Day-to-day new opening for the greatest show on earth
–
K so this was just supposed to be a warm up but i ended up going…almost all out with it. I love drawing Nenna. She’s like…in top five of my fav OCs to draw don’t look at me.
My therapist told me something meaningful yesterday, she said “It’s important to remember that when you’re depressed you have to nurse yourself and be extra gentile towards yourself. Just like an athlete wouldn’t break an ankle then force themselves to run that ankle. They rest as it heals and do not think “I am a failed athelete” they think, “right now something isn’t working so i’ll take care of myself until it does.“
Just like a broken bone, depression can change the way your daily life plays out, and pushing yourself too hard and getting frustrated when you don’t feel better is just like trying to run on that broken ankle and getting frustrated when it doesn’t heal.
Read this. Then read it again. And then save it and read it over and over when you are depressed.
I honestly feel like this Charleston shooting has changed something inside of me irrevocably. Some switch has flipped. I’m not sure what or how exactly, but something has changed.
“he looks light skinned black” my nigga shut the fuck up that hair cut itself screams white serial killer get the fuck outta here “light skinned black” smfh y’all white people crazy
This nigga said light skinned black….. BITCH WHERE 😐
That Rachel woman got her people thinking that’s what the average light skin Black person looks like. GTFOH.
Nah you can’t just pass him off as one of us we don’t kill people at church we won’t even curse near a church they can keep him and Rachel!
this just made me uncomfortable is she serious??!!!! @WHITE PEOPLE YA’LL GONE CLAIM YA’LL DEMON SPAWN.
Im not cool with the train of thought had by some Black folk that Black people should automatically be grateful to white people speaking about racism like they aren’t the root cause in the first place. Not a fan.
Happy Juneteenth! This holiday marks the end of the official institution of slavery in the United States, and was historically widely celebrated by black Americans. The photo above is of a 1905 celebration in Richmond, Virginia.
On this day in 1865, enslaved people in Texas were informed of their freedom, two years following the Emancipation Proclamation. Also on this day, the Civil Rights Act of 1963 was passed, after an 83 day filibuster in the US Senate. This is the 150th anniversary of Juneteenth, meaning that official chattel slavery ended in the United States only six generations ago.
This is an important day to remember and honor all those who struggled against this titanic evil- those whose names we know, and the countless others whose resistance was not recorded and lost to history.
