Since July is Disability Pride Month
(as opposed to every other month when we’re all demure about disability rights /gentle sarcasm)
I wanted to highlight one of my favorite artists: Liberal Jane.

being uncomfortable becomes easier when you realize that’s literally the point. it’s like working out. if you work out & it becomes easy for you, you already got all you could out of that workout. your body adjusted & is strong enough to handle it now. you’re not improving anymore. that’s why you up the ante with harder workouts, where you’re uncomfortable & not quite strong enough yet. bc eventually you will be strong enough. but if it’s not a challenge, there’s no gain. & that’s exactly how it is with situations out of your comfort zone. the more you put yourself in them, the easier they get—but that in-between phase where you’re struggling is still completely valid and ok and natural. it’s what’s supposed to happen. it’s what’s going to change you as a person. and you should keep doing it

Colorism isn’t just light skin being preferred.
Colorism is calling a dark skin girl bitter to invalidate her experiences.
Colorism is “we’re all Black at the end of the day” to dismiss the disadvantages of darker skin.
Colorism is “dark skin girls are popular now though”.
Stop.
