i will say this as a person who is not white: i think being called racist as a white person is like way lower stakes than anyone makes it out to be. and like, the reality is that white people have an inflated sense of anxiety about what being called Racist Means when like. let's be fucking real for a second. it does not meaningfully often result in Material Violence to a person for being "called racist." and I think being racist is just a thing that happens. and like if we are going to say that being accidentally racist from time to time is something that like, is relatively low stakes, that has to go hand in hand with being like. ok well I guess i should take some time to think about why someone might think I'm racist and like Do something about that.

like I think the paranoia and anxiety about how Being Called Racist is something that Does Violence to People is rooted in a white guilt racialized anxiety and if I am going to be real with you I do not think it is based in material reality. you can be a little uncomfortable it's not the end of the world. i think it's frustrating as a racialized person to see so many white people more frantically hand-wringing over the prospect of being called "racist" than over the prospect of Being Racist. it's annoying to say the least.

I am typing this from a hospital room. I now am recovering from lung infection from subnutrition (in the midst of yet another pandemic), still have 0,95% less severe OCD, is assaulted by hallucinations, have a pained digestive system, and regularly experience fatigue and coughs. I need help. Bad.

Once again, I got lung infection from subnutrition which means I need regular, consistent money for food, but I also need it for clothing, storage items, toiletry. This knowing my Mom uses my money without my consent. I am completely dependent on the help of others, which is something extremely painful to admit, but unwittingly concrete.

ICE raids are starting on Tuesday in Chicago.

Yell “ICE” and “LA MIGRA” to disrupt them. Notify people and use your privilege as a citizen to make ICE’s job as difficult as possible.

Fascism has been here. It’s just loud now. Time to be loud too.
