God, a couple months ago I tripped and I smashed my face up and I really fucked up my glasses and I haven’t been able to close them since. And I caught my eye and smashed my lip up and I got this deep-tissue bruise. And it was the first time I felt a very severe degree of pain out of nowhere, really suddenly—this is long after I wrote “For Real”… But there was really no mistaking it. That was a very real sensation. You have these moments where you’re like—Do I like this girl? Do I love this girl? Or do I just like her? Do I want a ham sandwich or do I want a turkey sandwich? Are my political beliefs just somebody else’s beliefs that I’ve simply adopted or are they what I really think? But when your head is smashing into the concrete you don’t have that kind of question about whether it’s a real sensation. And ultimately, that’s what’s going to unmake us all—smashing up against the physical reality of death and decay, and being unmade.

And I think that we want it, on some level. Or some people want it, maybe. Or we don’t want it but we wonder about it and we wonder about who we’ll be in that situation and what it will do to us.

There is so much to break down in this world other than each other.

I'm really interested in and amazed by lots of stuff. Particularly:
- being queer as fuck
- breaking everything down (other than each other)
- active consent
- sex-positive education
- anti-oppressive language
- reproductive freedom
- rejecting the gender binary
- cooking and eating food
- dumpster diving
- appreciating
- being punk as fuck
- Doing It Yourself
- the ocean
- spoken word poetry
- spinning in circles
- blowing bubbles
- learning
- teaching
- sharing
- this little blue ball on which we live
- the solar system, galaxy and universe it is floating in
- honesty
- conflict resolution
- books
- direct action
- adventuring
- flexing my brain muscle
- being generally amazed
- you

Some people who are incredibly important to me died very recently, so this blog is likely to contain lots of stuff about death and grief and suicide. If this is triggering for you or you don't wish to see it for any reason, let me know and I will do what I can to help.

I also probably will post a bunch of punk music because that's pretty important right now.
