every time i have a thought i go into a spiral???

Ganja & Hess (1974)

what a great day to remember that we should not colonize mars, the whole concept is anthropocentric, imperialist, unrealistic and just weird, and the idea of establishing the same capitalistic systems that have turned out to be our downfall on another planet instead of solving problems on earth is so incredibly short-sighted and power fantasy driven that it makes me want to eat glass. the exploration of outer space should always be expressively and only for the benefit of all humankind, not to fill the pockets of some billionaires with a god complex. fuck elon musk all my homies hate elon musk

so many black people i know - friends, family, etc - talk about breaking generational curses but… when u ask them about their beliefs regarding:

the LGBTQ+ community

fat people

disabled people

womens rights

reproductive rights

wealth inequality

etc…

they have the same old reductive view points their parents had and so on… what generational curses could u possibly be ending if u believe there are only 2 genders? or if u believe that black capitalism will save/protect the black community? what generational curses are u ending if u still think vaccines cause autism? if u still think hitting children is how u discipline them? like… i cant take it seriously.

u dont actually want to break generational curses. just saying it aloud over and over doesnt mean ur doing the necessary work to end generational curses. ur literally going to pass down the same traumatizing shit we was raised to believe in.

Josephine Baker (1920).
