I live in defiance of all the bad that is around me.
nobody will ever see this but i do wanna just say something. in light of what is happening in the us, in the country that has always and likely forever will be my HOME, let's all remember to FEEL. okay?
us atiny (aimed specifically here because I'm making an ateez lore reference rn), there's a REASON much of ateez's discography and lore is about feeling things as a way to spite the government. as a way to fight back against oppressors. they don't WANT us to feel things outside of the collective content-ness they want us to feel.
feel the anger. the rage. the gut wrenching sadness. the hopelessness. but also don't forget to feel hope. to feel happiness. to love. in spite of it all. in spite of the oppressor. love yourself. love your community. love whoever the fuck you want.
they don't want us to feel, and the easiest, quietest act of rebellion is just FEELING.
this isn't nearly as nuanced as it should be and I'm aware of that. i'm an unlabeled, barely out queer white woman who has had a relatively sheltered, unlived life. i have the privilege to not be losing my closest friends and family or my job in these times. i cannot, should not, and will not speak for others' lived experiences or how those experiences should be felt or perceived. it's not my place nor is it my right to do so.
but do NOT let them win. do NOT let them mold you and shrink you further. it's not easy. it never has been, and it never will be.
please, do NOT let them take YOU away from yourself.
i love you. take care of yourselves and your communities in those special ways that you always have.

I don’t know you. But I love you. I will always choose love that’s not a bad thing nor will I ever feel bad about choosing it

You are going to laugh until your stomach hurts again. You're going to be in awe of a sunset. Watch your favorite show while you eat your favorite food. Find money on the street. Discover a great band you haven't heard of before. You will find your way back.

Can you tell me it'll be okay? And mean it?
Yeah. It feels like shit now and there's a lot to worry about, but there was a lot to worry about last month and four years ago and eight years ago and twelve years ago and sixteen and twenty and twenty four and twenty eight and on and on and on.
Continue to work locally, continue to help people, continue to speak up for what is right and protest what is wrong.
We all should be breaking unjust laws and taking care of one another because you don't survive things like this by being isolated and alone, you survive things like this by building networks and creating parallel systems and growing tight bonds with the people in your community (either physically or digitally).
Plan on helping someone get an abortion. Plan on lying to ICE. Plan on helping someone get hormones. Plan on defending an encampment. Plan on sharing information that is being hidden. Plan on potesting a pipeline or supporting forest defense. Plan on not crossing picket lines. Plan on helping your friends get their meds.
The US Federal Government sucks shit and is not here to help. But there are millions of people who want to help each other, and those are the people you should be focusing your energy on.
It's going to be hard, but it was always going to be hard. I believe in my community, I believe in the networks I've built, I believe in the ability of small groups to make change and I believe in you.
Don't panic about what's on the horizon, do something *today* that will make someone else's life better tomorrow and it will feel less like the world is falling down.

when i was a teenager it felt very revolutionary to be cruel to myself. like some kind of slow passive protest against how much everything hurt. i starved myself of sleep and food and tenderness because it felt right. it felt sharp and angry and radical and i wanted to be those things. adulthood is the realisation that the world is already working to cut into you well before you learn how to do it yourself. caring for yourself and others is the real protest

what's wrong babe you've barely touched your potential even though all your elementary teachers really liked you and said you were gifted and that you were going to do great things

Ever notice how any time someone calls you "cringe", 99 times out of 100 what they mean is "you're happy and I don't like it"
No one ever calls bullying cringe. No one ever calls rudeness cringe. No one ever calls toxic negativity cringe. Only hobbies get called cringe. Only enjoying things get called cringe. Only jokes and mannerisms and interests get called cringe.

It's Autumn, which means if I make a Big Pot of Soup it will Fix Everything. No one fact check me on this. We need to let the soup speak for itself.
