my week in objects (mostly).

treats, tricks, and props.

1. last-min halloween crafts.

{esp one with a message.}

2. this belt.

{for coming in handy.}

3. these two straps.

{for saving my back.}

4. this big bowl.

{for serving breakfast.}

5. this $2 bill.

{every year, just for the kids from the street, everyone’s favorite treat.}

other things:

the clench in their heart when they take a few bites.

all roads point to selfish pragmatism.

mechanisms of sexist repression come in handy.

just say no to complinegs.

the smuggest sneer.

storing up as much energy as we can for whatever might come next. (nymag)

here’s hoping that on Tuesday, the joke will be on them.

PS: If you’re in New York City, come join me and Rose for a paper and fabric box workshop at Primary Essentials on November 10.
