There are things about my life that would puzzle 20-year-old me, but I think they would be most astonished to learn that I am still alive. As a young person, I never expected to be 45. I think they'd be very interested to learn how that happened, and also happy that I have so much love in my life.
So I have an answer to that question about whether my 20 yr old self would approve of me. last night I had a hot flash and pulled out something full my bag to fan myself with, and it was a copy of a zine I have been disseminating called "Anarchist Prisoner Solidarity" lol
