I realize that reincarnation is unrealistic, goes against reality. This is because we are not created for this world, which is why we need not fear death. And, since we are not made for this world, the concept of reincarnation is null and void, for we would simply continue to be born into a world we are not meant for.
I’m no stranger to stomping around the UN. Happy blessed birthday to Omi’s friend Elke! After a tour of the UN today, I was left perturbed and pondering. It brings back fun memories of being the child and grandchild of employees of the German Mission. I asked the tour guide what the UN does in scenarios such as Russia pummeling its gay population, given the international declaration of human rights. She told me since each country is still sovereign, the rights and ideas of the UN can only be used as suggestions, reminders, for the countries. The UN is basically a liberal federation, and the tour guides must gloss over and only explain the ideal that the UN is meant to be. I wonder why a nation should be allowed to join, when unwilling to go along with all the ideas of human rights it lays out. I also pondered, since the UN marks the Holocaust rather as its catalyst, and speaks of the Rwandan Genocide which occurred later, what have they to say about Turkey’s membership, and this growing knowledge of a pre-Holocaust genocide geared towards Armenians, inflicted by Turks. How do they face that? Is it of any consequence?Germany is not a permanent seated member of the UN, and that is to be expected since when the UN was founded, Germany was considered the vile and defeated enemy. You could expect years of fighting to become the 6th permanent member, amongst the ranks of the US, Russia, France, Great Britain, and China, but to no avail. But seriously, in this day and age, a federation of peace allowing perilous China still to be a permanent member, but not Deutschland?
The UN is a highly dressed up dream. But you can wonder what the world might be like if it didn’t exist.
People can tell you they don’t care about your gender identity without saying a word. That is the power of silence. And I realize what I’m writing can go in 2 directions.
One-dimensional people when it comes to their own gender, incessantly misgendering you.
Pretty boy
I like your nails
You make me nervous
You make me jump
I like the way you move
and strut your stuff
Pretty boy
I like your hair
Would love to run my fingers there
I like how you spoke
and where I could stick myself, you told
Pretty boy
I’m not enough
I know I’m not what you want
My eyes see you for but a minute
But eyes don’t lie when they see
a beautiful spirit
I’ve been rejected in this place, before
Eyes don’t lie
At least you made me to smile
To say goodbye can mean to cry
I cannot lie, I do regret
I’ve met you, but we never truly met; never did we truly connect
for there’s something blinding you to my eye
But we must say goodbye because still
there’s something binding you to my life
We’d rather not regret, we all seek to connect
I wait now for what comes next
Now that we have said goodbye
And yes it makes me cry
Even if this farewell is something good
I never know what I’ll do
But still, I can see you in my life
how can suicide be a moral sin, if you are not given the chance to confess it and be sorrowful for it?
The greatest stance you can take against something that offends you is to walk out, depending on the scenario.
I’m leaving the movie theater now, after torturing myself trying to see a Tom Cruise movie. He’s over the hill and too much of a celebrity to be funny in a movie. I don’t need to see an almost 60 year old guy trying to pass for 40 in the movie, come home and fuck his wife doggie style while they have 2 small children. Such sexual portrayals take away from the movie and always make me feel vulnerable and assaulted. I think that natural born males feel over confident because of what they can “do to a woman sexually”, and women are never shown “doing something to a man” to elicit sexual noise from him. So you have this one sidedness in sex, that makes the sexual act look like a war zone and the men are the power. I think it’s this treatment of the heterosexual sexual act that pushes people like Natalie and myself, gender non-conforming persons and transgender males, to continue on as we are even more ardently. It may be why we are as we are, or we are this way by nature but it only makes us want to be it more. Fuck heteronormative behavior in movies and male sexual dominance.
To Rep Gabby Giffords and her husband who stated that “Your prayers aren’t going to stop nor help the next shooting”, and all the Democratic representatives in this article who have dismissed prayer, I say to you, YOU KNOW NOT WHAT OUR PRAYERS HAVE PREVENTED FROM HAPPENING. And Rep Gabby, should no one have prayed for your healing? You’re healed now, right, and people prayed for you, I presume? And, do we say the same for Puerto Rico, all the islands, and 3rd-world countries? Prayer will never help them?
