I've learned that when you make a major change in your life, whether it's pursuing a new vocation/calling, or starting a new spiritual practice, or what have you, life will inevitably throw obstacles at you. There will be contingencies you could never have prepared for, because you've not been down this road before.

I used to think this is the universe telling me to alter course, but now I think of it as the universe giving me a dialog box: "Are you sure?"

If I am sure, then staying determined, continuing to learn and grow and push beyond comfort zones, and refining my approach as I go, is how I click on the Yes-button. Doing what I know I need to do to keep on this path, even on days when I don't feel like doing it, is how I click on that button.

There's no shame in changing your mind and altering course again. Clicking on the No-button and doing something else because you aren't sure is also acceptable option, and absolutely no one has a right to tell you one way or another which button you should choose.

It's also okay not to know which button to choose and to ask for advice. We none of us are alone in this journey.

Remember kids, whenever someone asks for a design (or whatever, really) that must be used by a company ALWAYS add the the price for commercial rights.

ALWAYS.

#GetFediHired

It really says a lot when a lot of hateful ass white people get so mad about a fucking fictional character being Black

but meanwhile the kids are just fucking happy that there is someone on the fucking screen that looks like them.

I'll never understand, its fucking embarrassing seeing full grown ass adults throwing fits

Times are changing and white people really need to catch up. Not everyone in media has to fucking be boring and bland white people.

Our tail is so large that if we did the cute skirt twirl thing, we could look cute while sending something into orbit.

You can just block your racist mutual

You can just block that racist instance

It's free and the cops cannot stop you

You cannot have whiteness without white supremacy, the constructs are fundamentally linked.
The only way out is to realize that it is not about you, it was never about you, and your time and energy would be better spent fighting injustice, rather than by feeling threatened by racial justice.
