Please comment how you feel when you're underwater. I love a piece from the novel All the Light We Cannot See where the ocean is described as being able to contain everything everyone could ever feel. I feel very raw underwater and much more able to let out all my feelings.

@merman_garnet painted this watercolor of me and I absolutely love people who create art. Once I have a frame this is going on my wall as a reminder of how awesome being able to connect with people around the world and across oceans is. Thank you so much @merman_garnet! #merman #watercolor #sharedhumanity #art #mermaid
HISTORY/ HERSTORY
Before the loud modern debates about “Why is that sista with a White man?” Before Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner (1967)… Before “race” became the loudest lens we use… Pause. Because history tells a quieter, more uncomfortable truth. If you go back far enough… someone in your bloodline did not look like you. Not metaphorically. Literally. In the 1400s, Portuguese ships reached the coasts of West and Central Africa. If you think they were only trading… your history teacher left something out. Look at Cape Verde (1462) — a society built from African women and European men. Look at Brazil (1500s onward) — one of the most mixed populations on earth. Look at parts of Angola (1500s–1600s) — where cultures and families blended over generations. That’s not opinion. That’s record. Now pause here: 👉🏾 What does it mean… if mixing isn’t new? What if it’s actually one of the oldest human patterns? Long before modern categories, people moved. Traders. Sailors. Soldiers. Families. Across the Mediterranean. Across the Atlantic. Across deserts and oceans. And wherever people met… They didn’t just exchange goods. They formed relationships. They built families. They created you. So if we’re still arguing about love today… What else have we misunderstood? Because here’s the part that humbles all of us: That man you judge… That woman you question… Could carry the same bloodline you do. Just further back. Hidden in time. History is not as divided as we were taught. It is layered. Connected. Intertwined. And maybe the real truth is this: We’ve always been closer than we think. 👉🏾 So the question isn’t just “Who should love who?” It’s this: What would change… if we understood how deeply connected we already are? If this made you pause, pass it on. Because someone out there is still seeing the world in lines…when history has always moved in circles.

Today's brief disruption at the Jack Smith hearing in Washington—a verbal flare-up during recess that brought Capitol Police in—feels like a small but telling crack in the facade of orderly democratic process. No one was hurt, proceedings resumed, but the moment lingers: when passion overrides procedure, trust erodes just a little more. From an Australian vantage, it's a quiet prompt to cherish the relative civility we still manage in public life here—and to guard it carefully. Institutions endure when people choose restraint over rage.
Maybe gender isn’t the point because what we actually recognize is presence, resilience, and clarity. https://dualisticunity.com/i-grew-up-admiring-strong-women-thats-how-i-learned-gender-wasnt-the-point/
