Video is so exhausting to make. 😭😭

i'm tired of having to fight white people for them to see us as human and deserving of respect and dignity.

Can't fuckin' believe I'm doing this but here goes: Twitter is a mind prison, a true jail of career advancement. I stopped posting on there and within months I became the CEO of The Onion and I'm not kidding. Went back on last year, felt worse, then left again.

If you want to be a little more empowered in this moment in time, read this fantastic “lessons learned” article.

Yes. Seriously. Listen to the multitude of Black voices telling you the harm that being subjected to anti-Black racism does to them, instead of the voice in your head.

being exposed to racism causes physical harm to Black people and yes actually people should have to think about that if they are at risk to contributing

But hey fuck Black disabled people and let’s do reductive and intentional misreadings right kait

Also, it's ridiculous that healthcare laws vary from state to state and that healthcare isn't just free.

💔

Because of lack of/lessening overall of reading comprehension or something else?

If you can’t acknowledge this, you’re too racist to do any analysis about the incident

Something I learned and did not previously understand is that these kinds of outbursts are specifically related to intrusive thoughts. so for the word to come out, the person has to have the word pop up in their head. So we need to ask, structurally, why this word remains there, in this context.

The US government and supportive oligarchs are lashing out in every single direction.... it's horrific

The United States is eager to destabilize Mexico as a way to counter their support for Cuba and to distract from the economy and the Epstein files.

I don't have sympathy for a white person's disability making them use a racial slur for me, I just am not positioned to have to have sympathy for that. If a white person with Tourettes, or bipolar like me, called me a slur, I'm swinging.

If you are serious about "never again" then remember: it's not about standing up to a line of tanks when the camps are already running. It's about standing up to social & professional pressure when the whole thing is just getting started, when it's not yet cool to do so. That's bravery that matters.

They would have ABSOLUTELY found a way for these words not to heard. They would not want to hear about any disability either.

I don't trust these ppl they could absolutely be trying to prime us for Jim Crow 3.0.

have some feelings about thanking the audience for their “understanding and helping create a respectful space for everyone” when it is very clearly not a respectful space for everyone

If you have people in affected areas (lots of US and Canadian expats, snowbirds and tourists there) they should get in contact with their embassy, stay inside, keep calm, eat something, charge their phones etc.

Yes this is disruptive and scary for visitors but it’s much much harder on the locals

I’m not sure how much is breaking through the sunday news cycle about Mexico but remember the USA puts all this pressure to get the cartel leaders and provides absolutely no support with aftermath like this. Who buys the drugs? USA. Who supplies their guns? USA also

Niceness is like a candle. It provides a bit of light, but if you’re freezing, it’s not much help. Kindness is the warmth of a fireplace on a freezing cold night.

Both are, well, nice… but one of them is necessary.

No one is above the law—it doesn’t matter how much money they have or how powerful their friends are.

We need justice for Epstein’s survivors and accountability for everyone involved in the abuse of children.

REBUILD - Darkness Rising Project Need help finding a Black therapist? We can help.

A reminder that REBUILD can connect people of color detained by ICE and released with free therapy/counseling: www.darknessrisingproject.org/help-me-find...

The basic idea for REBUILD is one of my best ideas.
