"Growing Around Grief"

Lois Tonkin, 1996

[eternal--return]

This is the most important thing I’ve learned about grieving. It never goes away. Time doesn’t make it smaller. Time, if you do the work, makes you bigger. Self expansion is key. Self expansion through creativity and passion and communication. My grief used to be all of me. Now it is a part of me. An important part, but just a part. I love this visualization so much.

[thegeekstressart]

I live by the motto, “if you can’t buy what you want, make it.” And this motto came to life recently in the form of a floral mosaic dining table for my back deck.

Our deck table had been showing its age already when the wind caught the umbrella and cracked it. I wanted to replace it with a mosaic table because I’d been enjoying that art form recently. But I couldn’t get one the size I wanted so I got creative.

I spent a few weeks looking for tile and figuring out a very loose design concept. I started by picking a limited set of tile shapes and a color palette.

Once the tiles arrived I had a piece of particle board cut to size for the base and I experimented with different motifs until I settled on a selection of floral shapes that gave me plenty of variety to fill space without locking me into one repeating pattern.

And then I was off! I basically doodled my way around the table, attaching tiles with Weld Bond (I went through 4 full bottles!) and rocking out to the K-Pop Demon Hunters soundtrack.

Once the florals were done it was time for the background…

Over 3,800 1cm glass tiles make up the not-design part of the design. It went pretty quickly though because I just had to fill the space, leaving room for grout.

Once I had the tile done, my husband assisted with disassembly and reassembly. We used the legs off the original table for this one (waste not).

One huge bucket of black grout later…

She is finished.

I enjoyed making it and just looking at it makes me so happy - I can’t wait for all the dinners we’ll have around this table 🌼❤️

lil philosophy moment for the jealous girls

From an existentialist perspective, jealousy protects us from the truly existential threat of losing our loved one’s affirmation of our being. it’s bad faith / self deceptive because it relieves us of the work it takes to actually build and strive for meaning and value and instead we simply want it to be bestowed upon us. Jealousy in women is endemic because we live in a culture which has taught us from a young age that our worth and meaning is contingent on man’s ability to perceive it within us. It places us in a perpetual state of dependency on men and in a constant state of rivalry and competition with other women.

From a Marxist perspective, jealousy is a product of bourgeois love morality — it’s about having a proprietary attitude towards our loved ones. Under capitalism, we come to view other people’s entire being as property and possession. We feel we are owed our beloved’s complete interiority.

Jealousy in both cases is rooted in possessiveness and has a social function: it protects the social institution of ownership, property, possession. It is not a triangulation between owner, object, and rival — but rather a quadrangulation between owner, object, rival/trespasser, and public. There are forms of jealousy which are institutionally suppressed (in legitimate competition for property) and forms which are encouraged (at the illegitimate trespass onto one’s property), because they preserve the fundamental institution of property
