Betye Saar was an inspiration to so many. I'm heartbroken but glad that those who love me also know my love for her work. The little hand in the center of my quilt tattoo is my itty bitty piece of Betye to keep. A reference to the hand motifs throughout my fav Betye pieces. RIP💘
three types
1. aggressively minds their own business, can't be bothered w men
2. aggressively Princess-coded, loudly states their demands for a certain kind of treatment
3. aggressively fairy-coded, floats thru life, unashamedly lover-girl in nature
ALL KNOWN TO LEAVE QUICKLY
Every generation does respectability politics nonsense with black kids. And it starts with believing that they’re uniquely morally and socially deficient. When black kids are just like all other kids. The burden of racism should make you more sympathetic to them, not harsher.
rest in power to the sorceress of black aesthesis, Betye Saar.
the only craftsmaker who’s work feels like it literally opens up hallowed ground around it.
That Nolan Wells audio dropping, coroners not sending over the throat in the autopsy AND them originally calling this a drowning needs to keep being reiterated.
These two things are not related at all. Also people are pretty allergic to dogs and they definitely should not be around food. If you want to take a dog outside then take them to a dog park—that’s literally what it’s for
also btw I don’t think you have to bring your snotty, screaming crotch gremlin to the coffee shop and let it cough and scream while it shits up it's back and fills the diaper with piss around where people are eating and drinking. I think you can just like. have coffee at home
Fun fact: children are young humans who are in the process of learning how to be adult humans and exist in the human world! Dogs, on the other hand, will never be humans and therefore do not need to experience "going inside a coffee shop" at any point in their canine lives.
Six months ago today, we lost our Founder, Ms. Shirley Raines.
She turned giving into a movement, and you’ve kept it alive.
Now, in her honor:
🎒 Back-to-school drive: Aug. 29 in Vegas
💜 Shirley Raines Legacy Grant: $1,000 to 5 people every quarter
The movement continues 💜
DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT fight with aries moons… we fight with our mothers for sport, we are relentless and at a certain point we find that shit funny because we know we cannot find a middle ground. We enjoy instigating, unless you are aquarius/gemini/or libra moon, good luck!
the full moon in aquarius this week demands honesty. time to rid yourself of all the things in yourself & within yourself that weigh heavily on your chest & restrict forward momentum. these transits will likely uncover things people would rather keep hidden👀
