    anarchafeminism
    "anarcha-feminism means being against all oppression, domination, and authority, but focussing on gender oppression, not because it is most important, but because it affects so many of us and must be dealt with. i say gender oppression instead of just patriarchy or sexism because i think feminism needs to be broader than just women's issues. gender oppression includes patriarchy, sexism, homophobia, heterosexism, heteronormativity, transphobia, the gender binary, fatphobia + other body image issues, sexual violence, etc." - sally darity

    ok just a general vent about oppression in our society

    i aws buying a book off trade me, i think it was about transcending gender, it had the word "lesbian" in the title, i was paying for it via internet banking, so i typed in the books title as a refernce
    the transaction would not be processed cos apparently "lesbian" is inappropriate language
    disgusted i rang the bank, and the person who answered the phone ,had me on hold for awhile and then came back and apologised about ten times, and said all the higher up in the hierarchy bosses were apalled blah blah blah


    my other bitch is he male ego, i was doing a shift in the store yesterday and i was just being friendly but i think i might have scared a guy off the shop, from the store which is stupid and completely his problem, cos i wasnt being weird friendly but it made me think about past friendships with males and how sometimes when as a female trying to be friends with a guy they sometimes seem to think you're interested in being more than friends-
    !!!!!!!!!!!!!1

    read an intersting/funny book yesterday, not quite sure what to make of it, called the SCUM manifesto.
    SCUM stands for the society for cutting up men, it was written by the woman who tried to kill andy warhol,
    she sounded like a real interesting character

    i've gotten my first exam result back and i got an A- which is the best ive ever done at uni
    being virtually straight edged (no alcohol, drugs etc) i think has helped quite a lot, cos last time i went to uni i used to go to class sometimes still drunk or tripping from the night before and if i was stoned or coming down i used to get this paranoia in my head that their was heaps of little voices cheeping in gaps of silence

    quick tired rant
    sometimes i dislike email as i find it an useless way of communicating to people what i mean but thats probably just me as i dont think its just emailbut the way i try to say things, maybe its a form of verbal dyslexia, is there such a thing. my scar was hurting today, maybe im turning into harry potter, yeah whatever
    watched a very boring movie, so bad i cant remember what it was called
    also watched "canadian bacon" funny sorta
    at the mo im on too many email lists so have a million emails to get thru each..............

    trying to find the flow of words again-sometimes there too many words in my head i could just rant and rage inside all night-like about all the stupid stuff people do sometimes
    why do people think they need to be so disposable?
    people can manage w/o half the crap they think they need to consume/survive

    oh yeah and one of the cliche si find kinda annoying "people can believe whatever they want as long as they dont try and force their beliefs on others
    i told a friend once i was raising my tamahine vegan and she asked me "is that her choice" My daughter was 4 monthes old at the time

    someone was talking to me the other day/ how sometimes theres not much difference between environmental activism and facism in reply to a comment i made (this was in regards to compost toilets and how most people dont care and they like things that are quick and convenient
    i said something a long the lines of, if people have no other choices they will cope
    but what i really meant was that when people are put in situations they can cope with whatever comes there way, like if something happened to dunedins plumbing-people could cope with not having flush toilets i didnt mean that there should be laws and enforcements
    but a lot of it is to do with attituides and environments,


    i like sneezing sometimes its fun, unless im riding my bike and then it can be a pain
    i did a back flip today for the first time and ages and it was almost exhilaratring-jst to have the power to throw your body all thru the air-need to to do them more
    got free chocolate today from my susie ate it and have been studying some of adrienne riches essays
    am presently reading:
    Homestead by roina lippi (intersting set in austria)
    He tangi aroha by apirina taylor (not sure bout this yet
    ttyl by lauren someone (escapist pre teen candy in email form)

    and books for school
    moetime now- going to listen to my adbusters cd and moe

    au revoir

    Current Mood: indifferent
    Current Music: adbusters

    kia ora e hoa ma
    cool i thought this is exactly the kind of nerdy thing i will enjoy doing late at night when asleep i am lacking.
    even though i have a sore arm i have still managed to carry a sleeping six year old into bed, maybe my sore arm has magic powers or maybe not.i am asimply contemplating taku ringaringa
    how do i make macrons work?i'm learning te reo maori so hopefully my journal entries will get more and more bilingual so if i read this and dont understand some of it its probly cos i have not used any macrons-so as a reminder to myself-make educated guesses.
    well today i was busy..i went on "Hikoi ki Te Tapawaru" and it was really nice. hikoi ki Te Tapawaru means a walk to the octagon, it was a march organised in solidarity with the hikoi that was happening in Tamaki/Akarana/Auckland ... it was lovely and im pleased i got myself together in order to make it. i took photos-i need to remember to load them up on indymedia ......... cool website www.indymedia.org.nz

    then i went to a birthday picnic that nobody bought any food to, thats where i hurt my arm(taku ringaringa)
    have to stretch it now.......and then i saw my beautiful tamahine, who on this i will call Mingi because ""He whero me mingi tana huruhuru"" her hair is red and curly (an educated guess i havent learnt to say that properly yet

    ok im going now cos i have some very important things to work on........email some beautiful people and study and eat and sleep
