On the topic of names
youngbadmanbrown:
I introduced myself to this girl the other day, told her to call me Jules
she says: Are you French? That’s a very French name.
And she’s not wrong, but I’ve never really considered it, that along with all the remnants of French colonization that still exist within Haitian language (and culture) that even our names are colonized too.
Sometimes I’ll meet a Haitian and they’ll...

My Cis White Straight Male Coworker
is doing The Most to infuriate me today.
I think it’s because it’s my last day at this job.
Him and my supervisor wanted to have a final lunch and initially I said no, but felt shitty and they cajoled me. He just can’t stop himself from pushing ALL my buttons. I adopt lockjaw and refuse to engage. Sometimes I silently stare away, sometimes I silently stare at him, and sometimes...

I remember one guy at a Mecha conference identifying as Hispanic, and my 19 year old self is going, “WHYYYYYYY! That is such an ugly word.”
My dad still uses it. No se que puedo hacer… I can’t like do it lecture style, no papi that word has this history blah blah blah. La familia def...

Ahh. All you Hispanic-haters reblogging this, TQM.

Dicen las abuelas que el clavo molido aplicado con algodón en la zona que te duele desaparece el dolor. Si vives en Estados Unidos búsca Clove Oil, es lo mismo.

Tooth ache
pinche vida.
I have had thisawfulpain. I’m sure it’s my wisdom tooth coming in (one already came in). My job contract is up today which means I’ll be uninsured for a week. I’ve already been self medicating with pain pills, liquor and beer.
hurts me.

Just one of those things.

Yesterday, I talked with my dad
and I keep trying to plant these ideas in his head. So far, he’s given me control of the backyard (I’m building two raised beds, and putting a hanging herb garden on the back fence), but I want to take dancing lessons with him.
He got all cute and talked about how hard it is for him to go up to strangers.
Today he texted me, we have a cousin who teaches salsa in San Diego.
lol...

Don’t post about race on tumblr unless you’re prepared toget into it.Everyone knows that.
Rookie mistake, Davis.
Way to put our best foot forward, fandom. We couldn’t have saved the racial equality and social justice discussion for AFTER we’d shown him the hilarious memes, awesome fanart, and character metas?
There is so much more to this fandom than wank, but we start with the one...

white people, just because you’re friends with POC doesn’t mean you know what being a POC is like

Or that you get a free pass. Or that you’re extra special just because they bring you around other POC. Or that you can ever get comfortable. Or that you can have anything less than Dumbo ears at all times (as in: huge for listening). BE DUMBO THE ELEPHANT USE...

Can someone please tell me what ‘wapa’ means in Spanish?
lol. I’m guessing you’re hearing ‘guapa’ (if you’re reading it, it’s often written as wapa in texts or chats), which means good-looking or beautiful.

on being queer in a heteronormative relationship
I decided that it would be interesting to explore the intersection of heteronormativity and passing (the latter of which has come up recently over at the excellent Woman of Color blog). I am a queer woman in a straight relationship. I am a light-skinned Chicana who passes unless she says something about it. It makes me incredibly...

1.
I do have visible scars. Up and down the outside of my thighs. They are brown, like me. Just in different shades. Some Carolina-clay-colored, others more of a deep pecan. Most people who notice them nowadays are kinky. They think of them as beautiful. I’m still trying. (To think of them as beautiful, I mean.)
