A Better World Is Possible - Tumblr Posts

"Calling me naive just implies that you do not have the kind of peaceable imagination that I do. You don't have the capacity for imagining future joy and prosperity. If you have young people telling you 'another world is possible - we know it is,' and you're saying to them, 'no, it's not,' maybe that's a failure of your imagination.

"If you insist that another world is not possible, you cannot possibly be one of the people that changes the world. If you insist that you can't imagine a better way of doing things, then you will not be one of the people constructing that better way.

"And that's not actually an indictment of other people's naivete, that's an indictment of you and your passivity, if you will."

we need to bring back anon kink memes in a big way. no one is horny enough anymore. the other night i found a fic on an old kink meme from 2009 that was so well-written and also so raunchy and foul (affectionate) it could have stripped paint off my car. there is something about truly unapologetic filth that can be transcendent and tender and marrow deep and maybe if we all leaned into being anonymous depraved little weirdos again we'd learn how to have more fun.
