Amazing.

The creators of ideas are in such a privileged situation that they see choices of food as a luxury. They can’t even imagine a situation where the price of foods are an issue for someone.

Remember that they’re doing this at the same time they’re pushing bug meat and cockroach milk as a good thing. 

Remember that while journalists and politicians eat filet mignon and lobster, they’re making ordinary meat more expensive for us.

Remember that these two things are related.

For World AIDS Day, we remember those we lost and recommit to fighting for those who are still living. Remember not only the cis/straight/white/male/rich/western/etc who have died due to complications of HIV/aids, but also those not on the quilt, those who were not remembered. Mourn the sex workers, the trans women, those who died on the streets, those who died deep in addiction, those who died alone. Mourn the activists, the friends, the brothers. Mourn the forgotten, the ones who had no one to care for them, those who live in places where medicine isn’t accessible, where HIV has such a social stigma that they can’t even try to get medicine.

Fight for the living! Be mad at the government, at Ronald Reagan, George Bush, Margaret Thatcher, be mad at society as a whole. The US government ignored the AIDS crisis, but the US government isn’t the only government to be mad at. Be mad that we lost a whole generation of LGBT people because of our governments, be mad for their families, their friends. Be mad that so many people are still dying, globally.

Today is a day to be mad, to mourn, to curse the government, to curse Ronald Reagan. Keep this history alive. Remember the dead, but fight like hell for the living.

and you know what?

  • it’s okay if you didn’t write today
  • it’s okay if you didn’t outline either
  • it’s okay if you prioritized other things
  • it’s okay if you didn’t update others on your progress
  • it’s okay if you haven’t been active
  • it’s okay if you haven’t reached your intended word count
  • it’s okay if you haven’t been feeling your best recently
  • it’s okay if you haven’t been creating as much as you used to

it’s going to be okay. you’re going to be okay.

as you get older, you realize that you’re not always right and there’s so many things you could’ve handled better, so many situations where you could’ve been kinder and all you can really do is forgive yourself and let your mistakes make you a better person.
