Classickore - Going Stupid

there are good things left. there are good things coming. there are good things waiting for you. whoever you are, wherever you are, however you are, it can and it will get better.

Just because I'm up thinking at 3:33am

Go ahead and reblog to share that wealth. Good morning, y'all!!!

Wait wait WAIT! What are the manifestation tips? I’m tryna get like you 👀

The most important one was the scripting. Every day, starting August 1st, I made a list in my journal of everything I wanted. Like so (not my real list):

1. I will make new friends that are loyal, ambitious, and independent by September 2020.

2. I will learn French and be completely fluent by 2022.

I’d write my entire list, and I’d allow myself to tweak them as necessary as the days go on. For example, I might add to the first one a week later “my new friends will introduce me to higher circles and we will help each other move upwards in society.” After I write them all out, then I would repeat them out loud. This is the most important part in my opinion! The Bible says that the tongue holds power over life and death, and that whatever we ask for in truth we will receive. Even if you don’t subscribe to the faith, I highly recommend reading the Bible. Lots of nuggets of wisdom in there! Anyway, I say the list out loud. Throughout the day, I try to work it into conversations with other people so that my goals don’t stay with me only. For example, if a family member asks what you’ve been up to, you can say “I’m learning French. I want to be completely fluent by 2022.” For those who subscribe to the faith, after each recitation I also pray on my manifestations and ask God not only to allow me to be at peace with His divine timing, but also to prepare me into a woman who is ready to handle and accept the responsibilities that come with what I’m asking for. You can simply meditate also!

About halfway through the month, I changed the list from future tense to past/present tense. So my new list looked more like this:

1. I made new friends in September 2020. They are loyal, ambitious, and independent.

2. I’ve been completely fluent in French since 2022.

I still did the recitations, prayers, and conversations, but I spoke about them and thought about them as if they were something that already came to pass.

On the new moon (I think August 18th), I wrote a journal entry. I dated it August 18th and wrote as if the thing I was manifesting was my current life. It could look something like this:

“I went to lunch with the girls today and Amanda introduces us to her sister-in-law Kayla. She’s a CEO of her own company and her husband is the founder of a Fortune 500 company. I recognized her because she was recently featured in Forbes magazine. She’s very funny and beautiful, and she fit in with the group really well. We hit it off and when I explained that I was trying to find investors for my own business, she invited us all to an event her husband’s company is hosting in Paris! She seemed sure that there would be investor potential there and she promised to personally introduce me to as many people as she could. The rest of lunch quickly became about travel plans, schedules, and wardrobes. We’d all leave on the 12th of September on her husband’s private jet and meet him in Paris. We bought our hotel tickets right then and there then followed up lunch with a preemptive shopping trip. I’m so glad I became fluent in French all those years ago!”

That was a bit lengthy, but the idea is to be as specific as possible. When I finished, I folded up the paper, went outside at nighttime, and buried it into the ground. Literally, I planted the seed. On the next full moon, I think I’m going to write out any limiting beliefs I’m holding onto that would hinder my goals and then burn it.

But yeah. That’s what I’m doing, and I’ve really been seeing results. Doing things this way not only puts your intention out into the universe, but it also forces you to speak your intentions into existence, think about them constantly, and make decisions that align with those intentions over those that don’t (i.e. doing another French lesson over watching a fifth episode of Doom Patrol in a row).

Black Trans Women Want People To Say Their Names — While They’re Alive

"Everybody takes to the streets, and they rally, they protest. But where was that same energy when that lady was alive?"

Black trans sex workers’ rights activists say they are fighting for their lives.

In the midst of a generational reckoning over systemic racism that has coincided with a pandemic and Pride Month, the killings of two Black trans women — Dominique “Rem’mie” Fells and Riah Milton — within just 24 hours and the brutal beating of another have fueled protests and demands for action on the specific ways that racism and police violence affect the LGBTQ community.

Black trans people are more likely than their white counterparts to face employment discrimination and housing insecurity, and criminalization for their gender presentation under statues that permit police to profile people they think may be engaging in sex work. A staggering number of Black trans people — nearly half, according to a 2011 study from the National Center for Transgender Equality and the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force — have also been incarcerated.

Those who sell sex face even greater criminalization and the possibility of violence at both the hands of the police and their clients.

With historic protests for Black Trans Lives in Brooklyn and around the country on Sunday and a 6–3 decision from the Supreme Court making employment discrimination against queer and trans people illegal, there is growing momentum for change. But even as recently as Friday, the Trump administration attempted to undo protections for healthcare for trans people, and advocates say that policy progress — like a bill to repeal what’s called the “walking while trans ban” that has moved slowly in the New York state legislature — is still falling short.

good things will happen 🧿

things that are meant to be will fall into place 🧿

Would also be really annoying if they wore heat resistant gloves to throw back the hot tear gas canisters and if this got shared to all those protesting…
