A quote from ladyatheist (via ellesugars)

(Source: mamaatheist)

"If you are a white woman and you want to call yourself a feminist, you must acknowledge that your whiteness affords you a privilege that shields you from a lot. You must also acknowledge that you are afforded privileges that some men in this country do not have. Racism and sexism are tightly intertwined. You cannot fight one while ignoring the other."

One of my favorite fairy tale figures is Baba Yaga, an old witch who lives in an enchanted forest, rides a mortar instead of a broom, lives in a house with chicken legs and usually has three magical sons. I have an obsession with witches in general, but something about this old Russian spell caster really captures my imagination. 
I think one day i’d like to write about the adventures of her youth. How she became powerful and delightfully evil (although she is good in a couple of tales). So, here you go, young Baba Yaga (who would have a different name, since Baba means old woman. Maybe just Yaga?).

yesssssss

would totally read this. Baba Yaga was a favorite of mine when I was a child.

Today’s appointment to get the letter that will allow me to wrap up this process of transition doesn’t mean much in the grand scheme, actually. Just ink on paper.

Ink is nothing against the blood, sweat, and tears I’ve shed to get to this point; my efforts to get here have produced rivers that would wash away a hundred thousand letters. 

So in honor of my efforts and the support of those who helped me along this path, I dedicate this song by the beautiful Jill Scott to all radfems and transphobes, and anyone else who has tried to make it difficult for me to get to this point.

I’m still here, making it happen, living my life. Loving myself and being loved.
