in a world where Every Single GodDamned Thing is wrapped in like, oil and blood and cruel tangles of consequence that baffle the mind I think it IS healing to see the male goldfinches at my new apartment ravenously eating the seeds off my upstairs neighbor’s sunflowers. what if you came and ate my many seeds and in exchange I maybe grew in more places. it is ancient and elegant and all parties consent upfront except my neighbor, who is very excited to see the goldfinches but was kind of hoping to eat some sunflower seeds this season

please keep talking about the grace and rocky insane dynamics. they are NOT having negotiated safe sex they are doing that shit in the same way they did the fishing on adrian, badly planned, without contingency and at serious risk of injury if something goes wrong you are very correct i think

in one video log grace can be seen wearing a xenonite neck brace and most people assume it must have been an injury sustained during the infamous adrian (the planet) fishing incident or as a result of the many other perils of being in space but one person bravely points out "do you think the 400 lb rock alien tried to sit on his face and broke his neck" and they get flamed for it but they die doing what they loved. meanwhile on the hail mary somewhere on the way to erid grace's vertebrae are mostly functional again and they're gearing up for round 2 with adherence to OSHA regulations this time.

Hang on youve got me thinking about grace rocky messy under/unnegotiated primal roleplay while im on the clock... you should keep talking

all i'm saying is with the eridian taboo and cultural anxieties surrounding the act of consumption because of the intimate logistical nature of the act, human cultural anxieties about predatory "alien" others influencing a broad catalogue of eroticism and horror, the unavoidable associations of predation with sexual violence, the starvation trauma, and the multiple food and sex holes between them, they would get up to some crazy shit with the euphemism "eating out"

God is relation, full stop. He is like reality in this regard. Consider an electron, the fundamental unit of all matter. No one has ever seen one. They really don't "exist" until we turn our attention to them. The physicist Marcelo Gleiser says that "exist" may be too strong a word to use for an electron. I take God's existence to be much the same, though for God "exist" is too weak a word. We don't know what the existence of God is. We have no idea what the word "exist" even means in the context of God. What we do know—or what I know, I should say—is that God doesn't exist until I turn my attention to him. Relation brings him into being, or, more accurately, enables his being to be perceived, experienced, shared. My attention—and the precise quality of that attention—is absolutely involved. I realize this is unorthodox at best, heretical at worst. But it is my experience of being in the world and of being with God. "The feeling remains," as Teresa of Avila says, "that God is on the journey, too."

I actually genuinely don't care if people wear fetish gear out in public like I don't care. This is one of those things people always want you to be outraged about but I genuinely don't give a fuck I'm sorry
