MORE NAMES TO KNOW
Tina Bell: frontwoman of the band Bam Bam, often called the Godmother of grunge because of its influence. Racism within the scene has led to her influence being pretty extensively erased but her bandmate and lifelong friend Scotty Buttocks has been working hard to counteract that by doing press and preserving their music here. Kurt fucking Cobain was their roadie
Betty Davis: 70s funk rock legend who just recently passed away. Incredibly unique performer that was way ahead of her time. Not to be confused with Bette Davis.
Sistah Grrrl Riots: A black punk collective put together in response to alienation and racism in the 90s punk and riot grrrl scenes. Organized by legends Tamar-Kali Brown, Honeychild Coleman, Maya Glick, and Simi Stone. You can read more about sistah grrrl in this article.
Ronnie Spector: Frontwoman of the Ronettes and rock n roll pioneer. Black girl groups were a huge influence on the sound of Rock n Roll as we know it from The Beatles to Led Zepplin to the Rolling Stones. She recently passed but her autobiography came out last year and it's worth the read.

yes i see that you're femme4butch, but do you recognize that being a safe space for butches comes before your attraction? how do you feel about butch4butch couples, or butch stone bottoms? do you give them the same level of respect as you do to butches who you find attractive? what about stone butches? do you see them as people, or as a outlet to receive sexual pleasure? do you enjoy butch friendship, or do you only hope to gain romantic attention?
what about femmes? do you look to build community with other femmes, or do you see them as competition to receive butch attention? do you understand butchfemme history and the history of your identity? and most importantly, do your prioritize community above your own attraction?
"i didn't know i was starving till i tasted you."
Here are some caitvi sketches I've had as header for a while!
fat people don’t have to be attractive either to deserve basic love and respect
If you don't believe that crystals can keep away negative people in your life you've obviously never thrown one hard enough, my personal favourite that i recommend is called brick
horsing around
oml literally this, all i’ve been doing is reblogging stuff bc every time i want to actually post smth i overthink it wayy too much 😭
Going from being an introverted lurker on reddit to trying to post my own stuff here is so wild. I keep typing out a post, deleting it, then retyping because I think it's not good enough but then I look at other posts and why am I so worried?
It's like I'm at a fancy Italian restaurant and keep glancing around the room to see which hand people use to pick up the forks. But then I realize that everyone is shoveling spaghetti into their mouths using their bare hands and I'm like ah okay so I'm clearly overthinking this
