If you're not familiar, she's from my webcomic... Rain, a coming-of-age dramedy about a young trans girl trying to be seen as herself in high school. After an 11 year run, the story is over, but I still do a lot with her. ^_^

Please, check it out!

hello mastodon!

i'm aderonke, i'm a Nigerian queer woman in her 30s just about living her life and trying to be herself. currently living somewhere in white-dominated western european country

i used to be on the network, but got chased off by the sheer audacity of yt ppl.. but i'm giving you a chance again.. my friend told me this place is relatively safe from privileged bs..

my hobbies are mostly #sewing #reading #cooking, but i tend to post more about fat liberation and blk body positivity... hope i can meet some likeminded folks.

i welcome everyone except those who want to police me on my thoughts and words. keep that audacity to yourself.

please let me know how much did it change in this place since 2023... eager to hear especially from fellow blk ppl

David Graeber and Andrej Grubačić, in an introduction to Mutual Aid:

"When Mutual Aid was first released, in 1902, there were few scientists courageous enough to challenge the idea that capitalism and nationalism were rooted in human nature or that the authority of states was ultimately inviolable. Most who did were written off either as crackpots or, if they were too obviously important to be dismissed in this way, like Albert Einstein, as "eccentrics" whose political views had about as much significance as their unusual hairstyles. The rest of the world though is moving along. Will the scientists -- even, possibly, the social scientists -- eventually follow?

We write this introduction during a wave of global popular revolt against racism and state violence, as public authorities spew venom against "anarchists" in much the way they did in Kropotkin's time. It seems a peculiarly fitting moment to raise a glass to that old "despiser of law and private property" who changed the face of science in ways that continue to affect us today. [...]

We find ourselves -- once again -- surprised by just how deeply we agree with its central argument. The only viable alternative to capitalist barbarism is stateless socialism, a product, as the great geographer never ceased to remind us, "of tendencies that are apparent now in the society" and that were "always, in some sense, imminent in the present."

To create a new world, we can only start by rediscovering what is and has always been right before our eyes.

Kropotkin was a biologist. May we come close to the kind of radical ideas he brought to the world in anything we do.

Thanks to @nobonzo for this beautiful illustrated copy of mutual aid

I got to swear fealty to "the new Queen of white people" today. She was in white-face with her titties pasted over with white duct tape.

Oh I see Disqordia showed up!

The news will call fucking anything it doesn't like "violent". The most violent thing at the DNC the past week was probably my tummy ache. I guess there were the people who breached the security barrier, but nobody got hurt. Cops just arrested people because they could.

People just like depicting Chicago as a "dangerous place" because of barely-concealed bigotry, classism, and hatred of people with substance abuse problems.

There was a great pasted up alert I saw a few times warning newbies that the safety vests were "unpaid CPD interns" lmao

🚨 THANK YOU EVERYONE! 🏡

we've reached our goal and will be paying rent at the end of the week once funds finish processing

other good news that happened today, i set up two more interviews for tomorrow and friday

thanks again everyone for the boosts and donations!
