Before I really knew about/understood polyamory, i used to sit and feel kinda sad at the idea of only having one really deep/intimate relationship with someone my entire life, unless of course my partner and I split or someone dies 🙃 because I love my first partner and would never want anything bad to happen to us (like obviously life happens and I’ll roll with it right) the idea of loving someone, and being limited just felt wrong and sad. So when I did learn more about polyamory, I knew that someday I might want to live/love that way. And I’m so happy and feel so lucky to be in the situation I am now. I really feel like I’ve learned more about myself and am more like the person I want to be, a person with a lot of love to give and receive.
kids are so fucking funny. we made pride flags with the elementary schoolers and a fifth grader added a gray stripe to the progress pride flag and when i asked him what it was for he said “for the emos”

Because they did it in my name. They did it for the prosperity of their descendants. But I don’t want any benefits conferred through slavery. I know it’s impossible for me to shed every single advantage that my ancestry affords me, but the least I could do is examine it. Be critical of it, to be as proactive as possible when it comes to the whole ‘not being complicit in historical atrocities’ thing. As a person of considerable privilege, I consider it my responsibility because my privilege will try to make me complicit by default.“]
