Gender abolition, but make it:

clothes sorted by body shape and style, instead of gender

removing unnecessary gender markers from non-medical documents like a driver’s license

genderless bathrooms where the stalls have floor-to-ceiling walls for privacy

abolishing gendered toys, colors, professions, hobbies, etc.

they/them as the default if you don’t know someone

And NOT:

trans and non-binary people being barred from identifying with and expressing their gender

A black girl will be spending years in jail because she had a mental health crisis. PLEASE READ

Meet Saraya: she was experiencing a mental health crisis. Police came and tackled her. She is 15.

Saraya Rees is a 15 year old biracial girl from Coos County, Oregon. After being abruptly instructed to stop taking her antidepressants by a local pediatrician, Saraya went into psychosis. In her manic state, Saraya poured a small amount of gasoline on the floor. Her parents called Coos Health & Wellness in hope that that would send mental health advisors, Coos Health & Wellness sent the police. While still in psychosis, the officers arrested her, questioned her without her family or lawyers present, charged with attempted murder and assault, and sent her to juvenile prison for 11 years.

ELEVEN.YEARS.

This is not justice.

This is inhumane.

Hey, I’m. It usually the one to post this on my backup account that is mostly for Fandome and anime rants, and dribbles and so forth but:

I think you all need to watch this and LISTEN because this shit is not a joke or should it be take likely.

To all my black followers out there and my allies that stand with me and BLM, share this is you can.

As stated, this is the 9th hanging of the year 2020 alone that we have ACKNOWLEDGE of.

Please, everyone, stay safe and be careful out there

I’ve never been too good at taking serious outfit photos, so I decided to take some zany ones instead :)

Here’s a couple of 80’s and 70’s throwbacks I threw together recently, featuring my newly completed top xx

ACAB doesn’t mean that I think your uncle who is a cop is a bad person, it means that your uncle who is a cop is working for a corrupt system that should be defunded, and shouldn’t be allowed to be in works anymore. would you rather save a bunch of white jobs, or save a bunch of black lives, you choose, black lives or white jobs.

“The long sleeve is from Uniqlo, neon yellow tee from Friend Of A Friend Studio, and the pants are from Aritzia. I am super inspired by Chinatown aunties and grandmas because they are the masters of wearing clashing (yet perfect) prints or colors. I also take inspiration from 90s classic icons like TLC, Sporty Spice, and Aaliyah for a more streetwear, edgy, and fun remix to my outfits.”
