Amen “The cutting up of the real effects the real itself” hyper-individualistic lenses cut up the realities of nature into isolated pieces This effects all of nature itself Just from *looking* at the world and each other that waty let alone how it drives actions entangled interdependent

I had a dream about shopping with my dead mother for a last minute function I had to attend and the only thing we found that felt like it would work was a tree dress with a breezy silk shoulder wrap

Having a second dip into this text - which was delicious and dense and required a pause but stayed in my primary stack. I’m noticing that I can’t understand what I am reading, and almost skip to the next paragraph But then a spontaneous image, or his image pops in like 💡 Interesting reading

Everybody is furious at Mr Lipton for saying this but it appears to be true. Here's the WSJ:
Leavitt had a reputation for being helpful to inquiring reporters: Replies to requests for comment often arrived with friendly exclamation points-even if she had just berated some of them for a "stupid question" in the briefing room moments before.

One you might find surprising. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt & members of her team have been extremely helpful in responding to questions I raise. Regardless of public facing commentary, privately they are willing to engage and address questions. And I have appreciated that. Thank you

I would say that this reflects journalists who cannot recognize the kind of disorganized attachment that frequently emerges around abuse.

From her body parts he builds the stars and constellations, built arbor lined pathways using her ribs, her liver becomes the crescent moon. Her saliva becomes the clouds in the sky and the rains that fall.
From her head he forms the mountains and
springs and streams emerge from her wounds. The Tigris and Euphrates pour out from her eyes. Her breasts form treeless hills and fells, her thigh becomes the central post which hold up the skies.

I gotta stop trying to see through the distances
Keep walking, though there's no place to get to.
Don't try to see through the distances.
That's not for human beings.
Move within,
But don't move the way fear makes you move.
If you are irritated by every rub, how will your mirror be polished?
Start a huge, foolish project, like Noah...it makes absolutely no difference what people think of you.

This is how the cat begs - about 5 x a day- for catnip which we keep in the drawer above the cupboard.
A cat has opened the lower cupboard and stands half in half out & looks back at me hoping I’ll give him MORE catnip immediately after I gave him catnip

Dream of finding an elder parrot, forgotten for many years in a bottom drawer- I felt crushed that I had left it there for so long and it was very kind about it, very dehydrated. I wondered how it survived but I was so grateful to be reunited. It placed its head on my chest and sighed
I wanted to spend more time with the parrot than the dream permitted so I drew it as a way to hang out for a while. Yellow headed. Green body. Red eye.
