Emplacement: experiencing connection with place

Thoughts on finding connection within a space so that a space becomes a place and on the sacredness of landscape.

Men are suffering their gender as much as women in different, often hidden ways

Men are suffering their gender as much as women in different, often hidden ways

Gender is a performance, and the performance given to men is toxic, and so men are feeling personally attacked. We can do much better. We must.

Breakdown in Gym Class

A memory keeps resurfacing, of overwhelm and shutdown during a gym class back in elementary school.

So I wrote my younger self a letter

What if the ghost/monster in my childhood bedroom was just future me thinking so intently about my childhood self that I projected myself backward to him, to support him in his childhood isolation? Anyway, I wrote my childself a letter. (It’s kind of sad, but also extremely not-sad, even uplifting… you’ll see!)

Cardboard Art: I Understand

Aeschylus, Eumenides 276: ἐγὼ διδαχθεὶς ἐν κακοῖς ἐπίσταμαιπολλῶν τε καιροὺς, καὶ λέγειν ὅπου δίκησιγᾶν θ᾽ ὁμοίως· ἐν δὲ τῷδε πράγματιφωνεῖν ἐτάχθην πρὸς σοφοῦ διδασκάλου. Taught among evils, I understandthe right time for many things and when it is just to speakand to be silent alike; but in this matterI have been instructed to speak by a wise teacher. The whole sentence is pretty great,…

The Two-State Solution is an Obvious Bad Idea

How are things in West Germany and East Germany? Oh. Wait… You mean there’s only the one united Germany? But in South Africa partition worked, right?

No. Apartheid in South Africa was put to an end by a single united South African Republic.

But surely, I mean, the whole partition of India and Pakistan thing… I mean that was good right? We’ve got two states coexisting peacefully,…

It’s been a year

and I have this feeling like even if I ripped off my own skin with my own hands it wouldn’t be enough to match even only my own grief-stricken rage. An itch at the back of my skull, just pull, rip it off. This skin is a lie. This skin is murderous. This skin has been fed a diet of imperial propaganda dressed as truth, dressed as Pax Americana. If only it could shroud Palestine from harm, this…

Reading List: Reintegrating with Nature

Reading List: Reintegrating with Nature. A reading list for thinking of ourselves not only as part of nature but as nature ourselves. (Yeah, I thought I’d already put this up a year ago lol whoops)

Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants. Robin Wall Kimmerer. (2013). By far the most important book I’ve ever picked up, which I knew after the first chapter but suspected after Jessica Hernandez (Fresh Banana Leaves, 2022) recommended it on Science Friday last spring. I started reading it last summer, but I’ve been spacing it out, a chapter or…

Ocean won’t save Palestine

To witness the destruction of Palestine from afar is an unholy luxury, and it is traumatic, even at this distance, while no one does anything, and those who could help have been forced away. Gods help us all. Poem after the jump.
