my advice for sad teens:do everything u can to avoid making sadness ur aesthetic!! if u attach too much of ur identity 2 melancholy, it makes it that much harder to relearn ur worth as something that lies outside the barrier of ur suffering.
I love u.

I feel so grateful for the women I've known who live wholly outside of the desire for male approval. They have male friends. They like men just fine. But they live entirely for themselves and I'm so grateful for those examples.my kingdom for stories with protagonists like these, yesssss #mswl

For @Hazlitt, a piece two years in the making, I wrote about gender and the word “tomboy”: hazlitt.net/feature/betwee… pic.twitter.com/Gm7HCMiopci grew up embracing the term "tomboy" and its related aesthetics because it was the only way i had to express my rejection of traditional gender roles. this fantastic essay is probing, necessary, and calls into question why labels, while divisive, can be empowering as well. #MSWL

@whimsicallyours @agentsaba @RaeLoverde Omg lol. I actually wasn’t a big Zutara or Kataang shipper. I liked Zutara better but Katara felt like more of a mothering/big sister tole to them than romantic to me. Which is why her thing with Aang was weird 🤢BUT BUT LOOK AT THIS

stories where the pain and labor of communication between two people in an intimate relationship is palpable; that capture the ease and comfort that belies that inevitable, seemingly insurmountable distance between them. #mswl

MUSLIM CHARACTERS
CAN BE PROUD OF

THEIR MUSLIM IDENTITIES
AND NOT BE
VERY CONSERVATIVE

YES, there is a storied history of queer cis women, lacking the literary foundation or social space to be queer & women at the same time, writing queer cis men. this is a function of oppression & DOES NOT HAVE TO PERSIST. we can do better. we can build the canon we didn't get.yes yes yes and #MSWL
