I’m a simple man. I see a new SZA album and I put it on repeat indefinitely.

It’s not about airing grievances. It’s about creating a space where those who are marginalized can exist without fear.
Zoom out.
How the FUCK is it still January-

Half the grief I feel is not because America made a bad choice, but because we only ever have bad ones.
We prioritize capitalism over people every fucking time.
This Govt has opened my eyes to a lot of things over the past 14 months.
Such as the fact when push comes to shove Māori have no say on Waitangi Tribunal appointments.
2024 and we’re still in Colonialism 101.
What even is this timeline?

Take breaks, yes, but don’t turn away.
Ignorance is not bliss. It is simply ignorance.
The reason we say decolonization & deconstruction go hand in hand is because fundamentalism & colonialism both require a vacuum.
In order for either one to work, the worldview must be tiny & presupposed.
So if you’re gonna take apart one, take apart the other too.
