Meme History:
Consent Certified Memes

Picture
This "Oppression & Chill" meme was made in the penultimate moment of a multi-month targeted harassment campaign in 2016. It continues to occasionally circulate to this day. I am looking to be connected my queer community of love instead.

If you have laughed at or shared this meme in hate or disgust, and have since adjusted your opinions to be more inclusive, I would appreciate any compensation or support you can give as retribution.

If it just pisses you off and you have the means to do so, I would also appreciate your help, though I recommend you check out my poetry books, the Patella Tarot or find more art stuff under "THINGS" in the header to get a little more bang for your buck!

History of a meme,
taking back my story

Becoming a meme has the potential to change ones life, dramatically. Unfortunately, being used as an Alt-Right hate meme had it's downsides, though I think they are just afraid of paying me any attention now, because the moment someone takes me seriously, shits gonna get real, real fast.
​
I definitely withdrew a lot of my online presence for a period of time and held back my opinions out of fear of being, exactly who they accuse me of being. I was being called autistic by trolls before I even had my own formal diagnosis and confidence in understanding who I was. To be frank, I was targeted at one of the worst points in my life, I was fleeting suicidal thoughts and fighting to reclaim my sense of self in the world, such that I might become unshakeable (it is ok to shake, actually).

One of the most unjust elements I will point to is the sheer lack of citation, which I can understand the world wanting to "protect me" from attention, but frankly, others don't have the right to make that choice for me, nor fade the human being I am into obscurity. I have been seen by millions so I will be known by millions. My story, my pace, my time.

If you have have ever used my face in a video and especially referenced me without first talking to me, I expect conversation. I look forward to being contacted and sharing my perspectives with those willing to hold space for my complexity of self and to listen to my experiences. Audience holders, this is a call to action to you to rightfully utilize your social capital.

Monthly Support in my PROCESS is also greatly appreciated, as it further enables me to speak my truth, heal, and reclaim my life.
