mysterious pink haired girl I'm playing games with at a friend's birthday party: I thought you'd be better at this when they hyped you up as such a good player. I'm not losing by that much
me, trying to find out what button combination leads to me licking her face in their bathroom: I'm not using my full power because I'm still analyzing your movements. you know, like Goku
We need to work on making our communities more racially accessible in multiple ways; If a larger community is so visibly, overwhelmingly, white that BIPOC give up because it feels that thereâs no space for them/theyâll be muted/blocked for speaking up? Thatâs a huge problem for that community.
Our ability to be heard or have our needs met shouldnât be reliant on whether we receive the grace of a white person. We shouldnât need to perform our anger for an audience, but if a white person with a larger account doesnât pick up and amplify what weâre saying itâll often be dead in the water.
We shouldnt have to break away from the overall communities bc of our race if we want to find others like us. It shouldnât be this hard to find and build community w other Black transfemmes online without leaving larger groups and the information, mutual aid, and more that they provide.
And this isnât limited to online - Washington DC is a 50% Black city whose queer and trans communities are functionally racially segregated. Most events not explicitly advertised BIPOC-run or focused are 70-80% white at MINIMUM despite the cityâs actual demographics, and thatâs ridiculous!
In a time when we are seeing increasing persecution of Queer and especially trans folks *globally*, we canât keep living in a world where white queers, of all ideological persuasions, keep putting whiteness and âthe status quoâ first for their comfort/âmental healthâ leaving BIPOCs to take the brunt of the damage.
If you canât deal with even the general *awareness* of whatâs happening right now nationally or globally, as a white but marginalized person, as BIPOC marginalized folks have to organize first because itâll hit us before yâall? You are sacrificing BIPOC for your comfort, not âbeing neutralâ or âprotecting your peaceâ.
Stop hoping that BIPOC folks are going to save you before it hits you and stop pretending thereâs nothing you can do. You donât have to be suffering from Knowing every damn second but you canât pretend itâs not your problem until it grabs you by the throat either.
MARCH 4TH - 10TH NORTH GAZA DONATION DRIVE THROUGH HELPGAZACHILDREN!
Hello everyone, Hussam wanted to help his people in North Gaza who are suffering from a severe famine. Because previously we ran into technical difficulties with Help North Gaza Campaign, he volunteered his SKYVOIP paypal to raise funds and send them to the North via one of our (@/fairuzfan)'s trusted family friends still in the North named Mahmoud. All of the donations from March 4th-10th will be forwarded to the North for food and other supplies.
The situation is so dire to the extent that a 25 Kilogram bag of flour can now cost $300-$600 and some days even more!
As HelpGazaChildren has been ongoing for about a month now, the $75,000 previously raised has been used on helping more than 6,000 people in Rafah camps. This current fundraiser will be starting from the $75,000 mark.
As of writing this post, we are at $76,387, meaning around $1,400 raised! This will only buy about 3-5 bags of flour which is not enough for the hundreds we intend to help! Our goal is to raise at least $25,000 by the end of the week.
Feel free to visit https://helpgazachildren.notion.site/ for more information.
People are literally dying from hunger in the north. Donating today will save lives!! No amount is too little! If you're unable to donate please spread the link around even outside of tumblr. I really appreciate all your help and please know that you're doing a lot by even just sharing this around.

Note: We will provide pictures and videos of proof of purchase when able.
