And now I'm dropping any pretense of machismo, and crying like a baby.
22 years ago I stood in the Tate Britain in front of the painting “Carnation Lily, Lily Rose,” sobbing (in public!) because I was going through the only shot at IVF I would ever get and didn’t know if I’d ever have a baby. Today my daughter Lily texted me from in front of the same painting.

idk how to explain this but the fact that this is Minnesota and the neighbours are standing right there heckling instead of helping is an act of war
This morning in Minneapolis, an ICE vehicle got stuck on an icy hill in a residential neighborhood. Agents had to push the vehicles out, some almost slipping in the ice themselves.

More people are going to be murdered by ICE. It’s clear. The tactics ensure it, ICE is getting more furious and being disagreed with or resisted in any way, the verminous administration supports them and has shown they will tell any lie to support ICE murdering people.

If nothing else, self-care is an act of resistance. It's our duty to what we love and seek to protect.
A little self-kindness today goes a long way. You’re allowed to nourish yourself first. 🌿✨💜

I try to keep a firewall between my spiritual accounts and those that allow politics and news. Sometimes the politics and news grows higher than that wall and the shit comes tumbling in.

Certain lanes force you to straddle two worlds. You walk with modernity of Dutch elm disease, pylon hum on one side, the other full of gates into ancient fields, the ghosts of old hedge witches. Despite this polarity, you never get a sense of the lane picking a side.– #MattAdams, 1981

Unfortunately they have all the training they need to do exactly what the government wants them to do. State-sponsored terror is their entire purpose, it always has been. This is where the contradictions within a settler colonial society built on extraction and exploitation were inevitably leading
ice agents simply aren't trained well enough to be on the street. they are a genuine danger to citizens

What's the most ridiculous way you ever hurt yourself? I got out of the tub, skidded in water and tripped over the toilet. Ankle sprain.

I know it doesn't seem like it because the forces-that-be want to suppress any possibility of hope, but there are so many people out there working day and night to build us all a better future.

Please don't give up. 💜 Every day you give back to your community, you make a difference, too.

"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Today I'd like to see beautiful art, read wise words, and try to find balance in the midst of my country starting a war.

Looking up from our front porch: a line of boulders, a line of black locust trees, the road above, a house above that. A glorious new year to all.

I'm new to spirituality and the craft. My wife is so excited for me that when she learned about Sabbats and the Wheel of the Year, she decided to surprise me with a wheel of the year for Christmas.

No one has ever done anything like this for me.

While I haven't taken them like aspirin (some psychedelics tend to give me dark journeys), they helped me by dismantling some of the mental structure that trauma built. This process is intrusive, disturbing, difficult, and was, ultimately, the path to much freedom.
Do we actually have the tools to deal with the can of worms psychedelics will likely open when taken as regularly as aspirin?

I am at the age my father was when he developed "late onset paranoid schizophrenia." He heard voices, thought people were trying to kill him, and believed in powers that don't exist. He invented an engine that, actually could NOT run on plain water.

I'm about 90 days into my spiritual awakening.
