WRT reparations: I know it will never happen. The US can barely acknowledge how terribly it treated Native Americans or how this land was stolen from them. At this point, acknowledgement and formal reconciliation would be a good start to dealing with our racial trauma.

Happy Juneteenth, everybody!

This will be the first time since 2007 that the House has heard testimony on the topic of slavery reparations. The hearing will be held on June 19, the day of #Juneteenth: http://bit.ly/2WF9q5i

In the internet era where every idiot has an opinion.. Don’t be afraid to learn about what you’re talking about before you talk about it.. you don’t have to have an opinion on everything, educate yourself before spewing nonsense.

This is why I have NO tolerance for the jackasses who say “You were mean to me and that made me alt-right”. Get the FUCK out of here with that absolute bullshit

So, I want to talk about the #ModernWarfare panel at E3 and some of what was said. Because it's a perfect example of every problem I have with videogames that attempt to depict "realism" in combat.
Content warning.
I will be vivid.
I will be graphic.
Because I need to be.

If you are in the practice of learning to be disciplined in one way or another, and it seems you're "later" than others, there's nothing more to do other than persist in your practice and be gentle with yourself. Shame has no value here.

99 times out of 100, I don’t find anything when I’m poring through the archives. But then there are days I come across things like this: a front-page story about Jack London attending the birthday party of “a diminutive dog called Fluffy Ruffles” (1911).

Forgive yourself.
#ADHD comes with so much shame and guilt. I’m quick to forgive others, but never show myself the same compassion.
Quick reminder: No one is 100% perfect, 100% of the time.

I think many of us didn't realise we had ADHD because we experience ADHD as it is, with overwhelming processing, choice paralysis, and a lack of control over where we focus, rather than ADHD as it is described by people who don't have it and who assume based off assumptions. https://twitter.com/mogwai_poet/status/1137198643713196032

literally no trans person has ever said 'did u just assume my gender'
Only cis ppl say it, because they dont want to be held accountable for consistently misgendering someone. They belittle trans ppl as crazy and unreasonable and turn us wanting to be respected into a joke.

This new thing of doing some kind of awful fuckshittery towards a marginalized group during their pride/history month is 2019's worst trend
Wow. Thank you so much for standing up for our transgender furs, @BoozyBadger@twitter.com . It sucks that this is the way you have to do it. :/

One of the most important things we can do for Pride this year is boosting the voices of those less-privileged than us. If you're straight, listen to and boost your gay friends. If you're gay, boost your trans family. Boost voices that don't get heard. Step back. Cede the floor.
