by adults & other children who are taking adult instruction. Its actually a network of behavior designed to keep cruelty, distrust & power as aspirations. Colonial values. They replace the loving souls with golems of pain.
The decenter romantic love thing doesn’t really work because as Buddhists will tell you, trying not to think of something is the surest way to think of it. People yell to do it but it’s actually a wholistic process that includes struggling through desire & recognizing it’s beauty
Black men keep saying (intracommunally) "they dont have space" because their identity is based on subjugating others. So the more autonomy women & queer folks achieve, they translate it as "lack of space" or disempowerment. Within the community no one has more space than Blk men.
There were lots of foods I hated as a kid, that I love now. Even as an adult, my palate constantly changes depending on need & taste. Some things are simply too rich or unneeded by children's bodies & its okay.
I'm actually glad that men are making tiktoks of cleaning their houses. Let men make performative displays of domesticity in the hopes of romance. Get in there & vacuum shirtless you little whore.
Its kinda weird that we go to college so early because I would slay undergrad at this age. My brain was not fully developed back then lmao. Let's not even bring up learning to integrate learning disabilities & navigating questionable systems. I was fighting for my life. 😭😂
Men are using AI to ban boobs & NOW they are using it to create the “perfect” boobs. They are so chaotic & controlling. If you ever needed proof that someone hates you...
Why do you think people are always comparing Serena Williams to a white tennis player who lags behind her completely in talent. Why do they make digs at her femininity? Why'd they test Castor Semenya's blood? Based on their racist views of what a "real woman" "should" look like.
If you are an intensely emotional woman its likely that society resents you & calls you ridiculous, but desperately needs you & misses you when you go. So many ppl have trouble appreciating women in the present moment but canonize you when you are dead or gone. The Mom Effect.
I hate any relationship take that doesn't take into account patriarchy & power dynamics. Cause otherwise you are just gaslighting & swindling me, while offering cookie cutter platitudes.
Ladies please dont date a man who complains about buying you or anyone else dinner. He's not even worried about a first impression, imagine building a life with him.
Men don’t deserve polyamory, open relationships, “no titles,” etc because they use fluid & ambiguous spaces as points of entry for violence. PERIOD. Take that fake noise elsewhere.
