One thing I’ve discovered while making these vlogs is that I take my sweet time while talking??! Why did nobody tell me? Anyway, so, x1.5speed it is… 😬
dreaming of other waters. 😌
I wore this lounge set three times this week. 😌
First, I have compiled this citation of intellectual lineage to give respect, and to offer resources for my community. Second, I can only recommend what I’ve personally already read, so this will lay bare my limitations but also establish my personal accountability to the things I share.

This year at Hot Docs, I watched “You Are The Days To Come” by Ronja Yu, full of precious archival footage from the late 70s and 80s of artists, activists and thinkers who were openly challenging the government, and who were part of the rising consciousness of organizing that led to the large crowds and demonstrations that we often reference and know only through the events of June 4th, 1989.
from an early afternoon in the clover with @patternsandportraits recently 😌

To cultivate a strength to support others. To cultivate a heart to embrace silence and slow contemplation. To cultivate an attitude to find true love and happiness.

☀️ Gradations I & II is a pair of riso graph printed illustrated poetry zines. Each zine is a single long poem where the speaker goes for a meandering walk and has a tender conversation with somebody. The landscape is real. Or not. The speaker is the same in both zines, but the stories are set a decade apart. Deposited all the relationships found, lost, and changed along the way, here we are nonetheless.
