It’s ugly how true this is.

I love how there’s absolutely zero background music. People are just dancing to nothing. I love extras.

“What is it about society that disappoints you so much?”
“Oh I don’t know. Is it that we collectively thought Steve jobs was a
great man, even when we knew he made billions off the backs of children?
Or maybe it’s that it feels like all our heroes are counterfeit. The world itself’s just one big hoax. Spamming each other with our
burning commentary of bullshit, masquerading as insight, our social
media faking as intimacy. Or is it that we voted for this? Not with our
rigged elections, but with our things, our property, our money. I’m not saying anything new, we all know why we do this. It’s not because
the Hunger Games makes us happy, but because we want to be sedated,
because it’s painful not to pretend. Because we’re cowards. Fuck
society.”– Mr. Robot by Sam Esmail
Today at Easter dinner, one of my dad’s friends, who I haven’t seen since I was a kid, came up behind me while we were taking pictures and pinched my butt. So I turned to him and said quietly (because I didn’t feel like making a scene) that he was not allowed to touch me that way because it was inappropriate and he laughed in my fucking face and said “Oh, right cause you’re a liberal.” And so I said to him, in the loudest voice possible, that no, it was because I was a fucking human being and my body is mine alone and no one can touch me without my complete consent and if he ever even thought of pinching my butt again, I would punch him in the face. And the whole party was staring at us and you could see how uncomfortable he was even though he tried to laugh it off, and then my dad told him to leave. So, girls, boys, and everything in between, if anyone EVER touches you without your consent in a sexual manner, CALL THEM OUT. Let everyone around you know what they did and tell them to never do it again. Don’t laugh or smile or even frown it off, then walk away (unless it endangers your safety.) Expose them for what they are.
Reparations suggests a conceptually coherent loss. The loss of land, the loss of labor power, etc. In other words, there has to be some form of articulation between the party that has lost and the party that has gained for reparations to make sense. No such articulation exists between Blacks and the world. This is, ironically, precisely why I support the Reparations Movement; but my emphasis, my energies, my points of attention are on the word “Movement” and not on the word “Reparation.” I support the movement because I know it is a movement toward the end of the world; a movement toward a catastrophe in epistemological coherence and institutional integrity—I support the movement aspect of it because I know that repair is impossible; and any struggle that can act as a stick up artist to the world, demanding all that it cannot give (which is everything), is a movement toward something so blindingly new that it cannot be imagined. This is the only thing that will save us.

“they can say whatever the hell they want I don’t care I’ll say ‘fuck you’”
“did you just flip the bird at us?”
“I did flip the bird, yeah”
“but did you flip it at US?”
“yo bruh if this starts a fight how easily can I get out of trouble”
“not very”
“So like I flipped the bird but it TOTALLY wasn’t at you”
Love is like a seesaw. Two people are working at something or one of you is just sitting on a piece of wood.
