My partner, who experienced a lot of trauma in retaliation for an accident that hurt someone, has experienced spontaneous and beautiful joy for the first time in almost a year. And I got to see it. Truly one of the most beautiful things.

Elegant photos, eloquent words.

many of you are working overtime to validate the humanity of people who are intentionally, systemically, and methodologically working to invalidate your humanity

God damn it can Becky Chambers write a fucking book. Every single one moves me almost to tears. What a gift.

art is about finding the best way to manifest something. not the easiest way to manifest something

Ice age art, reading history, looking at fossils and learning about the earth, walking in the woods, looking at the sky, learning about birds and flowers, swimming in lakes, reading about death and dying, learning about justice as it moves in our daily lives as kindness - my hope enrichment
