They all look the same to me.
This. I almost copped some Evisus back in the day for like $250 though LOL
The most I’ve paid is $50 at American Eagle. But usually jeans don’t cost more than that.
Y’all are some rich mothafuckas. I don’t pay more than 17.99 plus tax…

Okay………… so white woman goes to non-white country and says that she was “objectified” for her white skin by the men there.
It happens. I’m not saying cat-calls and objectification are okay, because I don’t think they are ever okay.
But.
I am so over white women complaining about how hard they have it for being white.
And doing so while completely...

“I would say it is impossible for cis people to discuss trans bodies in this space without being attacked by someone.”
I would say that there is nothing that better illustrates the wrongness of many, MANY cis people’s attitudes toward transness than this sentence.
Why?
Substitute “white” for “cis” and then substitute “PoC” for “trans.” Or substitute “abled” and...

thearkhproject:
Yesterday, notice was received from Kate at Indiegogo that part of #Arkh’s pitch on indiegogo was “unlawful”. Namely, that the lines about using the money to hire queer people and PoC artists were “breaking anti-discrimination laws”. Now Arkh’s goal is to not only make this game, but to use the money to support the community at the end of its goals, the queer community and the...

I give up...
Today was the day of fuck all the things. There was shitty old white guy in the car, there was jail inmate mad-dogging me for an hour because I didn’t have his test results, the death of my sister’s cat, who I also adored, being pulled over for having a brake light out and getting a ticket because my inspection is expired and then finding out that the ticket I asked for a court date...

I am sure that in your entitled life you are used to women, especially women of color, cowering before your anger and ugliness. I am not one of those women. I faced down a raging man multiple times by myself as a child and I didn’t back down once then. If you fucking think I’m going to cower before your angry, entitled temper tantrum now, after almost a year of Krav training,you have...

This isn’t news, and especially not to those from communities of color, but it’s good to share:
W.K. Kellogg Foundation (WKKF) released a new report, “Cultures of Giving: Energizing and Expanding Philanthropy by and for Communities of Color”.
… Recent trends show that communities of color are giving at increasing rates and levels. For instance, 63 percent of Latino...

At least 50 indigenous people are said to have committed suicide in the north of Mexico, where freezing temperatures and a long drought, have left hundreds of members of the Raramuri tribe at the brink of starvation.

I remember my first encounters with the sex positivity/sex positive movement, especially through the internet. I remember loving the basic principle of the thing: “Sex is awesome! No one should be ashamed of their sexuality or wanting sex! Let’s bring it out into the open so we can all enjoy a healthy, happy relationship...
