Holy shit, what the fuck causes white boomer women to think I, a 30 something brown man, would be interested them?

These are the vibes I’m getting at work and it’s extremely disturbing.

    I was talking to my dad today sharing some good and very important family news.

    Dad: I'm just a little sad right now, my friend was killed yesterday.

    Me: Oh my God! What happened? Which friend?

    D: My friend Charlie.

    M: Charlie? Who's Charlie?

    D: Charlie Kirk.

    M: PFFFFFFT LOL

    Apparently we all lost a really intelligent man who just wanted to help other people. And he was not talking about the killer.

    Now I'm thinking about environmental racism, the capitalist class truly love shitting where they don't eat. Fuck factory farming, fuck oil pipelines and fuck AI data centers. There are more things to list but I'm hungry rn. Guess it's colonialism all the way down same like with the police.

    Bringing up racism in white people's favorite escapism fantasy settings always leaves them reeling especially if they feel themselves as progressive in some manner. The headspace I get from them is "I'm not doing a racism myself just letting it slide from friends/family/strangers whenever it comes up, how am I the bad guy?" They more confrontational at being called racist than they feel like confronting the racist culture around them.

    i dont think ill ever get into superhero media in a way a lot of people are. its like greek mythology/percy jackson-esque fandoms. theres just very little for me to identify with. the exceptionalism of it all. yes im sure its easy to be a "good person" when you literally cant lose because youre that much better than anyone else. pretty much no stakes either because of that. its just masturbatory.

    read something like journey to the west or watch the 1986 show instead.

    thats the thing, dragon ball shares a lot of elements with superheroes yes, but it was first heavily inspired by journey to the west first and foremost. goku is exceptional but not in the ways thats totally inherent to his birthright. among the saiyans he was a destined low class warrior. half of the time he's sparring with forces matching him or even beyond him. most of the time the struggle against antagonists in each arc is a group effort that doesnt necessarily rely solely on his individual role.

    its these elements that i think is how goku managed to resonate with so much with people in the global south. it aint just a meme

    I'm at a point where I functionally can no longer see myself in a relationship with a non-Black person again. I've been thinking a lot on this subject, and my mind has been kind of uncertain these past few months or so.

    What I ultimately came to realize is that, in the context of how I view love, there will be always be something critically lacking in any relationship I'd have with a non-Black person.

    At first, the thought of continuing to accept non-Black partners seemed possibly within my reach so long as they truly were based, were radical, and understood how to fight against anti-Blackness, and as great as some non-Black people are in these regards, I'm now at a point where the thought of dating any non-Black person feels as right as the thought of dating a conservative.

    Of course, that's not me saying it's as bad—hell no. My point is that it just indescribably feels "off" in a way that no amount of other things we have in common can reconcile. Very much needed solidarity will always be missing.

    Ideally, I want a partner who has a lot of things in common with me (the aforementioned 5 traits I've brought up several times). However, to keep my pool somewhat open, I'm going to base my search for a partner (when I'm ready—not a priority at the moment) off of these three things: Blackness, queerness, and veganism.

    I'll go from there, but what I can certainly say now is that I will never entertain romantic and/or intimate encounters with non-Black people ever again.

    My non-white coworker, who takes public transit, is very shaken up about what happened in NC. I know it's not technically racial but also I know it is.

    A whitey just shot up 20 children not even a month ago. Random violence is as amerikan as apple pie but whiteys wanna act like only Black people are violent.

    I remember this episode of static shock where Virgil's dad was dating a cop acab-3 and like Virgil runs away from the cops when they were gonna go through his backpack. The show goes out of its way of justifying from the cops perspective because they really really need to find something super duper important 🥺 nvm 4th amendment protections.

    I know it's still cape shit but in the first season I quite liked it because of it's themes of community and understanding. The show got bigger and eventually folded into the DC universe but that wasn't why I was there to begin with.

    I'm at this point fully convinced that most white ass Americans all share to a degree, the same exact white supremacist views as Kirk did.

    Still a little iffy here since all the stuff went down about burning the flag, but talking to other POC eases my anxiety.

    Talked with some coworkers, we're all various kinds of POC that's been in the headlines lately, and it's been so relaxing. We all fundamentally understand racism because we experience it. The big difference is some other POC are feeling it from the state now while Black folk been feeling it since we were brought here. Regardless, we're able to agree that we feel it and it's all connected and we have solidarity with each others over it and that's enough to keep me going.

    Just also wish my coworkers didn't have the liberal slant but one thing at a time.

    Police watch me sometimes when I'm at the park, they haven't harassed me or anything and I'm usually too zoned out reading/writing/listening to music most of the time. I do think they are getting annoyed with me being so boring, idk having to preform and like this is eh. I'm used to by now always being put under a microscope, like it doesn't help my anxiety most of the time but sometimes I just wanna be invisible.

    Managed to find an Afro-Caribbean non-binary therapist willing to provide pro-bono therapy for me. This is real nice. My last therapist was a dismissive cis white gay man who was deeply infuriating and ineffective.

    Ngl the Kirk stuff did worry me some the other day because of the possible back lash but like if I have to monitor every anti-cracker-aktion fit I would never get things done. Focusing on my HVAC career and the possibility finally of helping to lift my family out of poverty. I got goals and a future for when acab finally goes down

    EU officials downplaying china’s significance in ww2 isn’t too surprising. A bunch of America worshipping whites who live off Netflix and US social media slop. Surprised they even know the history of their own countries.

    Woke up and had a voicemail for this missed call to set up an interview.

    I called back to set up an interview, and that is one W, but another is that, even with my groggy, "just woke up" voice, the person on the phone called me "Miss." That means my voice passes as femme at this point. Nice.
