the new modern tumblr queer lgbtqia+++* community isn’t even an activist movement anymore it’s just a cult of spoiled brats with a fetish for false moral purity who could care less about actually helping people because they’re busy sitting around jacking off their own egos for some woke points like there’s some girl scout badge system for who’s read communist theory and who bought the most rainbow enamel pins this year and who could invite the most people to the cult

Mrs. Clinton Walker House (Aka Cabin on the Rocks), 

Carmel Point, Carmel-by-the-Sea, California,

Designed by Frank Lloyd Wright,

The Usonian-style cottage was designed in 1945-1951and completed in 1952-1956 for Mrs. Clinton “Della” Walker of Pebble Beach. 

Frank Lloyd Wright designed the house to resemble a ship’s bow on the water making use of the reef. Although it was enlarged in 1956 to 130 square meters (1400sq. ft.), initially, it was 92,9 sqm (1,000 sq. ft.) with three bedrooms, three baths, a kitchen and a 37,2 sqm (400 sq. ft.) living area. 

In 1956, a studio addition was designed by Mr Wright for Ms Walker’s craftwork and weaving at the southeast corner of the building. The plans were eventually used to make way for an expanded primary bedroom in 1960

The house made the USA National Register of Historic Places in 2016.

What Resembles the Grave but Isn’t

by Anne Boyer

Always falling into a hole, then saying “ok, this is not your grave, get out of this hole,” getting out of the hole which is not the grave, falling into a hole again, saying “ok, this is also not your grave, get out of this hole,” getting out of that hole, falling into another one; sometimes falling into a hole within a hole, or many holes within holes, getting out of them one after the other, then falling again, saying “this is not your grave, get out of the hole”; sometimes being pushed, saying “you can not push me into this hole, it is not my grave,” and getting out defiantly, then falling into a hole again without any pushing; sometimes falling into a set of holes whose structures are predictable, ideological, and long dug, often falling into this set of structural and impersonal holes; sometimes falling into holes with other people, with other people, saying “this is not our mass grave, get out of this hole,” all together getting out of the hole together, hands and legs and arms and human ladders of each other to get out of the hole that is not the mass grave but that will only be gotten out of together; sometimes the willful-falling into a hole which is not the grave because it is easier than not falling into a hole really, but then once in it, realizing it is not the grave, getting out of the hole eventually; sometimes falling into a hole and languishing there for days, weeks, months, years, because while not the grave very difficult, still, to climb out of and you know after this hole there’s just another and another; sometimes surveying the landscape of holes and wishing for a high quality final hole; sometimes thinking of who has fallen into holes which are not graves but might be better if they were; sometimes too ardently contemplating the final hole while trying to avoid the provisional ones; sometimes dutifully falling and getting out, with perfect fortitude, saying “look at the skill and spirit with which I rise from that which resembles the grave but isn’t!”

I wonder how much of our parents we know through knowing ourselves. I wonder how much of ourselves we think are our own and were first born in our parents. I wonder, even in death, what I still learn about my father.

pardon my french but the attempting to conflate radfems with the political right is the dumbest fucking thing. like yes, conservatives LOVE socialist radical lesbians who are pro choice, anti nuclear family, pro separatists, anti gender roles. right wingers love witches who are gay and exclude men. jesus fucking christ

The biggest threat to men at night is other men so for the sake of mens precious health we should institute a male curfew. If you disagree you're a misandrist and against men's rights to be safe at night

i love poly ppl being like "my primary partner" i love them reinventing the concept of "my main hoe" and side hoes

In mine and many other east Asian cultures, the dragon traditionally symbolises things like power, wealth and strength (imperial symbol and all)

I think we often forget that in the story of the Great Race, the dragon came in fifth because it'd stopped to give people rain. Then it'd stopped again to push a rabbit adrift on a log across the wide river so it reached the shore safely (that's why the Rabbit year comes before the Dragon).

Dragons aren't meant to just be powerful - they are meant to do good with such power, and to help those in need.

So in this lunar new year, I hope you gain more power, so that you might be able to help others. I pray you have abundant resources so you may give to yourself and those around you. I wish you courage, endurance, kindness and generosity, for yourself and your people.

I hope you, and I, will be rain givers, life preservers, joy bringers.

I hope we will be dragons.

I feel like a lot of liberals, especially the younger generation, don't really have any core beliefs other than "let everyone do as they please!" they're radical individualists. If something makes me happy, then it's good. If something makes them happy, then it's good because who am i to get in the way of someone else's happiness and freedom. No structural analysis. No attachment to anything other than individual personal fulfilment. Very spineless imo and antithetical to socialism and feminism.
