Yes, ALL Men

      Did the title trigger you? If so, buckle up buttercup, because it's not going to get better for you here.  If you didn't get triggered...enjoy the ride.   LET'S GOOOOOOO     Before you start screaming "NOT all men" or "I don't know any men that harm women"... shut up and stop the utter lying and gaslighting.  regarding assaults on women and those around you.  If you can HONESTLY say that no man that you know has caused any harm to a woman...it's YOU.  If you are simply saying this...you've watched your friends harm women.  You've sat back and listened to the tales of your friends harming women.   Or....just maybe...you REFUSE to comprehend what harm consists of.      Have you ever PRESSURED a woman into intercourse? Have you ever taken and/or shared an intimate picture of a woman without her consent? Have you ever used alcohol or illicit substances in order to become "intimate" with a woman? Have ...

GOP Lies Lead to Lost Lives

      Within HOURS of the Uvalde, Texas school shooting, a bevy of disinformation spread faster than a mid-summer forest fire.  Fully grown POLITICIANS began passing off "details" of the shooter from 4Chan as a measure of distraction.  The narrative that was set forth was that the shooter was an illegal immigrant that also happened to be from the trans community.  A random photo from Reddit was attached to the blatant LIE.  This IMMEDIATELY was dispelled by the person whose photo was falsely utilized, but the damage was already done.      The GOP extremists and their sycophants were NOT relinquishing this narrative due to it suiting their own as well as leading them a comfort within their bigotry and transphobia.  Within hours attacks on the trans community began to increase.  People NOT living in Texas and having NO connection to the city of Uvalde or the horrifying incident were being subjected to the violence they fear daily...

Trade Thoughts & Prayers for Protective ACTION

      Nothing brings our faux Christians faster than a tragedy.  Within 10 of one another, there have been TWO fatal mass shootings within the US and the [overwhelming] response is thoughts and prayers.  It always baffles me how people think saying this brings any comfort or fixes the underlying issue that is transforming public spaces into shooting ranges.  None of them actually pray, they merely follow the shallow sentiment with a barrage of excuses in favor of forgoing comprehensive gun reform.      It is far more important that they continue to "protect the 2nd amendment" and politicians' ability to profit for the National Rifle Association (NRA).  Within days of a Texas elementary school transforming into a horrifically bloody scene, top politicians of the state will be speaking at an NRA conference.  The 2nd amendment affords for the right to a REGULATED MILITIA, not an abundance of trigger happy, murder fantasy riddled indivi...

Illogical & Hypocrical GOP Solutions (School Shooting Edition)

      The party that works overtime attempting to convince the rest of us that they desire "small government" as they invoke government overreach, is at it again.  In lieu of the latest school shooting, the same, "don't teach my children anything", "they aren't your kids" crowd is calling for teachers to be armed.  Go ahead...take a moment, facepalm it up.  Don't worry, you are awake...this is still earth.       The same group of people that are afraid of Critical Race Theory (CRT), inclusive studies, trans children being protected, and teachers being paid properly are now wanting TEACHERS to come to school ARMED.  Before you jump onto this dumpster fire of an idea, consider the following: Who will be supplying the firearms?  Where will this new budget derive from, when basic supplies don't fit into current budgets for teachers? Who is going to verify the licenses, certifications, and permits for the teachers? How are the guns ...

Are You prolife or Pro In Vitro?

      Within TEN days, the US was forced to endure TWO mass shootings.  First was a racist, hate-filled, streamed massacre of Black people...then came the insane murder of children and teachers.  What do they both have in common, other than guns? Pro-Lifers are expertly silent on the matter.  The few who speak out, in opposition to those of us dispersing facts, are showing no concern for the lives lost.  Especially those lives that belonged to the youngest of our population.  I thought they were fighting for babies and children to have life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?!       If you have not picked up on their true intent....they do NOT care one iota about babies or children or any life that is NOT their own or profitable to them.  They care about advancing the ladder of capitalism.  They care about embryos in vitro and nothing more.  They love their guns, lobbyists, and padded contracts more than any ...

Black Women Are NOT Your Cosplay

Image
      It NEVER ceases to amaze me that Black women are consistently denoted as "ghetto" until components of us are colonized into the category of "trendy".  It also does not surprise me, nor does it not go unnoticed, that men will seek out and become romantically involved with the cosplayers.  They (especially Black men) will engage in the imposters, praising their attitudes, styles, etc. while degrading the originators.  It is utterly sad the number of men that are willing to entertain walking minstrel shows while condemning the same women that began his [very] existence.      We [Black women] are deemed: too masculine, "ghetto", nonsubmissive, and "difficult".  Why? Making it simple.  Due to the generations of us having to care for a multitude of communities and men [within proximity], void of assistance or a break.  It is a tale as old as time...Black women put in the physical and emotional labor for everyone, just to b...

Tone-Deaf Handmaids

       Each time [in recent years] that white women feel as if they are under attack from the patriarchy, they invoke the novel 'The Handmaid's Tale."   They (for the most part) do this INSTEAD of listening to Black and Indigenous women who have LIVED the events depicted in the novel and [subsequent] tv series.  Said pale Patties tend to reference the diversity of cast within the series as justification for attempting to force [by guilt] non-white women into joining their plight.  This collection of cauliflower Cathies fails to note the fervently white-washed novel that STOLE from the medical HISTORY of Black and Indigenous women within the United States.        Collectively, we have tried to inform white women that the laws that they champion THEIR men to invoke will soon result in a disturbance in their own lives.  We have explained extensively that we have been traumatized, sterilized, revoked of our bodily autonom...

White Denial

      Over this past weekend, the United States was ONCE AGAIN reminded just how tiny Black lives are regarded and matter.  INTENTIONALLY, Black lives were hunted and sent to the ancestors for merely EXISTING.  What was the response from far too many non-black citizens? Laughter...gaslighting...false equivalencies...silence...deflection.  Such reactions come on the DIRECT heels of said individuals claiming to be "traumatized" via the "Oscar slap heard 'round the globe", white women trying to guilt Black women into fighting for their bodily autonomy, and a rise in faux allyship.        Amazing that they are offered the privilege to be sooooooo affected by a slap between two Black me, but silently amused or unphased by the brutal execution of a variant of Black people over the weekend.  All of the 'common folk' and 'woke' celebrities are quieter than church mice that have previously knighted themselves as good people that histori...
