When your playing is trash today so you have no recordings to share but you're still serving looks so you take photos instead...
I wrote another blog post, this time about nostalgia in the digital age and trying to write in the shadow of who I used to be: https://write.as/guerrillarain/
There are actions to racism. There are choices to racism (even subconsciously, still choices). I don't want folks to forget that.
I hate the term "racist" as a noun. It ignores the reality that racism is an institution, that it is collective complicity, that it's not just "something you are" (on par with dog-lover, chef, fan of Depeche Mode) and really feels like it lets the person get away with being accountable.

Human beings are so terrible to each other. Not being an asshole is free.
Having a bad day is not an excuse to be shitty and take it out on other people!!
Native American proverbs don't exist. Which Native Americans? If you don't know, they probably didn't say it.
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action";

For every racist white woman you uplift, there are like 30 women and femmes of color more feminist and less bigoted out there in obscurity.

What Happened When I Tried Talking to Twitter Abusers
A great read, but keep in mind this isn't exclusive to Twitter. I've seen this shit from white men on Mastodon too.
I'm not just being dramatic. A very close friend of mine did some really fucked up transphobic and islamophobic and xenophobic shit.
So I dumped her.
I am literally about that life.
And if someone says "yo your friend did something racist" and you bend over backwards to defend the friend and fight the person of color and still powwow and kiki with said racist friend without any form of holding them accountable or reflecting on how they might be little shits...
then yah, in the eyes of people of color, you're an enabler and you suck too.
