Got myself a sweet treat. Going to eat it in ritual fashion like I am a god of old and it was placed on my altar

I keep coming back to this video essay

The simulacrum of feminine performance | explored through The Substance

Especially the concept of a simulacrum. This idea of hyper-reality.

Of course of how it pertains to gender but also how it seeps our way into so much of our culture. We're so separated from our inherent existence and instead who we are is filtered through several layers of society

I haven't spent enough time considering this in the depth I would like to write a full analysis of these concepts and how they apply to me and others but I've got so many seeds of thoughts around this topic.

I think eventually I might write a personal essay on how the simulacrum of womanhood affects me as a nonbinary person, especially one who's autistic and struggles with a social identity. I think there's so much to explore on this topic

I am going to get even louder about my beliefs, to my friends, my family, to strangers, on the internet. I am a punk. I believe in trans rights, gay rights, equality for all sexes, freedom from gender norms, the right for any person to do whatever the fuck they want with their own bodies. Abortion is a human right. I respect pronouns. I believe in science and the impending climate collapse we are heading towards if we don't change everything (which I doubt we will) I'm queer and neurodivergent. I'm getting a degree in environmental science because I want to make a difference.

I also feel incredibly hopeless right now, I want to do so much but I don't know where to start besides sharing information on the internet. It's not enough, I need to go out and make a difference but I'm barely keeping my head afloat. This is what the system is designed to do. Keep us barely surviving so we can't organize against them.

I don't know where to go from here but I do know I'm not going to stop fighting. And neither should you. This is not going to be an easy fight and many people will lose their lives. We cannot stop fighting.

Don't forget disabled people, don't forget queer people, don't forget people of color, don't forget immigrants, don't forget all the people who will die because they can't get abortions. don't forget the people who are going to be the most impacted by this.

"But billionaires' wealth is not cold hard cash."

You fully admit that money is a completely made up concept, but we allow people to starve and live on the street because they don't have enough money, even though there exists enough food and housing for everyone?

A drawing I made a month ago that I'm still struggling with, and maybe a lot of people would relate to as well.

For me it's about my gender in conflict with my body, about the struggles of being someone with a menstrual cycle, the expectations people have of me because I'm perceived as a woman, mental health, and my asexuality. And it's about anything you see in it too.
