worth remembering, David Lynch directed โfix your hearts or dieโ specifically at transphobes. it wasnโt a generic โno mean people allowedโ statement, it was said by his Twin Peaks character in defense of a trans woman he cared for and deeply respected.

If you have any mental health issue of some kind, at some point in your life this will happen:
Person: โha ha! Your Behavior! It is as though you have the Condition!โ
You: โwell yeah, I do have the Condition and I take The Medicine for it.โ
Person: โoh. Iโm uncomfortable now, which is your faultโ

UNFOLDING
If there is no spirit unfolding itself in history,
No gradual growth of consciousness
Beneath the land grabs and forced migrations,
The bought elections, the betrayal of trust
By party faction in the name of progress-
What about spirit in the personal realm
Unfolding slowly inside us, so slowly
That our best days seem like a holding action?
Seasons repeat themselves, but the tree
Shading the yard keeps growing.
Don't be chagrined that the sadness you felt
This evening beside the bed of a friend
Who's growing weaker wasn't more profound
Than the sadness of yesterday, that you still
Can't imagine a fraction of what he's feeling
As the world he loves slips from his grasp.
No progress from your perspective,
But who's to say what you might notice
If the scroll of the last few months were unrolled
On the table before you, how clear it might be
That your your understanding of all you're losing
In losing him has been slowly deepening?
Another day, you say to yourself, at dusk
As you climb your porch steps, which you notice
Could use some scraping and painting this weekend,
A fresh coat that with luck will last a year.
--Carl Dennis

Perry: This St. Patrickโs Day, donโt forget Irish musicโs anti-fascist roots
Dropkick Murphys, the iconic Irish American punk band, are headlining a free block party March 6 near where Alex Pretti was killed by immigration agents, contributing columnist David M. Perry writes.
NEW โWeโre celebrating a tradition that is at its core about resisting occupation and maintaining community in the face of horrors. You canโt keep politics out of Irish music. No one should try, for two reasons. First, itโs ahistorical. Second, Minnesotans are ready for a big anti-fascist party.โ

Line luplau seen in the foreground on her daughter Marie Luplau's large group portrait painting From the Early Days of the Fight for Women's Suffrage (1897).
An oil painting depicting a large indoor gathering of men and women in late 19th-century dress. A central standing figure โ an older woman in a long dark dress with a white lace collar โ commands attention, appearing to address or preside over the assembled group. To her left sits a younger woman at a table with papers and a glass vessel. The crowd behind and around them is densely arranged, faces rendered individually. The setting appears to be a meeting hall with gas lamps visible on the wall.

Screenshot of Untitled Goose Game in which the a child lies sprawled on the ground, his glasses knocked off his face, after the titular goose unties the boys shoes. The goose stands nearby taunting the child with a stolen toy airplane.
Stayed up much too late Saturday night replaying #UntitledGooseGame for the first time in a few years.
Absolutely wonderful experience even after all this time. I hope one day we get a proper sequel!

I heard stories of people who've fed crows, and been given gifts in return. It sounded charming, so I began doing that.
Then, one night, there was a rapping on my bedroom window. I stumbled up and opened.
A crow flew in and spoke: "They're coming for you. You must flee."
I only just made it out.

Hey.
Tell people when they do good job.
When you like the stuff they make.
When you like the characters theyโve created.
The stories theyโve told.
Nobody hears it as often as you think bc everyone thinks everyone hears it all the time.
Trust. They donโt.
Tell. Them.

Post-Pillion: the Kink Civil War

I really appreciated this breakdown and the way it structured the reviews I've been hearing from kinksters.

Fragment of an emaki from the 12th century Genji Monogatari. H 21.8 x W 23.4cm. Paper decorated with gold. The author of the painting belonged to the upper court during the Heian period; it would be Fujiwara Takashino or Takayoshi (่คๅ ้ ่ฝ,? 1126 -1174?).
The text is written in hiragana in the sลgana (่ไปฎๅ) cursive style โ an extremely fluid, abbreviated form that was considered the height of aristocratic elegance at the Heian court. It was known as onnade (ๅฅณๆ, "women's hand"), the feminine script associated with court literature, as opposed to the more formal Chinese-derived kanji used in official documents by men.
