🎉👑 Honoring a LEGEND: Happy 78th Birthday, Octavia E. Butler!

The Queen of Speculative fiction.

The Mother of Afrofuturism.

The Visionary who changed the game for Black women in sci-fi forever.

Today we celebrate her brilliance, her imagination, and her power.

“Science fiction frees you to go anyplace and examine anything.”

“Every story I write adds to me a little, changes me a little, forces me to reexamine an attitude or belief, causes me to research and learn, helps me to understand people and grow”

“The lovely thing about writing is, well, two things. One, writing fiction allows us to bring an order to our lives that doesn't exist in real life. And two, it allows us to create human characters that we know better than we will ever know anyone in real life.”

Ms. Butler didn’t just write stories; she built futures, she cracked open possibilities, she dared to ask: What if?

Her work still shakes the table to this day.

Without her, would we have masterpieces from Ryan Coogler or Jordan Peele? 🤔🤔

We are because she was.

Her legacy is eternal. 🌌🖤

Happy heavenly birthday, Ms. Butler. 💖👑

"When the house falls, the memories remain standing…"

— A message from Naser, from the heart of Gaza ✍️

Hello

I used to live in my grandfather’s house — a small home filled with my mother’s voice and my sister’s laughter.

But in one moment… everything disappeared.

A missile hit us, and in its cruel silence, it took away my mother and my sister.

I didn’t get to say goodbye… I just stood staring at the rubble, wondering if I was dreaming. 🕊️💔

Now I live with my younger siblings, trying to survive the aftermath. 🧱

But the truth is harsh: no flour, no bread, no sense of safety. 🍞🚫

We boil water and pretend it’s enough. We act strong for each other… but inside, we’re tired. 😔

Every night we sleep hoping to wake to a different morning…

But even the mornings are silent now. 🌅🕯️

All we have left is patience… and memories that refuse to fade. 🧠🫶

I’m not asking for pity… only that you read these words with your heart.

And if you feel moved to be a light in our darkness — even just a flicker

✅️Vetted by @gazavetters, my number verified on the list is ( #586 )✅️

Every prayer, every share, every kind word… brings light to a corner of our broken world. 💡✨

Thank you for reading.

Thank you for caring.

Thank you for being human. 🤍🌍

i miss when tv shows could write a slow burn relationship and not worry that they'd get cancelled before it could even really start to begin to burn

I love that psychic powers are still "allowed" in science fiction. They're an acceptable part of the aesthetic. Like you can't have magic, but you can have brain magic, because it's more Science.
