Trapped in 🇺🇸 Alabama Hater of : capitalism, colonization, patriarchal religions, racists, misogynists, homophobes and bigots. Lover of : all women, most they/thems and like 5 men. Plus art, music, history, science and anything pink, rainbow or sparkly. 🏳️🌈
No one ever explicitly bullied me because I am autistic, but I did get bullied for having special interests, getting “special” treatment which was really just being separated from the bullies, for being weird, for being smart, for asking questions, for liking colors and patterns….
Of note: it doesn’t help when your roommates lose their jobs. Grocery costs are rising exponentially too. Moving requires money that doesn’t exist. Which actually accrues more debt not less. You can’t find balance from burnout. Stop letting them silence you with platitudes.
Can we talk about how Republicans have been stealing elections for a long while now yet?!?! It has happened over and over again in red states because there’s no accountability by the opposition.
The majority of not wealthy Americans are working too hard for not enough and we all need to stop pretending this is an acceptable life. If only there were a group of ultra obscenely wealthy folks who hoarded all the wealth and could be taxed down to millionaire existence….
It occurred to me that I never had much of a childhood. My mom was physically present but mentally checked out before I was four and there wasn’t really anyone else around and there was me and my siblings… and there was this constant invisible pressure to hide this from other adults.
If Christian’s had the critical thinking skills necessary to read their Bible they would see that life begins at breath and they are fighting a war that they will never win logically. But they can’t read so here we are.
Once you see the entire system is designed by men for men to be able to escape actual accountability, you’ll never go back. Christianity is designed for those who like to spend their entire lives as oppressive monsters then escape accountability at the end much like the thief on the cross.
If this option to take time off were actually available to the masses, I could still have a job. I don’t actually enjoy being stuck in the home and would actually prefer to have a job and feel like a productive member of society. But I am a woman and capitalism isn’t meant for me.
I went to a private Christian school from kindergarten through my freshman year (that’s 10 years) I didn’t fully read the Bible until after getting out of that school. And even then I had to read it through three times as an adult before it finally clicked because of the indoctrination.
2/2 If capitalism is a core tenant of the group identity then there is no option other than to call it a cult. Making Swifties not any different from MAGA.
There is no way around it. EVERY billionaire only got there by literally standing on (crushing) other people. No. One. Should. Ever. Be. A. Billionaire.
The education system (including for doctors) has been in a steady decline since at least 2002 (really since Christians got their hands on the printing press) and it’s only going to get worse. Anywho, get your DIY healthcare plan going!!
For America’s 250th I give her my art piece titled: Bleeding Heart Liberal.
Ah yes, totes. Capitalism Blandie totally is being charitable and definitely not at all hoping to rehabilitate her image without factually changing her ways. Taylor Swift is no one’s friend and certainly not factually charitable. It’s a ruse.
Being raised a Christian taught me to hate myself and also distorted my perception when it came to love. BDSM forced me to learn to care for myself and love myself.
There. Are. No. Good. Billionaires. None. Nada. Zip. Zilch. She’s not even talented, she’s just forced down everyone’s throats.
Everyone hates the authoritarianism of Christianity too. And the depravity of Colonization. All of it is connected and easy to see if you stop focusing on just your issues and look outside of yourself and truly and fully see your neighbor.
I worked in a telecommunications call center. One time a dude called and yelled at me for a good while because his cable was cut off, because he did not (and would not) pay the bill. Dear Reader, he hung up when I pointed out I can’t pay his bills for him. These. People. Vote.
It’s really too bad that the amendment from 1876 didn’t pass. That’s the one necessary to keep capitalism and extremism in check. It only took 18 years for the religious extremists to build up enough to propose that 1894 amendment which looks an awful lot like something out of Project 2025.
Finding the words to define what your parents did to you is so important to be able to move forward in life.
For those who haven’t read it, yes, the Bible contains multiple instances of incest. Also child sacrifice. Children are held as responsible for the sins of their father. The Bible’s theme is putting your humanity on the line for an invisible deity who hasn’t spoken/appeared in over 2000 years.
Once again, literally everything was in Project 2025. Women (AND MINORITIES) losing their rights to vote has always been a part of the Trump/Republican agenda.
Your belief in your sky daddy is between you and him. Stop inflicting your daddy issues on others.
It’s not called the Bible Belt because it’s supportive, (you might know the Bible Belt by another name; the Mason Dixon line) it’s called the Bible Belt because the belt is used for punishment (aka oppression.)
It won’t happen, but I hope one day neurotypicals remove themselves as being capable of comprehending neurodivergent brains. It’s neurotypicals that demand black and white thinking. It’s neurotypicals that assert their thinking onto others. It’s neurotypicals who can’t seem to grasp nuance.
Fun fact: we can’t bootstrap our way out of depression when the depression the majority of us are feeling is because our economy sucks and WE HAVE NO SOCIAL SAFETY NETS.
Honestly people, if you can’t see it then your eyes are willfully shut. Racism and misogyny are by products of capitalism because capitalism is designed for rich white Christian men. The USA will continue to burn down because of its adherence to capitalism and Christianity.
I’m proud of the absolute last Father’s Day email I sent. I made sure to say thank you.
Hear me out: the anger towards Black Americans flourishing once they gained “equality” under capitalism is the same anger visible here. This is why I say racism and misogyny come from the same place. It’s ultimately mediocre white men realizing they are (and always will be) the losers.
