same energy to me
image of the top of a cup of coffee. The coffee has two bubbles for eyes and a break in the foam that forms a wide, rather upsetting smile, reminiscent of Venom. The text reads: “good morning, have smile day.” Also the top of the coffee cup is undulating slightly? Like someone added an affect to the image to make it look like it was sloshing around.

Got a cubano and some collards at Revival 🥹 had to post a pic to fully claim this social media space…
An image of a wood table with a half eaten sandwich on one plate and a half eaten bowl of collard greens on another. There are a few water glasses and sauce bottles.

I did have to google to figure out how to spell his name and when I glanced at the description I misread a key word as “horny”

I can’t believe I got an entire theology degree & never heard about the Public Universal Friend

“After suffering a severe illness in 1776, the Friend claimed to have died & been reanimated as a genderless evangelist named the Public Universal Friend, [shunning] both birth name & gendered pronouns.”
Portrait drawing of the Public Universal Friend from a 1821 biography. They are wearing some kind of black robe or billowy shirt with a white frock/scarf. They have short hair on top of their head which looks almost shaved, and curls coming down on both sides of their neck. Almost looks a bit like a mullet. The proportions of their face seem a bit off, with large, wide set eyes, a small nose, small mouth, and almost no room between their nose and mouth. The perspective is a bit off as well, like the drawing is some combination between a 3/4 profile and straight on. They have a small smile and a slightly wrinkled brow, making them look concerned/confused but also bemused.

Recommended read today! “How to Stay Alive and Horny Under Authoritarianism” poems by Sophia Parnok translated by @swordsjew.bsky.social

buttondown.com/theswordandt...
I am thinking of her now because she succeeded, throughout one of the most strife-ridden periods of a strife-ridden country’s history, to retain her questing and loving soul. Her poems are not about revolution or hunger or exile or suffering. But they could hardly be any more dramatic, with their focus on love in a time of carnage. Parnok managed to keep her libido and capacity for love intact without the buffer of wealth or station or political affiliation to bulwark her safety. And she loved and lived with a passion so enormous it is worth resurrecting and recalling, even as she has faded into history.
