The Thing I Was Thinking The Most While Watching Conclave Was Actually A Classmate I Had In Uni Who Is

The thing I was thinking the most while watching Conclave was actually a classmate I had in uni who is a nun. She talked about the role of women on the church and how there should be a woman pope. And like, years ago she was given a scholarship to study philosophy in Rome, except she couldn't. Because the nuns had to perform all the domestic labor for the priests and the workload was too big, add to that stuff like how no one could leave the dinner table before the archbishop and he liked to talk so sometimes he would make everyone stay until late at night and ofc the nuns had to clean up after that, or when the priests wanted to give the nuns an easy day they would decide they would have a picnic, but the nuns still had to prepare their picnic. My friend just couldn't find the time to study, so she dropped her scholarship and came back to Mexico.

And Conclave does such a good job of making this work visible, even when if only Sister Agnes speaks, there is always shots of nuns working. For everything the priests do, it's always shown how the nuns make it possible. Benítez standing out early on for being the one person to thank them. The film ending on a seemingly unrelated shot of nuns walking.

It's a very poignant statement given how reproductive labor is often invisibilized.

As someone who has worked in the queer community for a long time, you need to be careful of the people who stretch the reality of scarcity in our community to fit their agendas of making money off of our community.

A major sign of snake oil salesmen is someone saying they are not just the best, but the only option. This is made more believable in marginalized communities, where we are genuinely seeing a lack in resources, but a lack is not the same as an emptiness. As someone who studies queer history, let me say this: queer people (and other marginalized groups) have been fighting to provide for each other and their future for much longer than you'd expect.

There are resources. They aren't always spread equally or easily accessible, but there are more resources than some people want you to believe.

Don't let less get mistranslated into absence. Generation after generation of queer people have fought to make sure there was something for us. Do not let someone disrespect this work by claiming they are the first and only queer person to do something. If someone claims to be a first or only, fact check that. While firsts deserve celebration, we should be grateful to live in a world where they are more rare than they used to be.

Hi everyone, i was asked by Nader @abdalsalam1990 to draw my character asking you to donate, please help out Nader and his family, he is just 17, he should not be forced to be asking artists and anybody who listens to do charity work for him, he should be having fun enjoying his childhood and studying, which is impossible now due to the genocide happening to him and his people.

We have talked extensively and the pictures, videos and experiences he has shared with me are haunting but his unending kindness and good heart is not broken. Please, help out if you can, and if you cannot share this and encourage others to share. Thank you so much and i hope for the best.

Reblogs are appreciated, and free palestine.

Another fundraiser which is in urgent need of your support is that of Hazem Albardawil. The affects of the war on his life have been devastating.

A photo of Hazem. He is a young man with dark hair and light colored eyes. He is photographed lying in bed with two toddlers, his two sons.
A photo of the same man, Hazem, but he is now sleeping in a hospital bed. His face is covered in bruises. His eye sockets are a deep purple. He is covered in yellow sheets with a leaf pattern.

(ID in Alt)

In one horrible, traumatic day in October 2023, Hazem lost everything. He had a pregnant wife and two beautiful sons, Imad and Jad (photographed above), and when Israel bombed their home, they were martyred and he survived but with severe injuries and lasting emotional trauma.

This war has completely devastated the life of this man, and all he wants is to be able to get treatment for his injuries, survive this horrific genocide, and carry on his life in spite of these cruel circumstances that he's been placed in.

He is raising £20,000 but he has less than £500 as of the time I am writing this post. Any help you can give him will go to saving his life.
