Archduchesskittycat - Exploding Crumpets

A+ example of how the media manipulates people for clicks and anger engagement.

Some months ago I bought the most banned book in the USA 2022 as a protest and it was ONE OF THE BEST DESICION OF MY LIFE! I found myself in this book in so many ways that it helped me understand myself better. At the same time I found enough differences to my own experiences that I started to draw and write something like a personal response (one that I will never publish but that I hold dear to my heart). There were pages in this book that made me want to gift it to anyone who didn't understand my gender or sexuality.

Book banning does nothing but harm. It keeps people from understanding themselves, or history, or others... And it is not lost to anyone, that this is a war on queer people and people of colour specifically.

When my friend group went to see Star Wars Episode 9 there was only one of us who wasn't there that day. And as we all ate ice cream after the film and discussed how much it sucked, I proposed the cruelest joke I have ever played in my life. I said we should all tell the guy who wasn't there how good it was and hype it up. That boy had a whole week of "It really managed to recover and save the sequel trilogy" and "Honestly the coolest one." and when he finally got to see it, his response was a lone "Fuck you." and leaving the group chat.

not to be maya on side but please do not call someone or something “mayan” when talking about our people, culture, etc. “mayan” refers to our language family (a language FAMILY, in which there are plenty of unique languages). we are the maya, not the mayans. i am maya, not mayan. it is the indigenous maya community, not the indigenous mayan community.
