my week in objects (mostly).
zines, strikes, and other things.
1. this stack of colored-in zines.
{and the friends who colored them in with me.}
2. this extra layer.*
{for keeping me cozy at my drafty desk this week.}
3. this blurry amaryllis.
{for finally starting to show just a glimmer of green.}
4. this show.
{for doing its part to radicalize the youth.}
5. this roll of parchment paper.
{for leading to a breakthrough.}
other things:
let us notice our own noticing.
why i’m not raising my kids to be independent.
birthing the world of our dreams into being right now.
believe that your words, actions, and even your feelings, matter and do compound.
the women’s changing room at the ymca is a portal.
*the khadi overshirt was a gift to me from the slow goods studio last year and it’s back and available for preorder!
I just forwarded that women at the ymca pool piece to my swim team bf. We were not thinking deeply about it as tweens and teen swimmers, but I completely recognized that feeling of a strange cross generational portal that is the women’s locker room. Love it.
Solidarity from across the pond
