One of the things that gets me about this kind of smug privilege is how CERTAIN some people are that their mouth fart could change your life. People who can’t match their socks to their belt really think that their every utterance is the only thing can push you into greatness.

Dahlia: spherical.

Peachy colored dahlia with small neatly arranged petals, arranged such that the flower is basically spherical. Cropped square to highlight the flower's roundness, bits of blurry green background visible in the corners of the photo.

Comrade card for 8/22/2025. Happy Friday.

Watercolor: monthly calendar with different colors blots in each day. On the right, where saturday and sunday would be, are words by Audre Lorde: The decision for survival is not something you make once, you make it over and over again.

The #Artemis II livestream continues to be the best thing on the internet. 😍 The return-to-Earth live coverage begins at 6:30pm Eastern (in about 90 minutes) with splashdown in the Pacific scheduled for 8:07pm Eastern. www.youtube.com/live/m3kR2KK...

Pope Leo XIV carried the cross across all fourteen stations for over an hour. The prayers named children who had been “taken away and imprisoned during protests, deported by policies devoid of compassion, shipwrecked on desperate journeys of hope, killed in war zones, and wiped out in death camps.”

Dear Mama,
Here we are in the midst of a pandemic and still...
Still there is sleep & washing up & brushing our teeth before bed.
Still there is fruit & yoghurt & salads & bread & cheese & beans & chicken.
Still there is coffee & tea & kombucha & wine & plenty of clean water (for us).
Still there are books & music & magazines & emails & essays & letters & poems & films.
Still there is heartbreak (of course) & tragedy (of course) & anger (of course).
Still there is the big hill at Mt. Tabor & flowers, so many flowers.
Still there is work—yours, mine, ours.
Still there is the sun, rising a little earlier each morning, & setting a little later each evening.
Still there is the rain, reminding us of our place.
Still there is your downstairs, & our upstairs, & all the places we meet in the middle.
Still there is me, your daughter, & me, a mother.
And still, thank God, there is you-
my mother-
anchoring this whole endeavor, this whole undertaking, this whole life,
even in the midst of a pandemic.
Happy Mother's Day, Mama.
Your girl,
Urs

Since so many people are fangirling over Carney's supposed "historic" speech in Davos, I want to offer an alternative reading. This is not left cynicism, but a sober reading of imperial positioning in this moment. 1) Carney squarely positioned Canada as a middle power.

You can become disabled or homeless in an instant. Even if you’re young and healthy. Even if you have a “good job” and a back up plan. Even if you think you’re doing everything right. Disability and poverty are not moral failings. They can happen to anyone.

Anyway, what I’m trying to say is that I’ve been struggling and I’m glad I’m working to get help. I think a lot of us have built up a tolerance for suffering but what if we don’t have to suffer? What if life doesn’t have to feel like it’s killing us? If you have resources that can help, get help.
