OOOOOOOH getting GOOD

lord i am TRYING! so hard! to drop into this book.

it’s finally starting to get interesting

flows so well, fabulously written, dropped in!!!

this text was recommended as a way to better understand the red-pull brainwashing happening to conservatives.

referenced throughout sonya renee taylor’s the body is not an apology (i love that book!) as a thorough breakdown of the origins of fatphobia. my library finally got a copy!

holy! fuck!

i love them, i love THEM!

how did i know know i was a lesbian? honestly embarrassing for me…

SPOILER:

I DID NOT KNOW THEIR WERE VAMPIRES!!!

aHH !! i love it

!!! class mobility is a MYTH !!!!!

this book is one of the most well researched texts i’ve ever read. literally an airTIGHT demonstration of how systematic racism & caste is. even if it’s not legally allowed, the private sector will find a way. & if the private sector feels like “helping” AKA exploiting black americans, the government prevents it.

like you know it’s happening but seeing it so clearly & repeatedly laid out is in-fucking-sane

FUCK THE FHA!!

he talks about euphemisms, highlighting how terms like "inner city" mask the reality of intentional systemic segregation. how we don’t call it that after white affluent folks gentrify the area. how language is a powerful tool in shaping and reframing narratives

i’m interested, dropped in

stoooooop 💩

this livestream scene is INSANE !!! truly i hate it, i am not built for this!!

also fucking hate sasha, i know that’s the point but goddddd

not the hello kitty key 🫠🥲

AH! her vulnerability in this section, talking about abandonment and the fear of taking w/o giving inspires me to honor that sacred and vulnerable side of myself more, not to push it down. it is a beautiful thing to see and be seen!!! !

“…seething when called a woman, and laughing when they tell me to transition.”

to me, gender is so stupid and complicated, at times so heartbreaking.

“…as if i’ve never thought about what it would be like to live as a man instead. the relief that would come from passing from not having to face the everyday violence and humiliation of living in my body.”

obsessed with queer interpretations of religious texts, LOVE that she saw herself reflected in maryam :,,,)

“that she never knew, that she never even tried to know” in relation to growing up depressed/unwell, but preforming just fine

the way she talk about school…me too.
