*people Choose To Kneel During The National Anthem To Peacefully Protest Police Brutality*

Hello! 

I have created The Dark Room Collective for POC’s to come together to make bonds and to collaborate on books, poems, and more! 

Once a month we will have discussion about that book of the month, with have biweekly poems/short stories/plays to talk about also. Members of the collective are encouraged to give suggestions and vote on polls; that will have 3-5 books to vote from. 

How do I join? 

Please message me! I will send the link through private message.

Reminder

I know we all have lives as do I, but try to stay active in the chat. We don’t want a dead server or the server going to sh*t. 

REBLOG! 

i may not have a “brain” or an “ability to write well” but sometimes i type out a great metaphor and all

Posting on Tumblr is like talking to your cat. You don’t know if they are listening, and you don’t know if they care, but for some reason, it still helps.

New rule, non muslims can’t say the word jihad. Until you stop conflating a word that means personal struggle with faith and temptation with terrorism youre just not allowed to say it.

so to any of my dyslexic followers, i learned something new today that was actually really helpful that i didn’t know before so i’d thought i’d share it to help out anyone who needs it.

personally, reading white text on a black page is best for me but it may be different for others!!

love you all <3
