SPIRITED AWAY 千と千尋の神隠し 2001, dir. Hayao Miyazaki
the poet at seventeen, Larry Levis
“I don’t like this expression “First World problems.” It is false and it is condescending. Yes, Nigerians struggle with floods or infant mortality. But these same Nigerians also deal with mundane and seemingly luxurious hassles. Connectivity issues on your BlackBerry, cost of car repair, how to sync your iPad, what brand of noodles to buy: Third World problems. All the silly stuff of life doesn’t disappear just because you’re black and live in a poorer country. People in the richer nations need a more robust sense of the lives being lived in the darker nations. Here’s a First World problem: the inability to see that others are as fully complex and as keen on technology and pleasure as you are.”
— Teju Cole (via feminizt)
Joy Sullivan, from "Late Bloomer", Instructions for Traveling West
The wound, / the past, is still bleeding.

My Sister, Who Died Young, Takes Up The Task By Jon Pineda A basket of apples brown in our kitchen, their warm scent is the scent of ripening, and my sister, entering the room quietly, takes a seat at the table, takes up the task of peeling slowly away the blemished skins, even half-rotten ones are salvaged carefully. She makes sure to carve out the mealy flesh. For this, I am grateful. I explain, this elegy would love to save everything. She smiles at me, and before long, the empty bowl she uses fills, domed with thin slices she brushes into the mouth of a steaming pot on the stove. What can I do? I ask finally. Nothing, she says, let me finish this one thing alone.
doing things at the right age is literally a made up concept. you can start/pursue anything at any age. btw.

“My delicious dilemma is language. How I structure it. How the fiction of history structures me. And as I’ve become more and more shattered, my tongue has become tangled … I am glassed in by language as well as by the barriers of my dark skin and financial embarrassment.”
— — Wanda Coleman, from “Primal Orb Density,” Wicked Enchantment

Stone Butch Blues

when vincent van gogh said “but you must love with a high, serious intimate sympathy, with a will, with intelligence, and you must always seek to know more thoroughly, better, and more”
europe: *is allowing thousands of migrants drown in the mediterranean, is passing anti muslim laws against minarets and head coverings, is experiencing a rise of neonazis, still benefits from colonizing the entire world, refuses to pay reperations for enslaving africans, is responsible for building the racist system in america, committed mass genocide in the name of white supremacy, destroyed communities of color*
white europeans: good thing our countries aren’t like america lmfao
