📢I RAMBLED ABOUT GENRE FOR NEARLY 1500 WORDS & JAYSEN LET ME PUBLISH IT SO YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY GO READ IT!!! thank you for ur support ✌🏾😋🖤

THIS ANIMATION IS SO INSANE

why is it that almost every interesting thing i learn about happens to have been created by a Black person only to be co-opted by white people who virtually erased the origin 😐

i had a whole rant ready, but this essay covers the topic much more in-depth (& much nicer) than i would have fuck alchemised, fuck rose in chains, and fuck irresistible urge. anyone who supports those books don't give a damn about trans ppl and it shows. reading isn't political my ass...

"I'm sorry I wasn't there to bring you toys and teach you how to fish."

Do I look like her

I'M OVER THE MOON TO FINALLY BE HOLDING THE ARC OF BLACK AS DIAMOND IN MY HANDS 😭😭😭 this has been my dream since high school and i'm SO grateful to @binderybooks.bsky.social for this opportunity to soon see BAD on shelves 🖤🤍🖤 (also new newsletter just dropped)

How it began & how it ended ❤️💙💛

reconnecting with my childhood by watching haikyuu again. it's the anime my bff & i bonded over. it means a lot to me and so many people around the word as an earnest celebration of teamwork, friendship, and the joy of volleyball. i know it ended 5 years ago, but thanks furudate 🏐

find a character with a cooler name than MAYA TEN METI MURDER THE GODS AND TOPPLE THEIR THRONES #ksbd
