I actually love this photo @nietodickens took of @disssgrace and I, but there was a moment where I hesitated about posting it because of... things that fat girls think about all the time, the concept of what's "flattering" and what isn't. Over the past decade+, I've done a lot of unlearning about these notions and how to not just love my fatness but be proud of it and be proud of who I am as a queer fat femme. In spite of this, every now and then these insidious thoughts creep back in because at the end of the day, we live in a society that glorifies thin, white, cisgender, "able" bodies and insists on reminding us of that at every turn. Then I remembered that my body, my face, my double chin (and yours) are all fine and beautiful and worthy of love the way they are, so don't 👏🏼 forget 👏🏼 that 👏🏼

Still reeling from meeting the iconic @watanabenaomi703 on Sunday at @bubble____t! I remember seeing her in ads on the subway when I was in Tokyo and feeling seen in a way I rarely experience. She was so sweet to @disssgrace and I. 🌸 And thank you @bubble____t for creating a space that consistently draws in a crowd of wonderful people and makes me feel at home. 💕💕💕

I don't think my followers know much about this, but I'm on the board of an incredible organization called the @3wavefund. Third Wave is the rare kind of philanthropic organization that takes $$ and directs it towards the grassroots orgs led by QTPOC, young folks, sex workers, etc. and trusts that they know how to use those funds to best lead a movement for gender justice. I started working at 3W in 2011 and it has been my home ever since. It's where I learned to embrace my identity as a fat femme, as a queer POC, and as a leader. At the core of 3W's beliefs is the notion that *we* are the leaders we are looking for. Since we all live in a capitalist, heteronormative, patriarchal society it took time for that message to sink in but here we are! We may have hit our #GiveOUTday goal, but (at the link in bio) I encourage you to give to 3W and put your $ towards building a movement we thought we could only dream of. 💕💕💕

lol how many people do you think I'm fooling into thinking I really have green hair and flawless vision 😩🤓
Deeply feeling this quote from @bunnymichael today: "The system commercializes romantic love because we are much easier to control in nuclear family units. Platonic love, self love, love for community, love for chosen family, love for humanity—that is the LOVE that will set us free." Photograph by my very dear @disssgrace. 💕
