What was once a blog for dumping my interests in, will now be dedicated to spreading awareness. Id like to say I'm crushed that there's so much discrimination in the world today. From this point on my blog will be used regularly and I'll be posting about the world.
My goal is the truth. As A Transgender individual I'm pretty well versed in what goes on politically for the LGBT community, but I've also seen an abundance of issues regarding the continuous genocide against the Palestinians and people in the Congo. Women are still looked down upon, murdered, 🍇ed, and seen as "over emotional" as well as young women being put through parentified roles.
One of my main goals is learning more about people who have disabilities and the discrimination they face, as well as the rights that they lack. I know of some issues regarding young people, but I know I don't have enough knowledge as of right now to fully speak on it.
Mental health is very important during these times, but most individuals aren't able to get the care they need due to the price of health care being unaffordable and many plans don't include therapy or psychological treatments. The misinformation of mental illness is spread everyday, but so is almost everything now.
I may not be the most professional person but I am able to educate myself, and the best way I know how is to study and write. So if I'm going to write to learn, I may as well push the information here so that others will be able to learn as well.
Welcome to a series of essays: Understanding The World

Izuku is sixty years old—he doesn’t have the energy to be a villain anymore. Luckily he’s been sent back to his childhood, where he can get a regular job, move somewhere warm, and never deal with heroes again.
Right?

This year’s Swordtember was short for me, but I’m still glad I tried it. Designing weapons for a change was lotsa fun! Really looking forward to try some more object design challenges in future.

Participating for getting a first and second draft of my first novel in my trilogy done. I have no real goal as to how many words, just that I want the "dumbest draft" and the "some what less dumb draft" done throughout the month. Ive been planning this series for a long time, wrote parts of it over the years but never sat down and wrote a Manuscript for it, until now!! I'm so excited to get started on this ongoing project. I can not wait for the first draft to be finished ❤️❤️ keep writing. We got this 🫡
It’s that time of year! Nano participants, let me talk to ya!
What are y’all working on? Are you going for 50k, or just working on a project? Meeting a goal? Please, tell me, I’m all ears!!!

Ive been trying to figure out how to word this without sounding disrespectful but it really is like this. And when you go to search for it is always over sexualized. It's depressing as a bigger person not seeing much representation for my body type and bigger bodies then my own. Like I'm 5'4 and I weigh 230lbs, the most muscular part of me is my legs.
I wish more people would make art with the intention of including multiple body types and ethnicities. We've gotten pretty good with the ethnicities over the years, but the body types are severely lacking. I'd like to look up chubby characters, art, ECT and see them without it being nothing but overly sexualizing them. It's good to feel comfortable and have body positivity, but they can't go out dressed in underwear. Please give us more body types in art!!!
Kinda sad realizing i really dont see fat art much often, and like i DO see it bc i have mutuals who draw it and i like it, but like all of the popular artists and fanart i see on my dash or whatnot, like 99% of it is skinny and it is definitely something to look at all these countless really talented artists who u look at their art for inspo and u realize they dont really draw fat people... i just want to see it more -_-

The novel I was working on since middle school was originally a stand alone in 2016-2018, then I thought, hey let's make it a sequel, and now, 2023, 7 years later, it has evolved into a 5 book series. I hope to have the first book published by 2025, I have much editing and rewriting to do.
Never back down never give up!

when i drink a sip of water, i think of a child in gaza who's thirsty right now.
when i fill my plate up with warm food, i think of the thousands going hungry in gaza.
when my children play and laugh, i think of the martyred and injured children of gaza.
when my husband and i share a moment together, i think of the widowed partners in gaza, alone and lonely.
when i have a headache and take painkillers, i think of the surgeries being performed on the streets of gaza without anesthesia.
when my child runs to me for comfort after a fall, i think of the babies screaming, "mama" "baba", after an airstrike in gaza.
when i take a warm shower, i think of the people of gaza who haven't been able to clean themselves in days.
when i'm about to fall asleep, i look up at the ceiling and think of what a luxury it is to not have to worry about it falling on my head as i sleep, as it does in gaza.
every moment of every day, i constantly think of the mothers, fathers, grandparents, newborns, children of gaza.
all i have are these thoughts and prayers to offer my Lord on the day of judgment - ya Allah, my heart was with the people of gaza.
it bled with them, mourned for them, and yearned for them.
every moment of every day.

while y’all are advocating for a ceasefire - and you should be - we need to keep centered that while a ceasefire is necessary to stop the current genocidal attacks and get the food, water and medical supplies that palestinians urgently need to them as soon as possible, we CANNOT stop there.
a ceasefire is an important step that MUST happen but we cannot let it be the end. the world cannot turn away. because as soon as we do, israel will restart their genocidal campaign. a ceasefire is step one, but we MUST end the occupation. palestine MUST be free. there is no other option.
so please do continue to advocate for ceasefire, to protest and call your representatives demanding that they support it, but if it happens, do not become complacent. we cannot stop until the occupation ends and palestine is free.

I’m still reading up on everything (I just woke up) but Israelis crying like there won’t be 30 Palestinian deaths for each settler killed astounds me each time - they truly don’t consider the violence they inflict on Palestinians day in and day out - then get surprised when Palestinians fight back. Happens like clockwork

notice how in almost all the videos and pictures being released of palestinians being asked what would be the first things they'd do once they're freed, the first things they usually say is "i would rebuild my home".
not "i could kick out all the israelis". not "i would kill the settlers".
it's "i would rebuild my home."
meanwhile, the zionists' only goals are to kill and kick out palestinians. that's the only thing they want. they want to kill and ethnically cleanse all of us until there are none left. and the world is literally letting it happen.
