I think part of the reason why we feel so sad is that we’re too far away from raw, numinous experiences. Like you know that post with a picture of the unpolluted night sky where people are reacting in terrified awe not realizing that’s what the stars really look like?

I think it’s like. You need vivid experiences that can’t be easily repeated. You need elemental things. I don’t mean this in a crunchy hippie just-try-yoga way I mean this in a way that’s like…we’re inside all the time and most things we experience are scheduled ahead of time. When there are sidewalks, we follow them, and there’s always some boring place to go. You need things that no one has any control over and that no one can sell for money.

You need to be outside in a storm and see lightning strike very close to you. You need to meet a wild creature and have to stand very still and almost not even breathe and watch before it vanishes. You need to be alone somewhere very big. You need to go to a place because it looks interesting and be at the wrong place at the wrong time. You need to climb over a fence instead of going in by the gate. You need to hear the exploding sound of a huge flock of birds flying. You need to watch live theater performed by kids on a low budget. You need to be lost somewhere. You need to be barefoot somewhere. You need to sing with other people who are singing. You need to get soaking wet with all of your clothes on and come inside shivering.

having to come to terms with the fact that love is not an everlasting performance in which you attempt to retain the attention of your significant other but rather a release of control and putting faith into them and trusting them to choose to stay with you no matter what you have to offer

to love and be loved is to rest

there are still many textile-related things that cannot or at least have not been successfully automated. sewing isn’t automated, for example, but you can use machines to make the process faster as long you have a human to operate them. no article of clothing was produced entirely without human hands. all knit items like chunky sweaters had to be manipulated on a knitting machine by somebody. all seams on your garments were sewn by somebody.

then there’s the things that don’t even have machines at all. crochet (unlike knitting) does not have any machines capable of replicating it so whenever you see something that has been crocheted even if it’s a small part of a larger piece that was done with a crochet hook by hand. it’s the same with basketry - machines cannot weave baskets. no machines were involved in making any woven basket you see, that was 100% a human being putting the entire thing together so it could be sold for $2 at dollar tree. you ever have a piece of furniture with woven rattan on it, that was also made by a person, no machine involved.

these things all take a very long time, less the more often you do it but they still take a lot of time. how much did you buy it for? how much were they paid for making that? i can’t look at anything the same way anymore. i look at my pillow cases and i wonder whose hands made them, where they are right now, if they’re okay. how many did they make every day? so many it probably blurs together, they don’t even remember making the one i got. how much were they paid for it? i don’t know but i know the answer is that it was not enough. idk these things swirl around my head all the time now

happy november 5th everyone
