Lolol, I love these kind of metrics being so accurate.

Yes!

I keep wondering how many other folk who desperately want to do things to help folk are being held back by treatable illness & poverty.

If we were all doing good we'd all be doing way better than we can currently imagine. Poverty is being done to us & not just hurting the impoverished.

If i can raise $20, I can buy birthday dinner and force my horrible work to reimburse me

Thanks Dani 🌻

So, I wanna see people sharing her GFM. I want people giving what they can. Please.

I am not saying this for shits and giggles: the internet you enjoy exists in part because of Trudy. Especially her scholarship on misogynoir and parasocial relationships. I sincerely believe the landscape doesn’t exist without her. Flowers aside, she is a human who needs care and support.

but I’m trying to use this new moon & the solstice to shift my perspective: Jobi and I can do this. it will be enough. I am safe and I can trust myself and this is my *home*.

Not a crappily maintained moldy house in Minneapolis. Not my parents’ basement in an HOA.

my home is a cabin in the forest.

this has been a big change for me to metabolize and I spent most of the last few months in absolute fear: what if we run out of wood, what if we can’t keep the house warm enough, what if we can’t afford the payment, what if more things keep breaking and we can’t afford to maintain them…

yes! 🥹 so cute I could cry.

this is literally my dream and I’m scared every day that now I have to figure out how to not fuck it up but also it still hasn’t fully integrated that this our house and this is my life now.

the bigness of this gift feels like a gasp or a tidal wave; it feels like I don’t deserve it.

it’s an astounding thing I thought would never happen and that it was too big a longing to let myself desire and now it’s real and I actually live here and heat my house with a wood stove and plant native plants and encounter bald eagles almost every day and it’s unbelievable.

feels very solstice appropriate to be doing this tonight. gonna start a simmer pot, the stove is lit, I’m home alone tonight to putter around and clean and root into this place we’re making our home.

not enough people have been able to match my excitement about these drawer liners but I have been waiting months to afford them which means I never unpacked my kitchen in our new cabin-home. But today I finally started unpacking all the kitchen bins!

I’m not sure I’m ready to sell the original of this piece but I would for the right offer.
